Our collaboration with Tate imbues our classic 1460 boot with the attitude of provocative British surrealist and occultist Ithell Colquhoun — whose accomplishments are often overlooked alongside the towering male figures of Surrealism. The boot is made with Backhand leather, providing a new canvas for Colquhoun’s ‘Example of Decalcomania Technique’, which is achieved by randomly applying paint to paper or canvas, pressing another sheet of paper or canvas over the top, and revealing images when peeled apart © Tate. The sole is grooved and secured with our signature yellow welt stitching, and the top of the boot is tagged with our black and yellow heel loop.
