Story
Classic Canadian work boots, reimagined in a historic Italian workshop
Durable from the ground up thanks to hand-stitched Goodyear welt construction, Yuketen’s Canadian Work Boots are a global affair. Inspired by vintage logging boots, this pair is crafted in Italy’s Apennine Mountains from start to finish using hand-painted Tuscan leather.

About Yuketen
Every now and then you get a mad scientist-type innovator who seems to bend all the rules. Well turns out that Yuketen’s lead designer, Yuki Matsuda, falls into that category—and it’s totally paid off, since he’s now one of the most revered shoemakers out there. Using traditional shoe-making techniques and heritage styles as his foundation (think work boots and moccasins) he reimagines the whole shoe—adding here, taking away there, resulting in a modern hybrid of all the best-looking and comfiest parts.
