La Martin

The boot that makes full-grain leather feel inevitable. La Martin is a women’s full-grain cowhide leather martin ankle boot with wool lining — the boot that takes the most considered material in the winter wardrobe and builds it into a silhouette that is structured, warm, and entirely commanding. In Noir or Bordeaux. In two distinct styles. Sizes 35–41. The boot for the woman who understands that the most powerful winter shoe is the one that wears its full-grain leather with quiet authority, carries its wool lining with considered warmth, and fastens with a side zipper that makes every entrance effortless.

Full-grain cowhide leather upper. Wool lining. Thick heel (6–8cm). Round toe. Side zipper. Metal hardware. Two colourways. Two styles. Seven sizes.

Design & Details

• Upper: Full-grain cowhide leather — the defining material decision of La Martin; the first layer cowhide is the highest quality cut of leather, the surface layer of the hide that retains the natural grain and develops a rich patina with wear, making La Martin the most considered and most durable leather boot in the Maison Sole collection
• Lining: Wool — the warmth decision that makes La Martin the most comfortable winter boot; the wool lining provides natural insulation, breathability, and moisture management, making La Martin the most considered winter boot for extended cold-weather wear
• Heel: Thick (6–8cm) — the stability and elevation decision that makes La Martin the most wearable heeled winter boot; the thick heel provides meaningful elevation with the stability of a block heel, making La Martin significantly more comfortable for extended winter wear than a stiletto of equivalent height
• Toe: Round — the generous, comfortable toe shape that gives the foot room and makes La Martin wearable from morning to evening without discomfort
• Closure: Side zipper — the convenience decision that makes La Martin the most effortless winter boot; the side zipper allows the boot to be put on and taken off in one movement
• Hardware: Metal — the considered detail that gives La Martin its structured, architectural character; the metal hardware adds a deliberate, editorial element to the leather silhouette
• Available in: Noir | Bordeaux (two styles each)
• Sizes: 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39 | 40 | 41

The Construction

La Martin is built around three decisions that define its entire premium-winter identity: the full-grain cowhide leather upper, the wool lining, and the side zipper. The full-grain cowhide leather is the quality decision — the first layer of the hide, the surface that retains the natural grain and develops a rich patina with wear, the material that distinguishes La Martin from a corrected-grain or synthetic boot and makes it the most considered winter boot in the wardrobe. The wool lining is the warmth decision — the natural insulation that makes La Martin the most comfortable winter boot for extended cold-weather wear. The side zipper is the convenience decision — the fastening that makes La Martin the most effortless winter boot. The thick heel is the stability decision. The metal hardware is the design decision — the detail that gives La Martin its structured, architectural character.

The Colour Story

Noir — the most authoritative expression of La Martin. Noir full-grain leather develops a rich patina with wear, deepening and becoming more considered with every season. Pairs with everything from tailoring to knitwear for a winter boot that is always considered and always appropriate.

Bordeaux — the most distinctive and most immediately editorial expression of La Martin. Bordeaux full-grain leather develops a patina that deepens and enriches the wine red tone with wear. Pairs with black, camel, cream, and olive for a palette that is rich, warm, and entirely fearless.

Styling Note

Wear La Martin with straight-leg or slim jeans for the most considered winter combination — the thick heel and round toe create a boot that is elevated, structured, and entirely appropriate for a daily winter occasion. Style with a midi skirt or dress for the most feminine winter combination. Noir pairs with everything for the most versatile winter boot; Bordeaux pairs with black and camel for the most considered and most immediately distinctive winter palette. La Martin is the boot that wears its full-grain leather with quiet authority — and becomes more beautiful with every wear.

Size Guide

Available in EU sizes 35–41. The full-grain leather upper softens and moulds to the foot with wear — if between sizes, size down for the most precise fit as the leather will adapt over time.

Care Instructions

• Wipe the full-grain leather upper clean with a soft damp cloth after each wear — avoid soaking the leather or using harsh chemical cleaners
• Apply a leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness and encourage patina development — use a conditioner formulated for full-grain cowhide leather
• Apply a water-resistant spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to protect against winter moisture and salt damage
• Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight after exposure to rain or snow — direct heat can crack the leather and damage the wool lining
• Allow the wool lining to air out after each wear to maintain freshness and insulation quality
• Store with a boot tree to maintain shaft shape and prevent creasing during storage
• Wipe metal hardware with a soft dry cloth after moisture exposure to prevent tarnishing
