Chippewa Crazy Horse Collection by Ronnie Fieg

Capping off the year with another impressive round of product, Ronnie Fieg presents his Crazy Horse Collection made in collaboration with American bootmakers Chippewa. Offered is some insight from Ronnie himself: “I’ve been ranting about this collection for so long, it felt as if this week would never come. This project means a lot to me, I really feel like i have worked to get to this point where the product speaks for itself. These 6″ classics feature 3H Crazy horse leathers, leather lining, Vibram outsoles, comfort sock liners, leather boot laces, and American Flag lace locks. These leathers are as unique as it gets, the blue and green tones are different from what I have ever seen on boots and the brown “rough out” leather is super high grade.” The boots will see a release on December 3rd through the David Z. flagship (556 Broadway) as well as online at DavidZ.com. Retail is set at $210 USD.
