Another stylish but practical winter boot from Saute Mouton. Made in Charlesbourg, Québec (just outside of Québec City), Alby has uppers made of combination waterproof nubuck and sheepskin, and the interior lining is 100% wool, all the way up the leg. A zipper on the inside of the leg makes them easy to get on and off (even with the laces), and a thick lug outsole provides plenty of traction in the snow.
Available at Glebe Trotters.
*Sheepskin must be manipulated with care. Sheepskin is more fragile than cowhide and might tear under rough fingers. This is not a weakness, but a normal characteristic of this material.
