Element – Emerald Collection launch shoe care set giveaway: Elements new Emerald Collection was launched during Bread & Butter in Berlin. At the launch party the first 100 guests received a special gift (made by Seil Marschall), thanks Kiki for the invitation.

The collection launch of this new brand was a success. Not just the gift was great, the party with lots of interesting folks from all over the world and lots of Jameson Whiskey was outstanding.

Ha just found a video posted by Highsnobiety of the event (sec. 9 you can see me in the background near the entrance.)

This week I saw an auction with a fixed price about this boots and it was instantly sold, luckily the seller had another one and I was quicker this time.

The seller got this boots right out of an barn from a friend in Sweden.

Amazing craftsmanship and I guess after some wear and break in he will look awesome. The only thing which troubles me is the leather sole and the iron  parts on it. See the image of the heel, it has a iron rim like a horseshoe. I think about putting a rubber sole onto them, what do you think?

I managed to get some more of this boots, a model from 1943 a bit different design,  leather and I modified it now with a rubber sole.

The only reference I could find about a similar boot is:
Swedish army boot from 1943 on Fedora Lounge. 

If you are interested in this boot, check this seller on ebay.
