The history of combat boots: a legendary footwear

Combat boots have a rich and fascinating history dating back to World War I. Originally designed for soldiers, these sturdy boots were essential for facing the harsh conditions of the trenches. Over time, they evolved into a style icon, embraced by various fashion movements.

The Alban combat boots continue this tradition with a modern twist. Perfect for men seeking leather ankle boots that blend heritage and elegance, they are ideal for any occasion, whether it’s a busy day in the city or a casual outing. Crafted in Portugal with high-quality camel suede leather, these boots are built to last.

From tradition to quality for our lace-up ankle boots

The quality of Alban combat boots is rooted in their craftsmanship. Made in Portugal, these ankle boots benefit from the expertise of our factories. The camel suede leather, known for its durability and weather resistance, comes from the finest Portuguese tanneries. Their leather lining and thick, textured sole in leather & rubber ensure optimal comfort and grip for everyday wear.

The Blake stitching technique used to assemble these boots guarantees flexibility and durability for your footwear. The certified OEKOTEX laces and the leather toe cap add a touch of elegance and sophistication. Alban winter combat boots are ideal for keeping your feet warm and dry all day long.

Our Alban combat boots model has a twin at Pied de Biche. The only difference? Their sole, which is not textured. Head over to the Bruce combat boots at Pied de Biche to discover this elegant and sturdy variation.
