Deeply Hued Suede Paired with Natural Stitching Offers a Fresh Impression

The "WILLIAM II BOOT," a boot iteration of the popular "WILLIAM" model, was first released in 2009 and continues to be highly sought after. Its reputation is built on meticulous attention to both design and comfort. The interior of the upper is unlined for ease of wear, finished with supple, high-quality leather for an exceptionally soft feel that conforms comfortably to the foot.

This season, the "WILLIAM II BOOT" is presented in two suede colors: Dark Brown and Midnight (Navy). Both feature deep tones, with natural stitching providing a striking contrast. This distinctive stitching is a unique specification for the Japan-exclusive model. The active October sole, suitable for wear even on rainy days, adds a touch of casual elegance.
