psk playa... the dustiest boot of the pack! each playa model is hand finished and washed endlessly with lava, a process which was developed and remains exclusive to pskaufman... the outcome? boots that have already trekked 10,000 miles in the desert without ever being worn!
in an effort to improve the sustainability of our products, we've slowly begun switching leathers to 100% veg tanned as they meet our quality and comfort standards. we’re just getting started & are excited for you to see what we have in the works...
we love veg tanned leather for it's uniqueness, it's display of character and the silky feel. please note that each pair is completely different from the next due to the natural tanning process and may feature wrinkles, color discrepancies, knicks, spots, etc. all of which are characteristics of our new 100% veg tanned leather.
introducing the FREEWAY construction: inspired by the desire for modernity in the 50s and 60's… but mashed up with the work and western boot ethic of practicality. this construction features all the same details that make our shoes distinctive: soft leather uppers and signature turquoise leather lining and footbed that forms to your foot in time, making incredibly comfortable boots. hand-lasted and sewn with a leather welt and leather midsole by genuine goodyear-welt construction, then nailed in the shank area for iron-like strength. leather outsoles, a stacked leather heel and toplifts of recycled tires using the LightTread (TM) process add lightweight flexibility, comfort and durability! the entire shoe is then hand-finished to ensure each shoe has its own unique character.
