Painted Hills Trail — Stingray in Honeycomb Gold

Introducing the Painted Hills Trail in Honeycomb Gold — one of the most joyful, sun-soaked boots we have ever made. The foot is wrapped in genuine stingray in a warm, golden honeyyellow, while the tall shaft blooms with a hand-cut floral inlay in vivid turquoise — wildflowers climbing the leg, set against the gold like a summer meadow.

Stingray gives this boot its glow. Its naturally pebbled, pearl-like surface catches the light in a way no other leather can, so the honey-gold seems to shift and shimmer as you move. It is exotic, rare and instantly recognisable — a true statement boot. Because every skin is unique, no two pairs are ever exactly the same.

Set on a classic pointed toe and a stacked western heel, with a tall, leg-lengthening shaft, the Painted Hills Trail is pure handcrafted Western style — the meeting point of bold color, rare exotic leather and timeless craftsmanship for anyone who values objects that are made well and only get better with age.

Why “Honeycomb Gold” ? This color is summer at our cabin in Montana. It is the warm gold of the wildflowers that cover the meadows, and of the honey our bees make from them — that thick, glowing amber-yellow you only get straight from the hive. The turquoise flowers climbing the shaft are those same wildflowers, captured in leather. Wearing Painted Hills Trail in Honeycomb Gold is like carrying a Montana summer — flowers, sunshine and all — wherever you go.

Fun fact: stingray, the toughest leather there is

Stingray is one of the most resilient leathers on earth. Its surface is covered in tiny calcified beads — the same skin once known as shagreen, prized for centuries by Japanese samurai to wrap their sword handles because it never slipped and never wore out. It is naturally water resistant, scratch-resistant and remarkably hard-wearing, which is why a stingray boot is truly a boot for life — it shrugs off everything and only looks better with the years.

How to wear it Let the boots be the star. Honeycomb Gold is bold, so keep the rest simple: a white summer dress, a denim midi, or cropped jeans and a plain tee all let the gold-and-turquoise do the talking. For real impact, lean into the colour clash the boot already loves — a touch of turquoise jewellery, or warm creams and tans that make the honey glow. From a summer wedding or a festival to a night out in the city, these are the boots people remember. They turn the simplest outfit into a moment.

Craftsmanship:

Designed in Montana and handmade in Italy, each pair features a premium leather lining and cushioned insole. Every boot is entirely handmade, with particular care taken over the sole — hand-built and hand-finished for lasting comfort and durability. We use tree resin instead of chemical glue and cork filling for support, so your feet stay dry and comfortable. Each pair is stitched and tooled by hand — frontier-tough boots that conform to the wearer over time and become more beautiful with every year.

A rare, collectible edition Just 5 pairs of this style will ever be made. We craft in deliberately small runs — each colour its own little edition — so the pieces you choose stay rare and personal. They are made to be collected, never mass-produced; and as any true boot lover knows, there is no such thing as too many beautiful pairs in the closet. When this run is gone, it is gone for good.
