Our Momos Heritage Boots are crafted from the best materials and highest workmanship. We've chosen full grain leather and wool from sheep from the Highlands of Guatemala that are cared for by don Byron Larac in the Momostenango area. The colors are natural dyes from local plants and tree bark. Designed to last beyond the three-week fashion industry's cycle, slow fashion at its best. Go ahead, zoom in, and check how with full grain leather you are getting the real deal, beautifully imperfect!


A note about sizing.
Please measure before you buy! Our sizes run different than other brands and what your child may currently be using, so the best thing is to measure, you may use our Printable Size Chart to select your size.

Our customers report our boots run true to size and they are medium American width. Do not size up, our boots already include extra space for socks and growth.

MEASURE FIRST: Please note that we no longer offer one free size exchange for children's shoes and boots. Always measure first with sock and then look up our size chart for the best fit.

How we make them

A craftsman cuts the leather by hand, choosing the leather carefully and making sure that he follows the grain of the leather, his expert eye tells him the best way to cut each piece. He then sews each piece with accuracy and exactness only seasoned cobblers have mastered. Each upper body is placed then in the shoe form and with skilled and strength, the master cobbler dresses the form and prepares it to attach the leather sole. The soles are then layered, one on top of another, he then cuts and sands the leather to perfection. Once the glue is dry the leather Artisan then carefully builds-up the finish with an expert’s eye, and touch, to achieve an aged patina in just the right places to reflect the aged qualities only time, wear, and frequent care could have accomplished naturally.
