KLEMAN Oxal Noir (Pebbled Leather)

As we sought a footwear option bridging the gap between our traditional Goodyear-welted offerings and the casual feel of Novesta sneakers, our quest led us to the French family-owned Cléon Manufacture and their KLEMAN brand. Beyond the 'Made in France' distinction, KLEMAN emerges as a European hidden gem with a storied lineage and distinctive style.

The Oxal is a casual boot with a moc-toe design that recalls the iconic Padror model. Black grain leather might be considered the basic option for this style - it has a distinctly French vibe and complements KLEMAN’s aesthetic, making it versatile enough to work with everything from casual outfits to more tailored looks.

These Kleman shoes might become your favourite everyday go-to pair, being suitable for almost any occasion when leather-soled shoes would be a bit too much, but a pair of sneakers not enough. Solid construction and thick sole will get you through even the toughest of the weather - puddles, snow and mud are not a problem for those.
