Growing up in Japan Daiki Suzuki developed an early appreciation for the robust functionality and dependable quality of the styles being made and worn in the America. That later became the foundation of his label Engineered Garments where he reimagines outdoor gear workwear and a range of classic staples through a fresh innovative perspective. We teamed up with him to develop a pair of limited-edition releases handcrafted by our artisans in Port Washington Wisconsin. The collaboration started in Daiki's personal footwear collection. Inspired by a pair of our Sun Valley boots that he's had for years he reconceived the archival style as a more refined lower profile shoe. From the black metal hardware to the substantial scalloped Goodyear welt every detail of the design was handpicked by him and reflects his distinctive vision for reengineering heritage designs for today.
