When winter began to whisper at our door, I knew I didn’t want to design just another collection. I kept thinking about how the season affects us. The way snow hushes the world. The way fire glows brighter in the cold. The way winter draws out parts of us, we sometimes forget the rest of the year.
That thought stayed with me, and it became the seed of this collection. Instead of focusing on trends or fast fashion, I asked myself a different question: What story do you want to step into this winter?
WHY ARCHETYPES
Shoes are not only what we wear, they are who we become. When I began sketching out this collection, I found myself imagining characters, not models, but figures who could embody the essence of a particular type of person, a mood, or a way of navigating the season. These became the archetypes. They gave the boots depth, turning them from accessories into stories.
From that question, four paths appeared.
THE ROMANTIC DREAMER
The Dreamer is tender, ethereal, and drawn to beauty that passes quickly, sunrise skies, frost on windows, and starlight in fresh snow. I thought of The Poet when I imagined the Rose Dawn boot. She is whimsical yet sophisticated, drifting through the world and gathering fleeting moments as if they were sacred little treasures.
The Poet drifts in Rose Dawn. A Romantic Dreamer who turns the ephemeral into ritual.
THE BOLD REBEL
Where the Dreamer lingers, the Rebel ignites. This archetype doesn’t wait for warmth; it creates it. Daring, vibrant, unafraid to stand apart, the Rebel is fire walking through frost. I thought of The Phoenix as I designed Ember Bloom. Radiant, untamed, she rises from the cold, turning winter itself into her runway.

THE CREATIVE SOUL
The Creative Soul refuses to let winter be gray. To them, every snowfall is a blank canvas, every forest a gallery. Their steps are playful, curious, and expressive. I imagined two figures here.
There is the Eternal Child, who dances in Golden Sunflower, chasing joy in every step and seeing the world as endless play.
And there is The Bohemian, who wanders in Harvest Glow, painting the forest in warmth and carrying autumn’s fire through the depths of winter.

THE NATURE WITCH
The Nature Witch reminds us that winter is not the end but a threshold. Rooted in forests, herbs, and moonlight, she carries the quiet magic of the season.
I imagined The Root Worker, walking in Vintage Garden, drawing strength from the earth and turning ritual into resilience.
And The Mystic, moving in Midnight Orchid, who walks between worlds, carrying the secrets of night and bloom.

THE COLLECTION
This boot collection grew from a simple question that became something bigger than I expected. It reminded me that fashion can be more than just fabric or a trend — it can be a mirror, a story, a small transformation we step into. The inspiration for the campaign came from capsule collections like Demna’s La Familia, where clothes become characters and identities. In the same way, our archetypes are not only designs but portraits of the people who will wear them.
The Winter Boots Collection will be available on October 1st. We hope that when you see it, you’ll not only find a boot you love but also recognize a part of yourself.
So this winter, I am not asking which boots you will wear. I am asking: Which story will you step into?
✨ The Winter Boots Collection launches October 1st. Let the season reveal your archetype.
