Brief description of the product

15th Anniversary Limited Edition

We proudly present a truly rare and reverent release: limited edition Monkey Boots crafted from vegetable-tanned Ezo bear hide.

These exceptional boots are the result of years of quiet patience and deep respect. Since 2022, we’ve been acquiring hides only when a bear passes away naturally in the wild. This approach ensures both ethical sourcing and a profound connection to nature.

The Ezo bear holds deep spiritual significance for the Ainu, the Indigenous people of Hokkaido. Known as Kimun Kamuy, or the mountain god, the bear is revered as both protector and provider, a sacred being whose flesh and hide are considered gifts from the divine.

Each pair of these boots is a tribute not only to the Ezo bear itself, but also to the traditions, beliefs, and landscapes that shaped its legacy. We invite you to walk with us in honoring that spirit.
