The LB 01 takes its rugged profile from the hiking boot and brings it into the city. That same stance now wears ETQ's own refined finish. Built for pavement rather than a summit. What started as outdoor gear ends up far more civilised than the trail it left behind.

True to size. Between sizes, take the bigger one.

  • Handmade in Portugal, in a family-run factory we have worked with for years. Designed in the Netherlands.
  • Hand-lasted, then inspected twice before it leaves the factory.
  • Between 20 and 40 separate components in every pair, put together by hand.
  • Welted construction: the sole is stitched to the upper along a strip of leather instead of glued to it. It is the slower way to build a shoe, and it holds together far longer than a bonded sole.
  • Mediterranean suede, tanned at LWG certified tanneries in Italy and Spain. Soft from the first wear, and it takes the shape of your foot within a week.
  • A reinforced toe and heel counter inside the shoe, so it still holds its shape wear after wear.
  • A full leather lining that softens with wear and settles to the shape of the foot.
  • A rugged rubber outsole with a deeper tread, for ground that is not flat.
  • A removable memory foam insole that softens to the shape of your foot and holds it there.
  • The insole lifts straight out, so you can put in a fresh one or wear your own orthotics.
  • The ETQ signature square at the heel.
  • Metal hiker eyelets bring a proven outdoor detail into a refined silhouette.
  • A reusable travel bag comes in the box, for wherever the shoes go next.
  • The white box is the shipping box, so there is no second carton to throw away.

Mediterranean Suede

Suede is cut from the underside of the hide and sanded to a fine, velvety nap. Ours is true to its name: tanned on the Mediterranean by Gruppo Mastrotto in Arzignano, Italy, an LWG Gold certified tannery, and Sanchez Agullo in Alicante, Spain, LWG approved. Every hide is inspected on finish, colour, surface and thickness before cutting. Quality shows in the nap: short, dense and even, with deep, uniform colour that gains character over time.

Care
Brush regularly with a suede brush, in the direction of the nap. Apply a water-and-stain protector before first wear and after cleaning. If it gets wet, let it dry naturally and brush the nap back up.

Handmade in Portugal.

Cut from premium nappa, full grain and suede, then built on the last by makers who do little else. It takes years to master a shoe. We're still finding ways to make it better.

One box. Nothing wasted.

Every pair ships in a crisp white box built to be the shipping box too — no second carton, nothing thrown away. Inside, a reusable ETQ travel bag for wherever they go next. A detail you notice after you buy, not just before.

Endless comfort.

A structured silhouette on the outside. Inside, a memory-foam insole with airflow channels that move moisture with every step. The kind of shoe you forget you're wearing — and keep on long after you meant to.
