Marlene RAAF Boot came from the desire to use a new boot upper technique (The RAAF boot style and associated bellow tongue) with our beautiful and curvy Marlene last and heel and the tough addition of motorcyle tread - used to such great effect with this style. Marlene RAAF Boot is a tough urban design for those of us not afraid to show of our strength, it comes with a bit of extra, empowering and yet super comfy height with our now signature curvy Marlene heel.

In a time when the ‘exclusive’ European brands we so often associate with the term ‘limited edition’, are making their shoes in the tens and hundreds of thousands per style at prices often  exceeding $1300, our micro team at Preston Zly are making around 500 pairs a year – by hand – spread over 16 designs. Now that’s what I call limited edition.
