A pair of Dutch brand TD Leather Boots' most stunning, sturdy shoes. That's what I want for my birthday this year - yes, I am already dreaming of birthday presents, even though it's not until 3 months that I'll be gettng any. But seriously though, these boots, made in a joint effort with local designers and shoemakers in Ethiopia, look like a somewhat more elegant and more unique version of Dr. Martin's to me. I mean, thats what dreams are made of right?!
And even better, TD Leather Boots ensures that their bootmakers work in a proper factory, in good conditions and that they get payed a fair price for their craftsmanship. They want to create sustainable employment for their workers and they've also embarked on a mission to help improve the socio-economic situation in the local communities in Ethiopia. In 2018 for instance, they've helped the school of the village of Ocha, by providing a full school year's worth of materials to 600 students!
