Safaris – a rugged companion for every adventure

These sturdy over-the-ankle shoes have been manufactured by hand for over one hundred years in Spain. They reached cult status in the 1980’s.

Now this popular boot is back – with a modern look. They are hand-made with soft leather, chrome free and naturally dyed. The Safaris from Sal de Mar® are lined with organic leather, offering optimal comfort and freedom of movement. These shoes could not be more versatile. The Safaris with the Velcro closure are loved by small children, because they can easily put their own shoes on. For older children there are the Safaris with laces. Two sets of laces, in two different colors, come with every pair. The available color combinations satisfy every wish: there are many vibrant colors to choose from with contrasting stitching and laces. In addition, the Safaris are also offered with the smart Budapest design. Boys and girls alike are guaranteed to find their favorite Safaris.

A continuous seam edging and reinforced back make the Safari a rugged companion for every adventure in all kinds of weather. Depending on the temperature, the removable insole can be inserted with either the leather side or the 100% natural wool side up. The Safari is also available with a warm 100% natural wool lining.

Shoe maintenance
Our fine vegetable tanned leather, with its naturally occurring marks and imperfections, is part of our natural concept and makes each pair unique. Natural leather does not require any special care. When they are soiled, they can simply be wiped off with a soft brush or a damp cloth. To increase durability, a leather grease or leather oil may be applied. Wet shoes can be left to air-dry. To prevent shoes from drying out or fading, do not store them in direct sunlight.

Some minor color variations may occur due to the use of natural dyes.
