Named after Australian bushman to entrepreneur Reginald Murray Williams, RM Williams is known for its sturdy yet stylish boots, as suitable for navigating the city as they are for weekends exploring the countryside.

Embodying the sense of ‘grit’ for which the brand is renowned, the Rickaby lace-up work boot is modelled on an archive style, featuring Italian rough-out suede uppers, 3/4 Goodyear welt construction and a rubber outsole. This rugged boot comes in rich shades that will only improve with time.
