Meet The Elena in Black by Adelante, a lace-up, block-heel boot that leans into classic combat styling with a refined, feminine edge. Handcrafted in Guatemala and made-to-order, this boot offers all the rugged character you want with the comfort and quality construction you need for years of wear.
Materials & Construction: The Elena in Black is built from full-grain leather with a smooth leather lining and structured lacing you can fine-tune for your ideal fit. A blocky, approximately 2-inch stacked leather heel adds height while staying stable, and Goodyear welted construction makes the boot fully resoleable and watertight when properly maintained. Every pair is finished by hand, with careful attention to stitching and edge finishing.
Why It’s Good: Adelante’s commitment to living wages and made-to-order production reduces overstock and channels more value to the artisans who craft your shoes. A Goodyear welt, full-grain leather, and resolable sole all support longevity, which reduces your overall footwear footprint compared to fast-fashion boots that can’t be repaired. Investing in one high-quality black combat-style boot means you can skip multiple lesser-quality purchases down the line.
Style Notes: Wear The Elena in Black with jeans and a tee for a classic off-duty look, or pair it with a slip dress and oversized blazer for a chic, high-low contrast. The sleek black leather also works seamlessly with tailoring—try it with cropped trousers and a knit for a creative-office-friendly uniform that still feels powerful.
