Ross & Snow
|
Ross & Snow is the brainchild of four good friends (the “shoe dogs,” each a longtime veteran of the footwear industry) coming together one evening for wine, laughter and a discussion about the current state of footwear quality. We wanted to see mountain-inspired footwear that was also perfect for the city, footwear that is both functional andcraveworthy, footwear that’s made in a family-owned Italian workshop but designed with American edge. We wanted to produce the kind of shoe or boot we would want to wear all day, the kind that takes us seamlessly from a chilly morning’s breakfast meeting all the way through to drinks in our favorite bar. | Seed / Oct 04, 2017 | |
