Magical Shoes provide one of the best ground feels available in winter boots. The Chestnut Brown has a total stack of only 6.5 mm, whereas the Black has a total stack height of 7 mm making the Alaskan Winter Boot is perfect for anyone familiar with barefoot shoes and who has worn them for an extended period. However, for those new to barefoot shoes, these boots may lack sufficient cushioning and could cause some discomfort.

With such a low stack height, there is always concern that the boots may not offer enough protection from the cold ground. As this is a newer model, we cannot definitively assess its performance, but it does feature an inner wool lining to provide warmth.

Magical Shoes does not offer any official care instructions for these boots but does sell a Beeswax leather conditioner that will ensure the leather is well kept.

The simple and elegant style of leather boots makes them perfect for everyday use as well as for more formal meetings. The classic cut will complement any outfit you wear. Incorporating all the essential features of barefoot shoes allows you to wear them for most of the day while still experiencing complete comfort.
