Product information
Wildling goes Chelsea boot: slip them on and start walking. Thanks to the elastic inserts on the sides, Bruklin chestnut doesn’t need any laces. The Wildling in adult sizes is a practical everyday shoe that is cut between a mid and high cut and can be paired in a variety of ways thanks to its brown-blue color scheme.
With its Shell Sole and integrated water-repellent membrane, Bruklin chestnut keeps moisture out. The lining as well as the sewn-in inner soles are made from wool from Wildling's cooperation partner Nordwolle, it keeps warm while regulating the climate. For extra warmth in the shoe, insoles such as Wooly or Felty can be added.
The upper material of Bruklin chestnut is made from a combination of hemp from VirgoCoop
(40%) and virgin wool from Nordwolle (60%). In addition to the climate-regulating properties of wool, the hemp fibers have dirt-repellent and tear-resistant properties - they are also particularly soft and comfortable to wear.
Incidentally, Bruklin is inspired by the Ehrenfeld district of Cologne - the Brooklyn of Cologne, as rumor has it.

From wool that nobody wanted
When Anna Yona heard about Nordwolle, it was clear: this was the meeting of two ideas that were heading in the same direction. Marco Scheel has built up a completely regional wool value chain in northern Germany – from shearing to the finished yarn. Wool that was once considered too rough is now used to make a warm, durable material – and marks the beginning of a long-lasting partnership. -
The man behind Nordwolle
Marco uses what others would throw away: The strong wool of robust sheep breeds like the Pomeranian Landschaf. These animals care for cultural landscapes through biosphere grazing, promote biodiversity – and provide a fibre with character. Once rejected as scratchy, today it is a statement against plastic and anonymous supply chains. -
Genuine and natural
Undyed, unbleached – just washed, combed and spun. Nordwolle retains its natural resilience, warmth and original feel. Processed in traditional companies, it stands for genuine regionality and honest functionality. -
How wool becomes a Wildling
The wool is spun, woven and processed in Portugal. This creates a natural material with functional properties. In collaboration with Nordwolle, it is turned into a Wildling – from the fibre to the finished shoe.
