Boot Camp
First act of Full Metal Jacket shiny or Taxi Driver worn out, full top boots are a gimmie
for a shade of east-end rudie/skinhead flavor. With nods to an Anglo working class
fashion era, Nom de Guerre has recently eschewed that increasingly tiresome athletic
shoe trend in favor of more mature and photoshoot worthy footwear, most recently in
collaboration with century old Northampton manufacturers Tricker’s. As a traditionfocused
company, Tricker’s has stayed under the radar outside their core constituency;
but in this collaboration, they’ll have their craftsmanship imported to the States. The
final product, a wing-tipped version of the trad Tricker’s combat boot, is also a new
offering by the brand. The question still remains though: Private Pyle or Travis Bickle?
