120 Year Capsule

Available now. And again in 120 years.

The Engineer. The Pecos. The Logger. The boots that inspired this capsule were purpose-built from the beginning to be relevant to the people that wore them. Their quality and design makes them relevant today, and they’ll be just as relevant in the future.

That’s why, 120 years after our founding, we’re launching this capsule, then burying it to be released again in another 120 years.
