This collaboration grew out of a shared respect for American craftsmanship and tradition. White's has built its reputation on traditional bootmaking methods that have stood the test of time, while Kato has redefined heritage clothing with a focus on comfort and modern wearability.
Together, we created a pair of boots that honor tradition without feeling bound by it. Built in the USA with the same rugged durability WHITE'S is known for, and refined with Kato's dedication to comfort, these boots are designed to be both functional and versatile. The result is a look that gets compliments in the city and dependability that gets respect on the job site. Every detail reflects a balance of rugged tradition and modern style. Built in the USA, this KATO x WHITE'S collaboration is not just built to last, but built to live in.

Chelsea
The C350 Chelsea guides the Kato × White’s Boots collaboration in a more streamlined direction, while keeping the same build standard at its core. Part of the Triple Black Series, it follows the same all black aesthetic as the rest of the collection—rugged, rebellious, and built for comfort.
WHITE’S
White’s Boots, founded in 1853, White’s Boots has earned its reputation through uncompromising construction and generational knowledge. Their signature handsewn stitchdown method involves more than 25 individual steps, creating a durable, supportive platform trusted by loggers, firefighters, and craftsmen throughout the Pacific Northwest.
The leather is cut from the strongest sections of the hide. The stitchdown is sewn entirely by hand. Every component is chosen with longevity in mind. This is slower production by design — not volume-driven, but craft-driven. The result is a boot that doesn’t just last. It evolves.
That legacy continues today in Spokane, Washington, where each pair is built to withstand real wear and the passing of time.
