Sejarah Mode
Reginald Murray Williams founded the company in 1932 in South Australia. He developed the one-piece leather boot to withstand harsh bush conditions. Over several decades, the brand transitioned from providing essential gear for stockmen to becoming a symbol of Australian national identity. Its role in fashion history is defined by the global adoption of its Chelsea boot design, which connects rural workwear with urban dress standards.
