Translated from Ukrainian
High-tops shield the ankle from wind and slush, made for the in-between season. For colder days there are fur-lined versions and versions with Winterfrost 500 insulation, all handmade at our family-owned Kharkiv factory since 1997.
CatalogGenuine leather and a chunky deep-lug sole keep you steady on wet and icy ground. For foul weather, choose Winterfrost 500 insulation or a fur lining.
CatalogLow and high-top sneakers for every day: smooth leather, nubuck, suede, and fur-lined pairs for chilly days. This season’s picks come first.
CatalogAutumn-to-winter boots on a chunky sole with thick natural fur inside. Uppers in nubuck, and in some styles, pony hair.
CatalogSoft sheepskin boots for frosty days: double-face sheepskin (leather and wool in one piece, no separate lining) or nubuck with natural fur inside. A light sole, and MARY slip-ons go on without laces.
CatalogBabylon has been making footwear at its family-owned factory in Kharkiv, Ukraine, since 1997. We work with genuine leather, nubuck, suede and fur, build our own last for every model and check quality at every stage. Every pair is handmade, so it keeps its shape and lasts for many seasons.
Good to know
Sheepskin boots are no longer just cosy shoes for home: people wear them with jeans, dresses and tailored coats. Here are seven women's outfits built on real Babylon pairs, and why each one works.
ReadTwo pairs of sheepskin boots can look alike in photos and still differ in the hide, the fleece, the sole and what happens when they need repair. Here is a checklist you can run on any product page, and an honest comparison of the kinds of makers selling them.
ReadWet winter shoes dry in a day or two if you stuff them with paper and keep them away from the radiator. Here is why heat harms leather, how to dry nubuck, suede and sheepskin, and what Babylon’s product pages advise.
ReadA conversion chart gets you to the right neighbourhood; your foot length in centimetres gets you to the right door. Here are the women's and men's EU–UK–US charts, why they are only a guide, and how to check a size against the chart of the exact model.
ReadIn October, summer sneakers, sandals and loafers go into storage and winter boots come back out. Here is how to prepare a pair for a few months in a box so it comes out in spring looking the way it did in autumn.
ReadShearling and sheepskin are often used as if they were the same thing, but on a product page they can describe very different boots. Here is what each word means, what really keeps a pair warm and how to read the composition before you buy.
ReadMen's sheepskin boots are practical warm footwear for a city winter, not a women's trend. Here is how they differ, how to pick the material and height, and how to style them, using Babylon models as examples.
ReadSheepskin boots are chosen by foot length and the size chart of the specific model, not by your sneaker size. Here is why the fleece inside changes the fit, how much toe room to leave and what to do if you fall between two sizes.
