Le Chameau is a prestigious French heritage brand renowned for crafting premium rubber boots and country footwear that seamlessly blend tradition, craftsmanship, and innovation. Founded in 1927 by Claude Chamot, a master bootmaker in Normandy, Le Chameau was born out of a desire to create comfortable, durable boots for farmers, hunters, and fishermen--those who depend on their footwear in rugged, demanding conditions.


Over the decades, Le Chameau has evolved into a symbol of luxury outdoor living, offering a range of products that combine technical excellence with refined aesthetics. From the iconic Chasseur leather-lined boot to contemporary designs for country weekenders, Le Chameau continues to represent the pinnacle of comfort, function, and elegance in outdoor footwear.
