Helm Boots is a brand of boots in the U.S. The company was founded in 2009 by Joshua Bingaman,[1] an Oklahoma native.[2] The company's boots were manufactured in Turkey before production was relocated to Maine.[3] The boots are designed in Austin and then manufactured in Maine using leather materials from American companies like Horween Leather Company and S. B. Foot Tanning Company.[2]

Boot styles

Some of the Helm Boots styles include:[2] Sam: a dress boot with a waxed-canvas panel Muller: a simply designed boot with a cap toe and infused rubber dot tread on the leather sole Philips Cooper: a desert boot Dash: this combines a leather with a monochromatic suede panel and a white boat shoe sole.

Other businesses

Bingaman had opened two coffee shops and a coffee roastery in the Austin, Texas area. He studied how Turkish footwear was made on a trip to visit his aunt.[3]
