Made the long way

Selling boots since the sixties. Making them since 1976. Every pair begins with leather from Brazil, is finished by hand, and is priced to respect both the work and the person wearing it.

Our Story

Six decades, three generations, one promise: boots made honestly, for people who work in them.

The 1960s

Door to door

Divino Oliveira began selling shoes door to door through the countryside of Minas Gerais, Brazil. In the small city of Araguari he became known as the finest salesman around — one handshake, one pair at a time.

1976

Calçados Triângulo

With everything the road had taught him, Divino opened his first factory and gave it a name: Calçados Triângulo. The triangle has been with us ever since.

The 1980s

Boots for those who work the land

Triângulo outgrew its region and reached all of Brazil — above all the Northeast, where farmers and cattle ranchers came to depend on our boots day after day, season after season.

The 2000s

Our own leather

We began tanning our own hides — earning recognition for our environmental practices and taking full control of the material at the heart of every pair.

2018

Looking north

After four decades in Brazil, the family set out to cross borders. The first designs made for the American market began to take shape.

2020

A loss, and a promise kept

The pandemic forced us to step back. During it, we lost Mr. Divino. His legacy never wavered — his son picked it up and carried it forward.

Today

TIERCE

Years of searching for the right materials, and a partnership with designer Vinicius Dapper, gave us the TIERCE Chelsea boot — six decades of a family's craft, honoured in a single pair.

Every pair we make carries his name.
