The style is rugged and sturdy, offering the wearer ease of movement in a fashionable utilitarian style that’s versatile. Maya gravitates toward ankle-length silhouettes cast in neutral tones. Beyond black, the popular silhouette can be found in a range of colors and prints from both high and low-end brands including Dr. Martens, Timberland and Hunter.
