What's In A Name
The Whalen is named for our good friend, Matthew Whalen. Matthew, or "Matty" to some of us, is an accomplished filmaker and photographer, working on multiple national campaigns that you yourself have undoubtedly seen. As accomplished of an artist as Matty is, his true talent lies in his unwaivering and devoted friendship. Kind and humble, sincere and funny, and adventurous like no other, we immediately thought of Matty when we designed this boot.

The best....
This is my third pair of Helms; the quality and build of all the shoes is outstanding. The sole of this one is my favorite so far; it's like walking on air. My other two pairs had a break-in period; this one fit like a glove out of the box. Thanks to Helm for another outstanding pair of shoes.
