Good Afternoon Sabah People,

Travel with us through Florida's Everglades, an extraordinary natural habitat of flooded grasslands 'just' west of Downtown Miami (and our pop up at the Standard Miami Beach!).

As recommended by our 2024 Guide to Miami, we were up early and cruising through the sawgrass by airboat.

We saw gators, birds, a beautiful sunset, and awe-inspiring landscapes.

And we did it all in our new Sabahs & Babas that we're releasing today: our Rough Out Tabac Sabah & Sawgrass Baba.

Read on for more!

Sincerely,

The Sabah Dealer

Rough Out Tabac Sabahs.

Rough Out is a term from Western bootmaking, used to describe boots made with the rough side of the leather turned out -- resulting in a highly napped (aka extra furry) suede upper, that's elegant & durable.

Today, we introduce a limited run of Sabahs using this very concept -- a rough out leather in a tobacco-hue, and you might even call it a tobacco texture too. They're incredible unique to say the least. Enjoy!

Sawgrass Babas.

Inspired by sawgrass, the iconic, long-leafed sedges found throughout Florida's Everglades (and seen in most of the photos is this campaign), these Babas are handmade in El Paso, Texas using an Italian hair-on cow leather in a soft shade of green. A limited production of just 100 pairs in total.

A Trip to the Everglades.

We left early for the Everglades -- meeting up with Fabian & Garrett of Buffalo Tiger Airboat Tours, a local tour provider owned & operated by members of the Miccosukee People, who have inhabited the Everglades for a very long time.

Our first stop was Tear Island. Fabian made us a fire and educated us on the history of the island, a place where Miccosukee People lived & grew food for many years. We then took a walk witnessing birds, gators and amazing nature.

From the island, we cruised deeper into the Everglades by airboat. The views were amazing; the nature & landscapes unlike anything we'd ever witnessed. We saw so many alligators, egrets & great blue herons. Wow!

To finish our day, we took a walk along Shark Valley Trail, a 15-mile loop that brings you through the Everglades with opportunities for camping and great views. The walk ended with a majestic sunset.

If you're headed to Florida in the coming months, we highly recommend taking a break from the beach and driving West from our pop up at the Standard Spa to experience the Everglades... a habitat truly like no other! And don't forget to reach out to Fabian & Garrett to book an Airboat tour - you won't be disappointed.
