Nostalgia is on trend, at least according to Noah and PUMA. Using the 80s and 90s as partial inspiration, the two brands have come together to give fans the perfect outdoor boot to use in the city. With two hiking boots in this first release for the Fall/Winter 2024 collection, this collaboration brings out all the sturdiness and durability you would find on the trails. In this first drop out of two, the brands have given their fans the perfect balance of prep-inspired style with a touch of nature. Even though these hiking boots are made for exploring the urban jungle, they still come with all of the features you would expect if you were trekking in nature. With a high-top and low-top version, wearers can choose the pair that best suits their style.

True to the hiking boot, Puma and Noah’s Hi-Top Hiking Boot is rugged and sturdy. Crafted in a tan, brown, and pink colorway combination, this boot embraces the outdoors. With a nylon base with suede overlays and heel embossed brand patch, the mix and matching of materials gives fans enough contrast for style. A rubber outsole keeps wearers stable, no matter the surface. Inside, the GORE-TEX lining provides comfort and protection for the foot. In a pop of color, the pink laces add an interesting pop that brings it all together.

In their low-top option, Noah and Puma keep the waterproof GORE-TEX lining inside but switch up its appearance to a cream, pink, and blue colorway. With a similar mix of materials as the high-top version, the sleek cream base offers a clean and minimalist touch to your look. With similar pink/red laces, the pop of color adds a strong personality to your footwear. Both are currently available via Noah’s site and retailers. The Hi-Top Boot will have a retail price of $190, while the Low-Top Boot retails for $170. Puma and Noah’s second drop is expected to include a Classic Suede Mid and is set to be released in November.

Wolverine’s newest heritage boot is one to remember (especially if you love bourbon)

Wolverine's newest bourbon-inspired boot

Although mixing bourbon and footwear seems farfetched, two brands know how to do it. Wolverine and Old Rip Van Winkle are no strangers in combining their respective branding to create one-of-a-kind pieces that become instant classics. In their fourth collaboration together, Wolverine joined forces with the distillery to create a new work boot that’s as rich and decadent as their bourbon. Although design-wise, the boot is a refresh of the Wolverine 1000 mile collection, its distinct color and detailed accents are a breath of newness to a traditional boot. Combining the quality of Wolverine with the distinct bourbon color of Old Rip Van Winkle Bourbon, this boot is a tasty addition to your closet.

One of the most significant nods to Old Rip Van Winkle’s famed bourbon comes in this new collaboration’s colorway. As Wolverine points out, the boot’s hue is “inspired by the rich caramel and wood notes of Old Rip Van Winkle 10 Year…,” making the color as rare and unique as its muse. What makes this tone even more unique is the patina the leather will develop over time and use, making each pair unique to its owner and their journey. Making this collaboration even more personal is the unique identification of each boot marked on its woven label. As a limited edition item, each pair will come with its number, giving you the sense of a custom product. On the bottom, the new boot comes with Wolverine’s 1000 mile classic wedge sole and identifiable comfort.

For Viberg, the mission is to create the ultimate rugged boot that retains a certain level of sophistication. In another collaboration with writer David Coggins, the Canadian company has developed a balanced mix that brings sturdiness with style. The Outsider II boot continues this partnership that already brought us one practical shoe. However, the Outsider II differs from its predecessor as it dives deeper into giving users a chic boot that can withstand any situation. Using a unique Goodyear welt construction, this boot represents sturdiness you can’t find in most footwear options.
Get to know the Outsider II boot

Produced in a tobacco full-grain calfskin suede, this boot has all the luxury feel on the outside. This suede material comes from Italy’s Conceria Opera tannery, known for its texture and ability to withstand extreme environmental conditions. Crafted on the 2040 Chelsea Last, it contains a flat toe, pull tab, and sock liners. With its Goodyear Welt Construction, the foot sits on top of the insole and welt that connects the entire shoe. This method allows users to mold and form the leather as they wish. On the bottom, the rugged sole gives all the stability and security to take the next step in your journey.
