While HOKA knows how to craft a performance shoe for all your physical activity needs, their recent collaborations have taken them to a new stylish level. This time around the athletic company is working with the Parisian-based Satisfy to once again rework the Mafate Speed 4 Lite in two new colorways. At the end of 2023, the two brands first redesigned this sneaker in “Rubber” and “Sulfur” colors and now they’ve taken to it once again to show off new tones. Sticking to the minimalist tones, these new colorways are perfect for those looking for sneakers that fit any style or wardrobe. While trail sneakers are plenty, these new redesigns are a modern refresh on a quality pair.

HOKA and Satisfy have introduced another round of minimalist trail sneakers that dazzle against the dirt using brown, black, and off-white tones throughout the two new colorways. The ‘Bone’ color uses an off-cream technical upper with transparent and lightweight TPU mesh for a minimalist and sleek look. Added features like the protective ripstop nylon, a soft microfiber collar, and an extra-thin lace construction offer a premium touch to the sneaker for any active person. The “Coffee” hue utilizes the same construction and craft but with dark brown and black tones throughout. Both new sneakers come with Vibram Megagrip with Litebase Construction and a new resilient, lightweight foam. An airy sneaker with a high-quality finish, there’s no doubt that the collaboration between HOKA and Satisfy continues to deliver hits. These new sneakers retail for $210 each and are now available via HOKA and Satisfy. Bound to sell out quickly, fans of the minimalist look should hurry to grab their own.

How Our Legacy Work Shop and ROA created the most elegant hiking boot around

Our Legacy Work Shop, ROA create new hiking boot

When choosing hiking boots, most will solely focus on features that help support the foot inside and can successfully handle rugged terrain. For Our Legacy Work Shop and Italian-based ROA, creating their third collaborative design meant taking the hiking boot standard a step further. Made with recycled materials and an extensive craftsmanship process, the newest collaboration is nothing short of quality and style. Marking their third partnership, these two brands have included the best of their distinct styles and processes for the ultimate boot. While the craftsmanship takes this design to the next level, the materials and details truly make this a must-have for hikers. With plenty of character and sturdiness, the hiking boot delivers not only style but plenty of substance.
Work Shop Andres Boot

Using Swedish Vacchetta leather from residual tannery offcuts, these hiking boots are constructed and made in Italy, where they undergo further processes to get the design’s sleek look. With a vegetable tanning process, the uppers are given their unique coloring and character that makes every pair one-of-a-kind. Apart from leather, these boots utilize matte and hairy suede to give them even more texture and dimension. Vibram Megagrip soles and padded tongue give the hiking boot a further sense of volume and ruggedness. Smaller details like rope laces, heel tabs, and metal eyelets bring the design together. Ideal for rough terrain and urban environments, these are your typical hiking boots. The Andres Boot is available for purchase via Our Legacy’s web store and retail for 590 EUR in either black or brown hues.
