Japan’s atmos is linking up with Japanese rapper AK-69 for a customized pair of Timberland Timberland 6″ Boots. AK-69 last collaborated with atmos on a pair of Ewing Athletics sneakers in 2016; this time, Timberland’s classic shoe is draped in black leather and boasts exclusive detailing.
Limited to only 100 pairs, the footwear commemorates AK-69′s nearly year-old album, DAWN. The “DAWN in BUDOKAN” features a custom hangtag from atmos, a tonal black leather upper and rubber lug sole, and one of two Japanese Kanji characters embroidered on the rear tab of each boot: “夜” and “明” which together translate to “dawn.”
Look for the drop on atmos’ webstore on October 20 for ￥30,000 JPY (approximately $265 USD). This month has seen a large selection of atmos collaborations, with a set of Columbia jackets announced for Fall/Winter 2017, and a bevy of releases unveiled for the recent New York Comic Con.
Footwear label FEIT has crafted a new boot for Fall/Winter 2017 — the Military Hiker. Featuring FEIT’s trademark high-quality leather and detailing, the artisanal shoes boast a variety of luxurious details.
Fabricated in black vegetable-tanned leather, FEIT’s Military Hiker boot is a taller version of its Hiker boot model, with combat boot inspiration. The Military Hiker offers several design upgrades, like a heel tab, metal eyelets, and suede panelling. A gusseted tongue meant to resist water and amplify comfort, a chunky Vibram GumLite outsole, and FEIT’s modified Goodyear construction round out the heavy-duty shoe.
The Military Hiker is now available on FEIT’s webstore for $800 USD.
Engineered Garments and Dr. Martens have released a remixed take on the latter’s classic Monkey Boot. Offering a timeless silhouette with a characteristic twist, this collaborative take on the archive boot is swathed in oxblood suede and deep burgundy smooth leather for a nod to EG’s signature mismatched aesthetic.
The traditional silhouette gets edited to a slightly lower 6-inch chukka height with a 6-eye lace closure, while the upper’s distinctive panel stitching, smooth cowhide lining, heat-sealed treatment and air-cushioned sole unit with yellow Z welt-stitching stay true to Dr. Martens’ reputable quality and design.
The Engineered Garments x Dr. Martens Mis-matched Monkey Boots will be available at select Engineered Garments stockists for a retail price of ¥54,000 JPY (approximately $480 USD) in the near future.
Let us know if these are a Fall/Winter 2017 cop and for more boot options, check out the SOPHNET. x Danner combat zip boot.
Italian outerwear brand Moncler released an updated take on the classic hiking boot just in time for the change of seasons. Dubbed the Peak Mountain Boot, this heavy-duty pair stands just as confidently at the ski lodge as it does slushing through urban terrain.
The made-in-Italy Peak Mountain Boot comes in a sand-colored, full grain leather suede for a vintage look and feel, while resting atop a Vibram sole with Moncler’s signature colors at the midesole’s heel. Additional details include a Goodyear welt, striped laces, metal d-rings, and a padded ankle collar. Grab a pair now for $670 USD at END. Clothing.
