HAVEN and Clarks rework the iconic Wallabee with technical fabrics

HAVEN and Clarks rework the iconic Wallabee with technical fabrics

After their most recent 6 inch boot collaboration with Timberland, HAVEN continues its run of all-weather collaborations as it reveals its latest work with iconic English footwear brand Clarks for an updated Wallabee Boot.

The modern, military-inspired rework of the Wallabee Boot is most evident by the revised upper, crafted from two contrasting materials: durable ballistic nylon for the side panels and soft suede on the toe box, heel, and collar. Now lined with GORE-TEX®, the upper provides full waterproof protection and breathable comfort. Additionally, fine details such as the gusseted tongue prevent dirt, water, and other elements from seeping through the lace eyelets or the space between the tongue and the upper part of the boot. For furhter comfort and support, the outsoles are fitted with Vibram® Moreflex.

See the full editorial at HAVEN and stay tuned for its release on April 27.
