Nike is renowned for its lifestyle sneaker and running shoe collections, however, they’re also taking a dip into the hiking boot sector. In their latest release, Nike unveiled their new hiking boot silhouette, which they’re already doubling down. Before the drop, the shoe brand teased an upcoming new colorway. While there’s still some time to wait for the second color combination, the first drop has plenty to talk about. As a neutral hue, Nike’s hiking boot is anything but a regular shoe. Inspired by previous outdoor shoes, this latest edition has everything ready for both nature and city living.

Available in a rich Baroque Brown colorway, the boot is ready for anything with a waterproof leather upper. The shoe also comes with a foam midsole and rubber outsole that provides plenty of stability and comfort to the user. The Cygnal boot’s rubber outsole is rugged enough to withstand any terrain, even in the city. Thick padding on the tongue and collar finish the look and give the boot a tough exterior. The boot also comes with double laces, giving wearers the ability to choose the laces that best match their style.

Nike’s Cygnal hiking boots are available for $180 via Nike’s site and retailers. The second colorway, ‘Desert One’ is set to release soon. The upcoming beige hue has already made an impact overseas, meaning it shouldn’t be long until it’s available globally. While there’s no doubt that Cygnal will improve over time, this first drop is a good sign that Nike’s hiking boot journey will be successful.

When it comes to All-American footwear brands, Sperry ranks among the most notable around. Now that the brand is approaching its 90th anniversary, which includes historic moments, it’s time for Sperry to celebrate by looking into the future. With a closer look at the Japanese footwear market, Sperry has unveiled its newest sneaker that’s set to be a Japan exclusive. Taking on the traditional CVO design, the Sperry sneaker has undergone minimal changes to its overall shape to better appeal to the market. As Sperry continues to expand its global reach, it’s now farfetched to imagine more exclusives tailored to specific markets. While the design isn’t planned to land stateside (as of now), this exclusive launch serves as a preview of the next 90 years Sperry has planned.
