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.

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.

This boot retails for $1,000 and is already taking pre-orders via Viberg’s site. With an expected production time of 10 weeks, the first orders of the design will begin to ship out on December 16. Although the look and feel of the boot are more than enough to entice footwear fans, the quality production and materials make it a worthwhile boot for the season.

It’s no surprise to find an endless supply of classic chunky hiking sneakers under ASICS’ lineup. The athletic company has long become known for its classic ‘90s-style techy sneakers that can easily handle most journeys.

Taking the form of a boot, the latest release is about adding military strength, durability, and design for a rugged and stable shoe. Although the design seems to step out of the norm for ASICS, the boot continues the same premium quality and craftsmanship you seek out of your performance footwear.
Meet ASICS’ new sneaker-boot hybrid

With their latest release, ASICS’ takes on a sneaker-boot hybrid that invokes some of their most rugged and bulky features yet. Taking on the previously released GEL-YETI TOKYO HI GTX, ASICS is redesigning its nonnative collaboration for a sleeker and darker look. Covered in a black suede upper with GORE-TEX lining, the sneaker boot has both durability and chicness that’s hard to find on the trails. Matte black hardware and contrast stitching allows the design to exude a subtle sleekness emphasizing the premium craftsmanship. While the hybrid design looks and feels luxurious, it remains a practical choice with a quick lace system that gives users easy access. A rugged outsole helps maintain traction and balance, no matter what terrain you’re exploring. This new hue is set to be released via ASICS’ website on February 10 and will retail around $219. While the initial release of this silhouette came as a shock to all, the new colorway evokes the feel of a different type of sneaker boot. While not changing much of the design or features, this new GEL-YETI TOKYO HI GTX is a must-have for all hiking fans.
