The Lennon Hi boot was created as part of a collaborative effort between Kickers and independent clothing brand Lucy and Yak, and it's a vegan-friendly style made with sustainable materials and carefully considered processes. The boot is available in Rubia Pink and Bold Black colorways and it is constructed from organic canvas and a recycled material lining.
The high-cut style boasts a classic chunky sole, Moccasin-style construction and details like "Lucy" printed on one back of the boot and "Yak" on the other. When it comes to making these boots, the brands favored the use of plant-based dyes and a non-thermal dyeing process to reduces both water and energy consumption. Kickers calls these boots the brand's "most sustainable footwear product offering to date."
