A-COLD-WALL and ROA work in collaboration on a new collection together that highlights hiking purposes for the season. As the temperatures drop, the duo prepares for the season with suitable designs including hiking boots that deliver performance and aesthetics.
The signature boot styles include the Andreas and the Minaar, which are the same ones chosen for the previous collaboration between the two. It has a low-cut design and sits on top of a Vibram sole unit. The shoes have a heavy graphic detail and industrial tonal palettes -- this features grey, black, white, and purple to have a sleek and statement look. Both pairs of boots are set to join the Fall/Winter 2022 season and are now available to shop online.
