Japanese fashion label hobo works in collaboration with Danner once again to unveil a new iteration of the duo's TACHYON 6 footwear design. The boots were originally unveiled in March earlier this year and the new updates center around the militaristic silhouette in a more tactical colorway.
The shoes feature a light tan finish and some of the updates can be found at the base foundation of the show. The eight-inch height of the model is decreased to six inches in order to closely correlate to militaristic standards. The uppers are made from a blend of thick nylon-polyester at the mesh panels and cow suede as the foundation. It is also lined with DANNER DRY lining in order to provide protection and a waterproof barrier.
