The highly anticipated F/CE. x Converse collaboration updates the QAK CP GORE-TEX Hi model to provide a high-performing, neutral-toned technical boot that is unlike any other on the market.
Designed with all-terrain hiking in mind, this durable boot is sure to get customers out on the trails. It comes equipped with waterproof GORE-TEX fabrics, damage-protecting toes, a detachable belt, anti-slip soles, and robust ankle support. In addition, the boots were built for comfort, which is why they contain a TPU shank in the midsole.
While there is no doubt that these boots are highly functional, they are also undeniably stylish. Their all-grey design and rugged exterior – reminiscent of military boots – fit in with the high-tech looks currently dominating men's streetwear.
