# Luxe Onyx Boots Sacai & Hender Scheme's Military-Style Boots Have a Price Tag of $1,395 USD By Riley von Niessen | Published 2016-08-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/militarystyle-boots References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2016/8/sacai-hender-scheme-boot-fw16) & [shop.havenshop](http://shop.havenshop.ca/products/x-hender-scheme-boots) These military-style boots come from a collaborative effort between 'sacai' and 'Hender Scheme,' [two Japanese brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hender-scheme-2) that both have a history in creating some of the finest artisan clothing, footwear and accessories. The style of the boots is relatively simple, however it makes a statement nonetheless. This is maintained by the [all-black colorway](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bw-army-lux) that makes it up, which is paired with a sleek construction that ensures its wearer is warm and comfortable in cold weather. Laces that go up the high-top military-style boots add more dimension to it as well, with the silver accents that hold them in place adding a slight contrast. Although the colorway never really strays from its modern and monochromatic aesthetic, the material differentiates throughout. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.3/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Luxury Military-style Boots:** Opportunity to create high-end versions of military-style boots targeted at luxury fashion consumers. - **Japanese Artisanal Collaboration:** Opportunity for Japanese brands to collaborate on creating handcrafted, high-quality fashion products. - **Monochromatic Colorways:** Opportunity to experiment with variations of monochromatic colorways in fashion product design. ### Who This Affects Most - **Luxury Fashion:** Opportunity to appeal to luxury fashion consumers with high-end military-style boots. - **Artisanal Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands that specialize in artisanal handcrafted products to collaborate and create unique fashion products. - **Footwear Fashion:** Opportunity to experiment with new designs and materials in the footwear fashion industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sleek Hybrid Boot Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yohji-yamamoto-2.md) - [Luxury Sneaker-Like Snow Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-lv-trainer-snow-boot.md) - [Weatherproof Sneaker-Like Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/danner-x-brandblack-boot.md) - [Japanese-Made All-Leather Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hender-scheme-2.md) - [Naturalistic Militant Hiking Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canada-goose-glacier-trail-high.md) - [Chunky Hybrid Boot Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/y3-kyasu-overboot.md) - [Stealthy All-Black Collaborative Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geo-forma-boot.md) - [Hybrid Brogue-Like Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/henry-wing-cap-chelsea-boot.md) - [Collaborative Dramatic Soled Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2x4-boot.md)
