Italian footwear brand Diemme has teamed up with leading outerwear brand Rains in a new rainboot collaboration. The brands have collaborated to reimagine Diemme's classic 'Duck Boot.' Together the brands have created a collection of lace-up waterproof boots - available in ankle-high and below-the-knee lengths.
The collection mixes Diemme's smooth leather boot interior with Rains' signature exterior waterproof PU fabric - creating the ultimate waterproof boot. In addition, the boots will feature Diemme's durable sole and come in two colors, 'Black Reflective' and 'White Reflective.'
The collaboration comes out in August 2021 and will be available for purchase on the Rains website. Additionally, rains ship to a selection of countries worldwide and is available at selected retailers.
