Stepping off the runway and onto the trail, Belstaff unveils its first-ever footwear collaboration, a partnership forged with renowned hiking brand, Merrell. This collection bridges the gap between city streets and mountain peaks, reflecting both Belstaff’s rich British heritage and Merrell’s dedication to outdoor exploration.
The debut boasts two distinct silhouettes. The Ontario Speed, a Merrell high-performer, sheds its traditionally utilitarian shell for a more polished look. Think rugged suede upper, interwoven with panels of ripstop nylon and whisper-soft leather. Underfoot, FloatEco foam provides lasting comfort, while a Vibram sole ensures superior traction. A subtle nod to Belstaff’s identity comes in the form of a logo discreetly printed on a rubber patch adorning the tongue.
The Hydro Moc, on the other hand, draws inspiration from the utilitarian pockets of Belstaff’s iconic Castmaster vest. A playful reimagining, the shoe features a detachable sock with a built-in pouch on the outer side, mimicking the vest’s functional design. A lace winds through strategically placed holes in the EVA upper, culminating in a Belstaff-branded pull tab for easy on and off.
This innovative footwear collection is now available for purchase on the Belstaff website.
