Arc’teryx, renowned for its iconic jackets favored by celebrities such as Bella Hadid, Drake, and Frank Ocean, is making waves in 2024 with the announcement of their groundbreaking project: the launch of their inaugural in-house sneaker collection. This move marks a significant milestone for the brand, as they venture into footwear design and production from inception to completion.
Since 2015, Arc’teryx has been a player in the footwear market, with offerings like the Aerios and Norvan, which have gained popularity among hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. However, this new collection represents a departure from their previous collaborations, as Arc’teryx takes full control of the design, development, and manufacturing processes.
Forget boring old colors – Arc’teryx is bringing the heat with neon yellow and logos that pop. Who said outdoor gear has to be dull?
Let’s take a look at what they’ve got:
First up, we’ve got the Sylan, a tech-savvy mountain shoe built to zip through rugged terrain like a champ. Sporting a dual midsole and a sleek design, the Sylan is ready to take on whatever Mother Nature throws its way.
For all you mountain conquerors out there, check out the Vertex Alpine. These kicks are all about durability and breathability, keeping you comfy on those long treks. And with fancy tech like a Vibram Megagrip outsole, you’ll stay steady on even the trickiest terrain.
If you’re all about comfort and ease, say hello to the Kragg. These laid-back sneakers take cues from the chill vibes of mountaineers, giving you both style and function. Plus, with a collapsible heel and slip-on style, they’re just the ticket for spontaneous mountain trips or easygoing city walks.
Mark your calendars for MARCH 6, 2024. That’s the day when these kicks hit select stores. But hey, while you’re waiting, why not explore some of the awesome outdoor sneakers available right now? Just take a peek at the banner below and get a taste of what’s out there. Check more!
