Nike Air Force 1 GTX Vibram
When designer Bruce Kilgore first sketched the AF1 in 1982, he borrowed from Nike's Approach hiking boot—lowering the heel for better movement and creating a basketball icon that's quietly rooted in trail performance. Four decades later, that connection comes full circle. The AF1 GTX Vibram swaps courtside polish for alpine grit, pairing a waterproof GORE-TEX leather upper with a rugged Vibram outsole engineered to grip slick streets like a rock face. It's the AF1 reimagined for rain, sleet, and snow—because not every journey happens indoors.

SOREL Caribou Horizon GTX Boot
The original Caribou boot carried explorers across arctic landscapes to the top of the world and later became the world's first snowboarding boot, cementing its place as a cold-weather legend. The new Caribou Horizon GTX channels that same grit with refined leather, modern insulation, and premium Gore-Tex protection. Whether cutting through slush-slicked city streets or climbing toward the altitude of après escapes, the Caribou Horizon GTX keeps you moving in life's coldest moments. The horizon is calling—step boldly into adventure and the unknown.
