Once again Boston boutique Concepts gets together with Canada Goose, this time to collaborate on the Alberta Vest for Fall/Winter 2010.

“Being that Concepts is located in New England, we value and appreciate the dedication to the design of product built to keep us warm regardless of temperature and elements we are forced to endure during our winter months.

Modifying the Alberta Vest design, we created something that doesn’t compromise the heritage and dedication to quality outerwear Canada Goose is known for.

Using an Arctic-Tech waterproof shell, 625 fill power white duck down for the body & removable hood, fleece lined pockets with soft leather under pocket flaps and side seam zippers – our interpretation of this CG classic vest is now ready for use on the streets of Harvard Square.”

The vest comes in two colorways as part of the collaboration and will be released November 19th at Concepts. Also check out the video here below produced by Concepts.

Once again Concepts from Boston has hooked up with Clarks, this time presenting two colorways of the Weaver Boot for Fall 2010.

“Since 1825, the Clarks name has been synonymous with heritage and quality. Our partnership with the brand extends beyond just selling shoes and with that we are proud to present our newest collaborative effort, the CNCPTS Weaver boot. The Weaver is one of many iconic styles in the Clarks’ archive and is the cousin to the ever popular Wallabee. Our collaboration will mark the first time the boot version of the Weaver will be available in the States in over a decade.

Our CNCPTS version styles the boot in a premium unlined waxed Italian suede on the moccasin construction and is offered in 2 colors, Piombu Grey and Torba Brown, and includes a leather lined foot bed with embossed branding. You will also find the Concepts “Double C” logo featured on the tongue and our abbreviated branding CNCPTS located on the lower outside heel.

Quality is our objective and we feel like we succeeded. “

After their recent project with New Balance, Boston boutique Concepts now got together with Sorel to make sure that your feet stay warm and dry this winter.

Originally founded by William H. Kaufman Inc. in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada, Sorel™ has long been associated with the development and distribution of durable, comfortable, cold-weather footwear since 1908. In the early 1960s, Sorel™ was the first to combine leather uppers, rubber bottoms and removable felt liners to make the warmest and driest winter boots available anywhere in the world.

Concepts worked with Sorel on 2 classic models, the men’s Caribou and the women’s Joan of Arctic, using premium leathers, suede’s and waxed cotton on the uppers. Each boot comes with an alternate fleece lining, is water proof and rated for -30 fahrenheit. The boots are now available at Concepts Boston.

Concepts x New Balance “Freedom Trail” Collection | 1500 and 875 from HighSnobiety on Vimeo.

The New Balance x Concepts Freedom Trail Collection, which consists of the 1500 and 875, will be released on Black Friday at Concepts Boston. We sat down with Frank The Butcher, Brand and Markting Manager of Concepts, to talk about the project. Enjoy!

Boston-based New Balance announces the next collection from the brand’s Partnership Program –The Concepts Collection- designed and developed in tandem with venerable sneaker shop, Concepts, in Cambridge, MA.

Featuring two silhouettes from New Balance’s USA team, The Concepts Collection re-introduces the classic 1500 sneaker and launches the first-ever 875 boot.

Inspired by one of Boston’s most celebrated landmarks, The Freedom Trail, the collection pays homage to the shared importance of historic Boston as both New Balance and Concepts share headquarters in this New England city.

With a nod to the Freedom Trail’s red footpath and the brown brick of Boston’s antiquated North End neighborhood, the shoes came to life in premium brown leather and red accents.

The 1500 is a heritage New Balance style originally built domestically back in 1989. The 1500 was originally built as a fully-loaded technical running shoe. Specific detail executed solely for Concepts include: full grain leather upper, pigskin leather lining (more luxurious and breathable that a comparable synthetic product), and embossed tongue tag.

The 875 is a brand new style launched to the public for the first time via the Concepts Collection. The boot was designed for comfort and durability. The sole unit includes New Balance Rollbar™ technology for maximum support and stability. Additionally, NB designers used a PU Wedge in the heel (similar to the wedge that offers superior support in the NB 993) and compression molded EVA in the forefoot. The 875 features a full grain leather upper, pigskin leather lining, and embossed tongue tag.

Concepts will be releasing the Freedom Trail Collection on Black Friday, November 27th. Other premium accounts around the globe will also be getting the pack later on.
