Japanese brand Ubiq got together with store Cactus to work on a collaboration of the Carphill hiking boots. The outcome is interesting. The back heel and the tongue of the boots feature patterned wool panels. The boots come in brown and blue and will be released on 14th of April at Flauge.
This release is a bit on the limit in terms of timing. In April people get ready for the summer. But the boots are nice!

As the first shoe of the new year Ubiq presents a winter boot of the classic kind. The Carphill is inspired by a classic hiking boot and is sort of a premium version of that. It comes in brown leather, and black and beige suede. The simple aesthetic looks really nice and if you want a quality winter boot that also performs when it gets a little more rough, then this is the way to go!
Chapterworld has them available now. After the jump pictures of the other two colorways.

Nike and Sophnet continue to not only work together on the F.C.R.B. line, but also continuously bring out innovative footwear. This time Sophnet worked with Nike ACG.
