London-based designer Christopher Raeburn is a pioneer in sustainable fashion and cool streetwear, reworking surplus fabrics to create distinctive and utilitarian pieces. For his first collaboration with Palladium Boots, he casts his remade, reduced and recycled ethos within our military-inspired heritage and footwear knowledge to design boots that blend fashion and function. In this women’s style, recycled rubber and fused mesh are melded together in a futuristic boot that is breathable and comfortable. A wide velcro panel folds over the zippered front to secure the top of the shoe for a snug fit. The coral strip in the back that doubles as a pull tab adds a stylish pop of color. The women’s shoes provide a streamlined foundation for easy spring looks, whether they’re skinny jeans, wide-legged pants, cutoff shorts, printed minidresses or athletic wear. In classic shades of black, light grey and dark olive, it’s the perfect staple for a conscientious and adventurous woman who cares about the environmental footprint she leaves on the world.
