Scottish retailer Hanon teamed up with the renowned Clarks to create the Traxter Ventile. The Traxter was reinterpreted from its original silhouette, updated to meet modern standards while making use of an innovative retro technology. Ventile, which was developed during World War II, is created by densely weaving cotton together; the cotton fibers swell to produce natural, though efficient waterproofing. The material is now applied throughout the entire upper of the Traxter, along with features such as a gasket sock liner, a sheepskin leather collar component, and an Ortholite® memory footbed. Part-mocassin, part-rain boot, this new collaboration is wholly clean. Look for the Hanon x Clarks Traxter Ventile to release on Hanon’s web shop on March 16.
