February. Baltic wind, diagonal rain and sporadic rays of cold sunlight. Standard. The remedy? A size? selected hybrid winter boot refresh. Inspiration below.
Nike Goadome
The Nike Goadome – unofficially dubbed in some streetwear circles as the ‘Air Max Timberland’ – was created by ACG designer Carl Blakeslee, who designed the original sketches while he was away on business in Paris. Inspired by urban boots that were popular back in the ‘90s, Nike’s Goadome riffed off the ACG Lavadome namesake and quickly became an overnight grail for those in the know.
Rockport Umbwe Hiker
Massachusetts natives, Rockport, are a heritage label with coastal DNA who put comfort first without compromising on style. The first of its kind to debut reflective 3M piping that garnered the model cult-status, Rockport’s Umbwe Hiker is a full-grain leather build with a waterproof membrane, memory foam cushioning and geological-inspired Vibram outsoles.
Nike Baltoro
Originally an ACG hiking boot from the 1990s, Nike’s Baltoro is back from the archives after a reintroduction with Stüssy back in October, 2025. An ode to retro colour blocks synonymous with the Beaverton label’s outdoor subdivision, Nike’s contemporary rendition does the OG blueprint firm justice. This one’ll see you through the colder months with ease and is able to tackle any UK-based terrain you throw at it. Easy yes.
Timberland Heritage GORE-TEX Boot
Designed for the great outdoors, Timberland’s Heritage GORE-TEX Boot walks the line between formal dresswear and rugged utilitarian capability that’s just as much at home on nights out paired with a smart pant as it is with techy layers when you’re out in the wilderness.
The North Face Glenclyffe Urban Low
Inspired by the outdoor label’s Summit Series – a flagship mountaineering-focused, athlete-tested and expedition-proven product line – The North Face’s Glenclyffe Urban Low is a utilitarian water-resistant suede and synthetic leather masterstroke that’s fit for city exploration and beyond.
