Eastpak and Clarks Blend Traditions: Introducing the Ultimate Footwear Fusion
When two stalwarts in the fashion industry, Eastpak and Clarks, collaborate, the result is nothing short of spectacular. Marrying the signature designs of a leading backpack brand with the craftsmanship of a British footwear legend, the Clarks X Eastpak Torhill Boot emerges. This fusion is the embodiment of Clarks’ longstanding commitment to comfort since 1825 and Eastpak’s functional designs that have been setting trends since 1952.
Commenting on this collaboration, Tara McRae, Clarks’ Global Chief Marketing Officer, shared, “At Clarks, our core mission revolves around ensuring comfort in every step. Partnering with Eastpak seemed like a natural fit, given our overlapping values. Their passion for enabling individuals to express themselves aligns perfectly with our philosophy. It’s truly rewarding to work alongside a brand that consistently pushes boundaries while championing inclusivity.”
Drawing from Clarks’ iconic designs, the Wallabee, and the nostalgic 90s’ Big Gripper, the Clarks X Eastpak Torhill Boot is set to be a trendsetter. Made with Eastpak’s signature weatherproof canvas and leveraging Strobel construction, the boot promises enhanced flexibility and durability.
Prioritizing comfort, the design integrates a molded, removable leather contour cushion footbed and is finished with a lightweight thermoplastic rubber outsole. With Eastpak’s renowned zipper, carry tag, and woven label effortlessly blending with Clarks’ distinct profile, this boot epitomizes the expertise of both brands, resulting in footwear that stands up to the elements with style.
Fashion aficionados can look forward to the Clarks X Eastpak collection hitting select stores on 24 August 2023.
