Inspired by mountaineering expeditions, the Snow Peak x R_C4 Mid 'Tokyo Design Studio' boot, created by Lisa Yamai in partnership with New Balance in October 2019, combines functionality and style. Constructed with Cordura and Gore-Tex materials, this boot effectively shields against harsh weather conditions, ensuring warmth and dryness throughout the winter season. With the inclusion of Fidlock buckles, the ankle remains securely fastened, preventing slipping during challenging ascents. Additionally, the boot features reflective accents for enhanced sidewall visibility and a Vibram sole that offers excellent traction on rugged terrain.
