    • Footwear: Barbour x Rockport – Breaktrail Crap Toe (Day & Night Collection)

    I love the way this boot turned out, Rockport and Barbour have teamed up to deliver this Breaktrail crap toe boot. This boot is part of the Day & Night Collection. There are several other styles but this one was my favorite.

    This season, Rockport is proud to collaborate with Barbour on this limited edition collection. We’ve taken inspiration from Barbour to inform our design and then added adiPRENE® by adidas to create a stylish yet completely walkable shoe. For this special collection we used suede leather from CF Stead, one of the most respected tanners of suede leather in the world. CF Stead specializes in the tanning, dying and finishing of high-grade suedes and specialty leathers with interesting grains giving each product a unique appearance.
