Last seen in Slam Jam’s seasonal editorial, ROA returns with an array of rugged footwear. Crafted in Italy with hikers in mind, the shoes are trail-ready thanks to custom Vibram soles and shock resistant heels — the latter of which is bolstered by aradimic fiber, the same kind utilized in bulletproof vests. Lightweight construction ensures all-day comfort, regardless of where they’re worn, with the shoes ranging in color from saturated blue to dark red to light tan and even paint-splattered black. High and low top iterations sport uppers of robust kudu leather, hardy mesh and water-resistant nylon, each offering differing levels of hardiness.
