ROA is reimagining mountaineering footwear with the Andreas boots. Crafted with waterproof kudu leather in hues of burnt brown, the high-top silhouette fuses an insulating metallic foil paneling that runs from the collar to the tongue, adding a futuristic element to the outdoor staple. Eyelet hooks along the vamp provide a secure fit, while its Vibram tread sole offers extra grip in the case of uneven ground.

The ROA Andreas Leather Boots are available now on matchesfashion.com for $414 USD.

In other footwear news, the SpongeBob x Timberland collaboration is receiving a wider release in September.
