Heron Preston first debuted his Caterpillar footwear collaboration during his Fall/Winter 2020 show at Paris and has since teased one of the styles through a pre-order on his eponymous label’s website. Now, Heron Preston and Caterpillar are in full swing, showcasing the Stormer Boot and Intruder sneaker in the new season campaign.

As we’ve come to learn from Preston and his work, functionality is just as key as form. A collaboration with CAT is therefore incredibly apt, not forgetting that the designer strongly believes in the importance of essential workers and how their roles play an integral part of our daily lives — something that was ever-more apparent during the pandemic.

With this in mind, Preston took inspiration from the workwear that you’d find worn on the streets and construction sites around New York City. Taking function, materials, intricate details and trims from CAT workwear designs, the designer has applied this to his boot and sneaker for something that performs just as well as it looks.

The result is a 6” Stormer Boot that’s served in black and features the archetypal CAT padded collar, pull loops, rubber soles, CAT logos and Heron Preston branding. For the Intruder, the duo put the focus on a thick translucent rubber outsole, a suede detailed upper, a textured toe cap, and an orange interior as a signature of Heron Preston.

Take a look at the Heron Preston x Caterpillar Stormer Boot and Intruder sneaker above, and pick up your favorite from Heron Preston’s website and select retailers in the U.S. now.
