Summary

SOREL and Japanese brand NEEDLES have partnered on a collaborative footwear collection featuring the Ambler silhouette

The release reimagines the clog and chukka boot in NEEDLES signature purple hue with waterproof full-grain nubuck leather

The Ambler Waterproof Clog retails for $200 USD while the Ambler Chukka Waterproof Boot is priced at $250 USD

SOREL has officially partnered with Keizo Shimizu‘s Japanese label NEEDLES to introduce the SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Collection. Drawing core design inspiration from SOREL’s iconic Caribou boot, the collaboration bridges weather-ready outdoor performance with NEEDLES’ utilitarian design ethos.

The capsule centers around the Ambler, an all-weather footwear silhouette offered in both a slide-on clog and a chukka boot. Both models are rendered in NEEDLES’ signature purple color scheme and constructed from soft, full-grain nubuck leather uppers accented by subtle leather vamps.

The SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Waterproof Clog delivers a streamlined mule profile that marries Caribou design DNA with a relaxed, fashion-forward aesthetic. Meanwhile, the SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Chukka Waterproof Boot offers a higher-cut, relaxed fit engineered to provide all-day comfort across varied environments.

The collaboration releases on September 25 on Nepenthes and Sorel.
