Hunter and Gilles Mendel collaborate for limited edition Wellington boots line
Hunter Boot Ltd, known for its fashionable yet functional rubber rain boots, is collaborating with J.Mendel’s Gilles Mendel for another high-end collection. Hunter has previously teamed up with footwear brand Jimmy Choo.
The new collaboration will present three styles that include a modified design of the iconic Hunter boot with tall and short boot options. The styles will be offered in white or black and accessorized with a branded J.Mendel ankle buckle.
“Hunter, like J.Mendel, is a brand that combines a strong European heritage and reputation for quality with a modern-day relevance,” said Susan Sokol, president and chief operating officer of J.Mendel, as reported by WWD.com. “We thought it would be a fun, innovative way of showcasing the expertise J.Mendel is known for.”
The rain boots will retail from $585 to $795 at Saks, Nordstrom, Gorsuch and hunter-boot.com in November.
