Rockport Footwear: AW12 Collection

Rockport AW12 Collection

Since its founding in 1971, Rockport has had a simple philosophy: “Engineer comfortable shoes using the latest in advanced technologies”. Fast-forward 40 years and Rockport leads the pack in making style comfortable for modern professionals around the world.

Rockport’s endless endeavour to push the boundaries of footwear technology sees the label creating some of the world’s most sought-after styles. Renowned for their comfort and practicality whilst never sacrificing an inch of style, their latest offering doesn’t disappoint.

An easy way to treat your feet, Rockport’s AW12 collection is a feast of styles, colours, fabrics and technology. The technology is perhaps the major selling point for all silhouettes, and is broken up into three types: adiPRENE, truWALK and Hydro-Shield.

adiPRENE Technology

Since coming under the ownership of the adidas brand, all Rockport styles feature adiPRENE – a modern sole that provides maximum comfort and ensures the shoes are incredibly light:

The Fairwood 2 Chelsea Boots are classic, durable boots that are styled to perfection and right on trend for this season. With the inclusion of Rockport and adidas’ adiPRENE technology, they are a pleasure to wear every day, so you don’t have to sacrifice comfort for style:

truWALK Technology

Other styles also incorporate Rockport’s most championed piece of shoe technology; truWALK. A system that works with your body to create the perfect stride, it means you’re always comfortable, whether commuting to the office or road running at the weekends:

Hydro-Shield Technology

The final bit of shoe tech to be incorporated within the range is Hydro-Shield, a unique waterproof lining that is built into the leather with a seam sealant – ensuring you stay completely dry, come rain or snow.

With a padded collar for extra comfort, full grain leather construction and the aforementioned adiPRENE sole, these Lux Lodge boots are finished with Rockport’s Hydro-shield technology, making them the perfect boot for ski season and other weekend adventures.
