The North Face is keeping things cozy for the winter season with a new iteration of its NSE Chukka silhouette.Recently, the outerwear specialist has curated a slew of padded footwear, all with comfortability and snugness in mind. For example, the brand’s recently-dropped Nuptse Corduroy Mule took inspiration from its classic Nuptse jacket and arrived with a textured upper, crafted from water-resistant corduroy.But it isn’t just The North Face that is presenting designs like this; adidas recently dropped a new Puffylette silhouette — and it again took inspiration from a heavy-set outerwear jacket to give one of our most important features, our feet, the coverage, and comfortability they deserve.With this in mind, The North Face is keeping up with this theme with its new NSE Chukka. The shoe pairs the comfortability of a sneaker with the everyday style of a big puffy jacket with its P.E.T. ripstop upper and rugged outsole to provide a thick, warm and versatile design that’s suitable for both outdoor exploration and cozy nights in the garden.For its technical elements, the NSE Chukka features a standard tongue that is covered in spacer mesh — this is used to make the shoe easier to slip on and off. Fully adjustable laces are also used, while the flow-through heel is featured to cradle the foot. Canvas rand is included for lightweight protection and finally, an outsole-grade molded EVA midsole rounds off the design.You can take a closer look at the new NSE Chukka above and it is available on The North Face’s official website and with select retailers such as Concepts now.In other footwear news, take a look at the new Vans x Atlas collaboration.

ASICS has just presented a new iteration of its GEL-Nimbus 9 sneaker, and this time it is coated in a blend of “Obsidian Grey” and “Clay Grey.”Recently, the silhouette has undergone various types of experimentation, with the likes of Angelo Baque, Tremaine Emory, and Rennell Madrano all dropping their own interpretations of the distance running shoe. The past releases have pulled from their designers’ lives; delving into past stories and experiences, thus, creating a slew of contrasting iterations that have all gone on to garner headlines in their own rights.However, for this new version of the GEL-Nimbus 9, the design comes packed with a mesh upper and hairy suede overlays. Rounded laces are also complemented by a padded mesh tongue and the customary ASICS logo patch can be spotted on the padded collar and heel.Keeping things comfortable and suitable for running life, the sneaker is rounded off with a rubber midsole, along with a GEL insert in the heel and forefoot. Bringing everything together, the textile lining has been used to cement the paneled detailing with darker hues of grey being seen on the toe cap, as well as along the lateral mid-panels.You can have a closer look at the new GEL-Nimbus 9 above and it is available with select retailers such as Très Bien now.In other news, take a look at the adidas Puffylette “Camo.”
