Following a teaser shared by Brand Director Victor Kan, New York-based retailer Packer has officially revealed its forthcoming collaboration with Clarks Originals. The British footwear manufacturer recently united with designer Salehe Bembury prior to its team-up with Compound at Miami Art Week, now tapping Packer for a luxurious take on its mid-cut Wallabee boot. The boutique douses the silhouette in faux crocodile skin offered in “Pink” and “Maple” hues. The erotic leather finish dons a textured pattern that mirrors the reptile’s natural coating. Waxed cotton and rope laces accompany every pair with golden aglets and deluxe energy, while co-branded hang tags receive rough-cut edges. Further branding is found on the insoles, stacked on standard Clarks rubber soles that feature a glazed design. Take a closer look at the Packer x Clarks Wallabee “Croc” collaboration in the gallery above. Both pairs will drop exclusively in-store and online via Packer on February 10 for $220 USD.
