The Fall footwear collection launches with a line of reinvented and expanded Tretorn styles including sneakers and boots for men and women that offer function, comfort, and design suitable for an active everyday lifestyle. Drawing inspiration from heritage styles, the Match, Marley and Camden have been reinvented with rich fabrications and bold fall hues. The iconic Nylite has been updated with new materials such as suede, jersey and leather and is now available in both a hi-top and low-top silhouette.

KEY TECHNICAL FEATURES: 

EcoOrtholite: Select footwear styles, including the heritage Nylite style, use Ortholite in a custom-designed footbed, an insole cell foam technology and bio-based formulation that provides superior cushioning, moisture management, performance and breathability.

Sympatex: Select weather styles are made of Sympatex, designed with top performance and eco-friendly materials. Sympatex outers offer comfort and protection in all weather conditions, are 100% waterproof, 100% recyclable and optimally breathable.
