Time Travelers
Wolverine World Wide is looking to the past for design inspiration with the launch of 1883. Targeting a male audience, collection is named for the year the company launched. The series of work, casual and outdoor styles is based on the brand’s heritage looks updated with a modern twist. Included in the offering are speed-laced hikers and classic 6-inch work boots. Retailing from $135 to $235, the line is aimed at specialty stores. Delivery is slated for August.
Retro Style
Hush Puppies, also under the Wolverine World Wide umbrella, is in a retro mood too with the debut of Nineteen Fifty-Eight, a collection of men’s and women’s looks based on styles from the brand’s launch in 1958. The collection, based on patterns in the Hush Puppies design vault, include suede oxfords for men such as the Yesteryear, inspired by the label’s legendary Wayne style; and the Attic for women, a peep-toe wedge. Set to retail for $90 to $100 for women’s and $110 to $120 for men’s, Nineteen Fifty-Eight is aimed at independents and premium apparel and department stores. Delivery is slated for June/July.
Copy Cats
Men’s ready-to-wear line Copy, a sportswear collection with a street vibe, is venturing into footwear for fall with a collection of athletic-inspired looks. Part vintage, part futuristic, the line includes the Studio, a low-top design; and the Elevate, a high-top sneaker. Color and material are a big part of the story, with suedes and patents in black and white playing against a palette of purple, slate blue and yellow. The line will be distributed in department and specialty stores including American Rag and Urban Outfitters. Delivery is set for July, priced at $75 to $150 retail.
Adventure Seekers
Nunn Bush, part of Weyco Group, is heading for the great outdoors with its All-Terrain Comfort collection for men. The series of rugged-inspired casuals are engineered for light hiking and trail walking and include slip-ons, lace-ups and boots built on a flexible strobel construction and feature gel in the heels for enhanced cushioning. For protection against the elements, the shoes have a Scotchgard finish. The collection is targeted to outdoor specialty and comfort stores, at $80 to $90 retail.
