Wolverine and the video game franchise Halo launched a new exclusive boot collection inspired by four different armor coatings from the video game. The boot collection is released to celebrate the newly launched Halo Infinite's Season 3: Echoes. The exclusive collection will feature colorways from the four armor coatings: Wild Kovan, Foxwood Seal, Scorpion Horvath, and Midnight Frost.
The Halo's Spartans inspire the boots collection, members of the United Nations Space Command projects which create superior supersoldiers as special fighting units. The boots collection contains a reflective patch of armor coating on the tongue and rubber lug soles with extra traction. They are also made of premium full-grain leather upper with lightweight, thick midsoles for comfort. A standout item in the boots collection is the Wild Kovan, as it entails a camouflaged colorway that embodies a soldier-based presentation, which matches the Spartans-themed. The boots collection is available for $175.
