Dedicated to building footwear that is 100 percent MUCKPROOF™ (remarkably protective, exceptionally comfortable and totally waterproof), The Original Muck Boot Company introduces new material innovations for Spring 2021, including a new neoprene upper and an advanced toe and heel outsole protection offering.
Muckskin, an innovative upper material technology development that is equal parts flexible, durable and waterproof, is a vacuum-formed, rubber neoprene that features incredible high abrasion resistance for a material that is so lightweight, and of course, 100 percent waterproof. Innovating in outsole technology, the new Guarden™ Rubber toe and heel provide exceptional durability with self-cleaning outsole lugs for optimal traction.
“Our product development team is always looking to solve issues for our consumers through new technology and material innovations that will make their work and life more comfortable,” said Xavier Kawula, Senior Product Manager at Honeywell Retail, parent company to The Original Muck Boot Company. “Through extensive testing during the product development process, we concluded that Muckskin is twice as abrasion resistant while remaining the same weight as the most common upper material on the market.”
Both Muckskin and Guarden are used in the design of the new Outscape collection for Spring 2021. The Muck Outscape was built to provide 100 percent waterproof performance and versatility for active outdoor work and exploration, no matter if the task at hand is working in the garden, in the barn or out hiking with the dog. Available in two different heights (ankle and low) for all genders, the Outscape offers easy on/off and features a Dual Density footbed for all-day comfort with antimicrobial protection. A shovel ready nylon shank provides added underfoot stability when using garden tools, and a durable rubber outsole features self-cleaning, multi-surface traction suitable for most any occasion.
