HUNTER TAPS MENDEL: Hunter Boot Ltd., known for its functional rubber rain boot, is going high-end again. The brand, which previously collaborated with Jimmy Choo, has tapped J.Mendel’s Gilles Mendel to design a limited-edition line of Wellington rubber boots for fall. “Hunter, like J.Mendel, is a brand that combines a strong European heritage and reputation for quality with a modern-day relevance,” said Susan Sokol, president and chief operating officer of J.Mendel. “We thought it would be a fun, innovative way of showcasing the expertise J.Mendel is known for.”
Three styles — a modified design of the iconic Hunter boot, with tall and short boot options in white or black and a branded J.Mendel ankle buckle — will retail from $585 to $795 at Saks, Nordstrom, Gorsuch and hunter-boot.com in November.
