In a time when many Americans could use a pick-me-up, Danner is delivering with a new collaboration with Madhappy. The lifestyle brand brings its optimistic ideology to Danner‘s heritage Mountain Light boot in two colorways for men and women.

As for all of the brand’s styles, boots are built in Portland, OR, using Danner’s one-piece leather design. Construction eliminates openings in the tongue area to keep out debris and water in a rich, durable suede. For the Madhappy styles, the brands selected punch pink and chestnut colorways for an updated look. The shoes feature Danner’s stitchdown construction to offer increased stability underfoot as well as the style’s classic aesthetic, largely unchanged from its original 1980 debut.

“Because of our brand’s guiding principles, we have always found natural synergy with durable products intended for outdoor use, as there are such clear connections between time spent outside and an improved mental state. We were thrilled to partner with the Danner team to create our own iteration of such an iconic boot that’s built for getting outside–whether that’s on a hike in nature or in an urban environment.” — Noa Raf, Co-founder, Madhappy
