On May 29, Wolverine is launching the fourth edition of its 1000 Mile x Rawlings boot. The brand first partnered with the sporting goods company in 2021. The American-made behemoths are coming together again to bring spring baseball to life, just in time for Father’s Day.

Handcrafted in Arkansas in small batches, the ode to America’s favorite pastime features a thin layer of authentic Rawlings baseball bat wood into the heel stack of each boot. The Heart of the Hide Baseball Glove leather upper (from Chicago’s Horween Leather Co.) complements white athletic cotton lace with a nod to baseball stitching.
