Roc Star x Ato Matsumoto Hi Cow Hide Boots

ato-matsumoto-cow-hide-boots

Back in January we took a look at one colorway of these Ato Matsumoto Cow Hide Boots which were designed in collaboration with Roc Star. Along with the pair previewed then in black/pink we now have some shots of a second colorway in black/blue.

The Roc Star x Ato Matsumoto Cow Hide Boots feature a mostly black upper with grey patent leather around the toe-box, on the lace panel and on the heel. The straps and tongue are hightlighted with either a pink or blue “splash” design which remindes me of the Nike Hot Lava Air Tech Challenge. The sole matches the same color used on the straps and tongue.

Get the Roc Star x Ato Matsumoto Cow Hide Boots now at select retailers such as Big Ol’ Store .
