Aimé Leon Dore and New Balance reintroduce a unique archival favorite that was famously used by Lou Whitaker during his 1984 summit of Mt. Everest: the Rainier boot. The original Rainier was developed in 1982 as a lightweight alternative after the student guides at the Mount Rainier climbing school had taken to wearing running shoes instead of traditional, heavyweight hiking boots. Aimé Leon Dore’s take on the New Balance Rainier adds a touch of refinement to the rugged makeup, with a beige suede and purple  Cordura® nylon upper construction, co-branded leather tongue tag and sockliner, and debossed flying NB on the saddle. GORE-TEX® is utilized throughout, for weather-resistant functionality, while an EVA foam midsole and a Vibram® outsole offers durable, sure-footed traction.
