Dick’s Sporting Goods’ brand Calia is teaming with Sorel for its footwear collaboration debut.
The upcoming Sorel x Calia collection, which launches at Dick’s stores and website on Oct. 2, features a trio of shoes based on original styles from Sorel’s own Out N’ About shoe line. Each of the limited-edition boots, which retail between $130-$140, feature fall-ready hues of warm brown, tan and ecru — all inspired by Calia’s own fall 2023 collection.
Sorel and Calia’s lineup prominently features the Out N’ About III Classic boots, a lace-up duck boots style with light ecru waterproof suede uppers. Capped brown toes and paneled rubber soles finish the pair — much like its About 503 mid cozy counterpart, a warm brown high-top sneaker boot with a molded runner-style base and soft shearling collars. Rounding out the range is the pale ecru slip-on wedge — an ankle bootie with ecru suede uppers and comfort-focused EVA footbeds, finished by deep golden rubber outsoles for added stability while outdoors.
“Sorel is excited to partner with Calia this fall to bring this exclusive collection of our Out N’ About styles,” Sorel’s director of global brand marketing, Michelle Noschese, said in a statement. “Created in collaboration to perfectly compliment the Calia apparel using shades of chalk-cream, ochre, palomino, and gold. This special Sorel collection is designed to allow her to effortlessly express her style, whatever the elements and only available at Dick’s.”
In particular, the line is also aiming to bring a stylish take to the practical footwear worn by women on the go this autumn.
“We are thrilled to bring this collaboration with Sorel to our athletes,” said Calia’s senior brand manager, Tracey Fetherson, in a statement. “As a brand, we’re always looking for ways to provide her with apparel and footwear that elevates her style and performance and is also comfortable. With color inspiration from our fall apparel line being incorporated into this collection, we’re equipping her with the products she needs to keep her on-the-go lifestyle moving.”
Sorel x Calia’s shoe collaboration is now available in Dick’s Sporting Goods’ stores and website.
