Justin Boone is always up for an adventure. The fashion-focused content creator shares adventurous style and lifestyle content on his social pages while also balancing running a vintage apparel brand and a creative direction studio. You might see him posting about his styling work, experiences on the runway, linking up with other creatives and his fashionable family. Currently living in New York City, Boone has become accustomed to the infectious energy of the city which also inspires his work and lifestyle. For a comprehensive city guide, footwear brand SOREL tapped Boone to share his favorite spots spanning Brooklyn and Manhattan.
Showing off the dynamic wearability of the Caribou boot, Boone brought us along for a busy day, visiting some of his go-to spots in Brooklyn and Manhattan. After suiting up for the day in his new footwear, Boone headed to Brooklyn Blend, a Bed-Stuy staple that is ingrained in the neighborhood’s history. Founded by lifelong residents, the Black-owned cafe brings fresh juices, smoothies and comfort food to Brooklyn. “I really enjoy going to Brooklyn Blend and sitting in the corners of the cafe where the window is. My favorite thing to order is the falafel wrap alongside a ginger shot and a smoothie,” he shares.
The Caribou design is one of SOREL’s staple offerings, ideal for day-to-day wear, but especially suitable for cold weather conditions. The model features seam-sealed waterproof construction, suede accents, and ballistic nylon uppers. Insulation keeps the wearer comfortable and warm, and a special lug design ensures non-slip traction. Made with the toughest conditions in mind, the Caribou is a key footwear option for those who dare to explore, just like New Yorker, Justin Boone.
