I know what you’re thinking: Ivy League sophistication has always been the key ingredient missing from the world of hiking shoes. Never fear! Now you can walk tall (and balanced) onto campus next semester, because New Balance has announced its redesign of the hiker silhouette (in both mid and low top) for a selection of Ivy League universities. Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton and Yale are lucky enough to get their own buttery suede kicks, with fine detailing and a bold color palate. Nothing says school spirit quite like laurel wreath tongue branding on your shoe. Not only are these hiking shoes durable for the rugged terrain (you seen what a craphole Harvard Square is?) but at least you’ll look good stumbling into class late again…
