The Beloved Vasque Breeze is Back

June 7, 2022

For Fall 2022, Vasque is bringing back its best-selling style, infusing sustainable materials while staying true to its classic design roots.

Red Wing, MN – June 7, 2022 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – Vasque Footwear, a family-owned company with more than 55 years of experience in the outdoor footwear sector, introduces a modern take on the fan favorite Breeze boot that defined a generation of outdoor exploration. For 2022, the Breeze takes the best elements that each iteration has provided over the past eighteen years and combines those with sustainable, durable materials at every turn.

All aspects of the boot were scrutinized with overall sustainability in mind. It lives up to the legacy of durability of the Breeze, but it’s also the most sustainably made boot ever made at Vasque. From a midsole made from Sugarcane, to 100% recycled webbing, to 75% recycled mesh material, to the debut of our new waterproofing technology, VasqueDry – which is made from 25% recycled Polyester.

The 2022 Breeze ($160) features the following upgrades:

•  UPPER: VasqueDry waterproof Nubuck Leather and recycled polyester mesh, webbing and trim
•  MIDSOLE: High rebound Enduralast Bio EVA midsole featuring 20% recycled sugarcane
•  FOOTBED: Dual Density EVA
•  OUTSOLE: Proprietary Vasque Trail Strider outsole providing excellent multi-directional traction and a defined heel break for added control on descent.

“Tried and true, the Breeze is packed with the comfort and durability it’s always been known for,” says Bryce Wernsman, president at Vasque Footwear. “We’re carrying that success forward this year and beyond by creating a product that is light on your feet while being light on the planet. This season, every new Vasque project has some level of sustainable material.”

The new Breeze will be available in fall 2022 in three men’s colorways (2 lbs. 8 oz.) and two women’s colorways (2 lbs. 2 oz.).
