The SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Collection pairs the outdoor brand with Keizo Shimizu’s Japanese label for a two shoe capsule built on SOREL’s Ambler silhouette. The lineup reworks a clog and a chukka boot in NEEDLES’ signature purple, using waterproof full grain nubuck leather uppers with leather vamp accents.

SOREL’s Ambler platform draws its core shape from the brand’s Caribou boot, and this collaboration bridges that cold weather performance heritage with NEEDLES’ utilitarian design ethos. NEEDLES, led by designer Keizo Shimizu, has built its name reworking workwear and outdoor staples for a Japanese audience, and the Ambler pairing marks its latest footwear focused project with an established outdoor label. Readers tracking every upcoming launch can check the sneaker release dates hub for this drop alongside other collaborations landing this month.

The SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Collection Design

JustFreshKicks breaks down both builds in the Ambler collection below. The SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Waterproof Clog keeps a streamlined mule profile, carrying the Caribou boot’s design DNA into a slip on, fashion forward shape. The SOREL x NEEDLES Ambler Chukka Waterproof Boot raises that same purple nubuck build into a higher cut, relaxed fit meant for all day wear across changing conditions.
