The collection uses Bloom technology, transforming biomaterial waste, including algae, into renewable performance replacements for traditional petroleum-based E.V.A. components, continuing on the company’s “Built For What Matters” sustainability initiative.

“We always feel it is important to keep bits and pieces of Kodiak’s rich history in our new product lines. Luckily, our strong and lasting history as a brand allows us to stay true to our roots while simultaneously advancing forward with more modern designs,” said Karen McSorley, senior brand manager. “Our women’s Whitton provides an updated aesthetic to a work style boot, giving women of all backgrounds and careers the opportunity to make them their own. We are excited to use Bloom technology as we continue to invest in our goal of more environmentally-considered products.”

The women’s Whitton is a six-inch moccasin vamp boot with a full-grain leather upper, suede detailing, 100 percent recycled polyester abrasion-resistant lining, and 100 percent recycled plastic laces. The Comfortzone Lite footbed offers OrthoLite’s Hybrid compound to keep feet comfortable with minimal environmental impact.

The Whitton includes a lightweight oil and slip-resistant Rubberlon outsole with an algae-blended foam from Bloom. It is available in a soft-toe moccasin vamp boot, soft-toe Chelsea boot and C.S.A. and ASTM-approved steel toe, steel plate, ESR/EH styles for both the moccasin vamp boot styles.

New for Fall 2022, Kodiak also launched the men’s Modern Utility collection. The Comox boot features a 50 percent recycled plastic lining and 100 percent recycled plastic laces, PrimaLoft P.U.R.E. insulation and Kodiak’s Comfortzone E.C.O. footbed. The slip- and oil-resistant Vibram TC4+ rubber outsole provides traction.

The Tarbot, a water-resistant Chelsea-style boot, boasts 50 percent recycled plastic lining, Vibram TC4+ rubber outsole and PrimaLoft P.U.R.E. insulation with abrasion-resistant nylon padded uppers.

Adding to Kodiak’s “Built for Generations” safety line is the waterproof McKinney Multi-Use Toe (M.U.T.) eight-inch boot, the latest addition to the McKinney collection of work-style boots. The M.U.T. features a multi-use rubber toe cap to push hold and prop up materials while working. Underneath the rubber, M.U.T. is a CSA and ASTM-approved lightweight composite toe cap, puncture-resistant plate and ESR/EH protection. Underfoot is an oil and slip resistant rubber lug non-marking outsole.
