Metallica and Wolverine Create Signature Boots for a Good Cause
Metallica have joined forces with footwear company Wolverine to create the Metallica Scholars 1000 Mile Axel and Hellcat UltraSpring boots.
The collaboration is part of the Metallica Scholars program, which offers funding for trade school students via the metal group’s All Within My Hands charity foundation. All proceeds raised from the sale of the boots will go to the cause.
“Wolverine shares the same vision that we had when creating the Metallica Scholars Initiative — that it’s incredibly important to create and sustain a strong and resilient American workforce,” frontman James Hetfield said in a statement.
“AWMH is our way of giving back and building future generations,” he continues. “More importantly, we are helping these students achieve their dreams and transform their lives through the workforce education programs offered at community colleges all across the country.”
The boots will be out on Aug. 26. Pre-orders are available at Wolverine.com.
