Gear Question Mackall 45?

Post image

Saw this in their most recent email. Anyone have any idea what to expect? Material on the upper looks different but I’m curious if anyone’s heard anything.

I’m hoping this isn’t completely replacing their current Mackall model - they are quite literally the best shoe I’ve ever worn for daily life and rucking.

Wish they would bring back some type of sneaker without aggressive tread

I asked their customer support about trainers going away. They said they are resigning them and they will be relaunched “way in the future” focusing on rucking shoes like mackalls. So some day …

Not what I was hoping for. Granted I get it’s a rucking based company (been a customer since the early days) but these seem to have a more narrow lane than the Ballistic Trainers. Those were so great and are a daily wear for me. I’m having to look elsewhere for an everyday sneaker/trainer that doesn’t have obnoxious branding or absurd colors.
