Tricker’s honours Sir Edmund Hillary in new collection

12/04/2017
High-end English men’s footwear brand Tricker’s is paying tribute to Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to reach the summit of Mount Everest, in its autumn-winter 2017-2018 range.

Tricker’s has included a new Himalaya collection in its range for the season but has pointed out that the boots in the special collection commemorate Hillary’s 1961 Himalayan expedition rather than the 1953 ascent of Everest.

The boots include details such as shearling linings and there are models named after several members of the 1961 expedition that the New Zealander led.
