## Inside the Sorel x Maharishi Daystorm Horizon ZIP GTX

The boot keeps the technical backbone of the Daystorm Horizon: a GORE-TEX waterproof build, durable canvas and Sorel's sculpted rubber toe cap, which carries five debossed finger-like ridges across the front. Maharishi applies its Pacifist Military Design approach, drawing on three decades of studying camouflage, army gear and utilitarian clothing.

The upper pairs olive green canvas with a black, duck boot-style rubber lower, set on a lugged Vibram outsole for grip on wet and uneven ground. A central zip makes the boot easy to get on and off, and a removable olive leather shroud sits over it, framed by military-style lacing that threads thick, coiled olive cord through metal eyelets.

Maharishi's DPM: Bonsai Tigerstripe, an update of the Vietnam-era Tigerstripe pattern, appears in tan, brown and black on the tongue and inner collar. The pattern stays hidden under the olive canvas until the zip is open. Branding is mostly debossed: a tombstone-shaped olive leather patch on the heel carries the Maharishi emblem and wordmark, a slim "MAHARISHI" tab runs along the zip shroud, and Sorel's name is pressed into the black rubber heel counter next to a small GORE-TEX tag. Vibram's yellow logos on the sidewall and outsole are the only break from the green and black palette. The boot is sold through [Sorel](http://www.sorel.com).
