Original Story 6/10/25:
The RSVP Gallery x Brooks Caldera is lacing up for the runway—and possibly your next style upgrade.
Brooks is stepping off the trail and into the lifestyle lane, thanks to a slick collab with Chicago’s own RSVP Gallery. Co-founded by Don C and the late Virgil Abloh, the boutique is known for mixing high fashion with street heat.
This time, they’re giving the Brooks Caldera a full makeover. The result? A khaki-colored trail runner with ripstop panels, a reworked heel, and RSVP branding on a sleek black TPU badge. It’s like your favorite hiking shoe decided to crash Fashion Week—uninvited but looking fly.
Even with the style updates, this sneaker keeps its chunky DNA Loft midsole. Translation: comfort that says, “I could hike, but I’d rather flex.” The textured tooling and earthy tones only add to the outdoors-meets-runway appeal.
Don C teased the collab on Instagram, sparking hype faster than a Parisian espresso. He’s also set to appear on a Brooks panel at Paris Fashion Week on June 25, where the official launch will likely be announced.
The RSVP Gallery x Brooks Caldera 8 proves trail shoes can stunt, too. Fashion-forward and ready for any terrain—don’t sleep on this drop.
