Fans of the world of A Song of Ice and Fire rejoice! While we would have loved for The Winds of Winter to come out, we’ll have to settle for the next best thing. And that’s the second season of House of the Dragon! But something we also appreciate is merch from that world. Which is exactly what the upcoming Merrell House of the Dragon is all about! Whether you’re team green or team black, this collaboration has something for you. So, let’s dive in and check out what the brand has in store for us, shall we?
Sneakers and TV Come Together… Once Again
When we talk about underrated sneaker brands, Merrell is definitely on that list. The performance-oriented brand provides some solid hiking and outdoor footwear. However, they are a bit lacking in the collaborative department. But well, it seems like this is about to end with the upcoming Merrell House of the Dragon collab. The HBO show was the Game of Thrones prequel that everyone patiently waited for. And it suffices to say that it totally delivered. But now, the franchise is taking it up a notch with a Merrell collab!
Mind you, this is not the first time we get a sneaker collaboration from the Ice and Fire universe! In fact, in 2019, Adidas gave us a solid Game of Thrones-themed collection of Ultraboosts. This is one of the many times during which the world of TV and movies collided with the sneaker industry. And now, House of the Dragon is following in the footsteps of Game of Thrones. So, what will this collection include?
Merrell House of the Dragon – Rep Your House with Kicks!
The upcoming Merrell House of the Dragon collection will include three sneakers, one shoe for each house. For the House Targaryen, we have the Agility Peak 5 in yellow. House Hightower gets the green Moab Speed 2. And finally, House Velaryon is represented with the red Moab 3. All three kicks will feature their respective house’s sigil on the insole. Oh, and all three will feature a very cool dragon lace dubrae. So all in all, the kicks live up to the House of the Dragon expectations!
