Meanwhile, the working man’s full-grain leather Wolverine Hellcat Ultraspring is available with both a soft and safety toe, as well as similar metallic and AMWH blue details, while casual wearers can opt for the new Hellcat Ultraspring Wedge. All three boots get a Wolverine x Metallica guitar pick that hangs off the metal-tipped laces.

Half of all proceeds will support the Metallica Scholars Initiative—a major workforce education initiative that provides direct support to community colleges’ career and technical education programs, providing skills and services to students who are looking to enter a traditional trade or other applied learning program.
The Wolverine X Metallica 1000 Mile, Hellcat Ultraspring Wedge, and Hellcat Ultraspring are priced at $400, $165 and $150, respectively.
If you’re light on cash but still want a piece, this year’s capsule also includes a hoodie, beanie, and T-shirt featuring a skull and tool crossbones graphic.
