A Legacy Reimagined
In the 1980s, Minnetonka was everywhere - on sidewalks, in school halls, and tucked under denim jackets and oversized sweaters. Our mocs and boots were more than footwear; they were part of the cultural fabric of the time. Now, nearly 80 years into our journey, that legacy takes center stage
once again.
We’re proud to announce a special collaboration with Stranger Things and costume designer Amy Parris, who handpicked Minnetonka to craft a custom boot for Holly Wheeler in the show’s highly anticipated Season 5.
The Holly Wheeler Boot
The Stranger Things “Holly Wheeler” Boot is a tribute to timeless craftsmanship and retro flair. Featuring signature 1980s color blocking, genuine suede, and our iconic hand-whipped stitching, this boot blends vintage roots with fresh storytelling. It’s authentically retro.
Unmistakably Minnetonka.
And yes - you’ll see it on screen.
From Hawkins to Your Closet
This isn’t just a boot. It’s a way to step into the story. A way to channel the spirit of Hawkins, the courage of its heroes, and the nostalgia of a decade that helped define us. Whether you're braving the Upside Down or just stepping out for coffee, the Holly Wheeler Boot is your link to the story.
Step Into the Story
Holly Wheeler is a character who’s grown up in the shadows of Hawkins’ mysteries. In the final chapter of Stranger Things, the stakes are higher than ever - Hawkins is on the brink, and the Upside Down is closer than it’s ever been. As the world braces for one last fight, we’re proud to play a small but stylish role in the adventure.
