The Royal Horticultural Society has revealed details on its first collection with Hotter, a leading U.K. shoemaker.

The Spring Florals Collection will be available in Hotter stores and at Hotter.com in 2020. For the Spring Florals Collection, Hotter has created two exclusive patterns, using a selection of the RHS’s library of 25,000 botanical art images.

“We have been searching for the perfect collaboration partner for a number of years, and the RHS is definitely the perfect fit,” says Ian Watson, chief executive officer, Hotter. “Our customers have an affinity with the great outdoors: they are active, appreciate horticulture, and, of course, need comfortable shoes when taking time out at the beautiful RHS Gardens and flower shows across the U.K.”

The team has used the two design patterns as accents on three of its best-selling products: Chase, Tropic and Shake.

“Hotter is a highly regarded company, crafting shoes that are the epitome of comfort and style,” says Shereen Llewellin, licensing

executive, RHS. “Like the RHS, Hotter strongly supports British design and development: it has a commitment and passion for footwear entirely made in the U.K. We’re delighted to be working with Hotter and eagerly awaiting the arrival of the Spring Florals Collection.”

The line will launch in March 2020, when it will be available to buy internationally via Hotter.com and at Hotter’s 80 U.K. stores.
