Launching in partnership with acclaimed tannery C.F. Stead, Timberland are bringing a stunning indigo persona to their most beloved silhouettes. Featuring none other than the Timberland Premium 6-Inch Boot, Euro Hiker, and 3-Eye Lug Handsewn Boat Shoe, it doesn’t get more sophisticated than this. Refined with the same unparalleled craftsmanship and quality that we’ve come to expect from the American retailer, this special edition capsule is the definition of workable luxury.
C.F Stead has been widely recognised for producing exceptional suede leather since the 1940s, making this joint endeavour with Timberland a match made in collaborative heaven. Specialising in the highest quality of premium raw materials and traditional production, you can take confidence in knowing that you’re sporting the best of the best. Each offering becomes even more special with every wear, designed to age gracefully with the changing seasons and day-to-day ventures. Equipped with the utmost durability and technicality, this collection is a true spectacle to behold. Let’s get into the details!
Of course, it wouldn’t be a special edition collection without the OG Premium 6-Inch Boot receiving an update. The elegant indigo hue replaces the conventionally brown upper, which boasts REBOTL™ recycled fabric lining. Ensuring a contoured fit for complete ease with every step, an Anti-Fatigue footbed adapts the insole – easily removable for your own convenience. Crafted to endure whatever the environment might throw at you, 400g of Primaloft Lining keeps your feet snug.
Next up, it’s the Euro Hiker, blending contemporary steez and blending rugged utility. Sustaining the same adventure-coded persona since ‘88, the icon gets a C.F. Stead Indigo Suede makeover, adorned with performance tech you can trust. Decked out with REBOTL™ recycled fabric lining, a padded collar and steel shank for arch cushioning, it doesn’t get cleaner than this.
Blurring the line between modern and OG construction, the 3-Eye Lug Handsewn Boat Shoe utilises its ‘78 heritage for an authentic feel. The moccasin upper is carefully composed via a traditional handsewn technique, contrasting the warm-hued honey lug boot outsole. Rounded off rawhide laces for a beautifully rustic aesthetic, it’s safe to say that these aren’t just any old boat shoes.
As well as reimagining three iconic Timberland holy grails, the collection also spotlights two up and coming silhouettes. Outfitted with an Ortholite Impressions memory foam footbed, the collaborative Stone Street 6-Inch and Stone Street Boat Shoe are next to don the blue suede fashioning. Featuring a rubber outsole crafted from regenerative agriculture farms , these kicks do just as good as they look.
