COLLABORATION BRIDGES HERITAGE WITH BOLD AND TIMELESS DESIGN
MAY 18, 2023: With a mutual passion for timeless design and authentic connection to New York City, Timberland and Aimé Leon Dore launch their latest collaboration, reimagining Timberland’s iconic 3-Eye Lug Handsewn Boat Shoe in classically Aimé Leon Dore colorways and aesthetic.
Aimé Leon Dore was founded in 2014 and is known for its simple, yet powerful designs with an aesthetic that is both unique and timeless. This Timberland® x Aimé Leon Dore Authentics Three-Eye Classic Handsewn Shoe features an upper covered by a flat full-grain leather inspired by Aimé Leon Dore’s feel good, luxury palette. The handsewn construction pays homage to the authentic quality of Timberland with its supportive rubber lug outsole, and a 360-degree lacing provides a custom fit for all-day comfort.
The collection is available in all-new colorways Grape Leaf and Sleek White as well as classic Black, in men’s sizes 6-12, 13, 14, 15. A signature Aimé Leon Dore branded flag label features on the rear outside panel, signaling the partnership.
Timberland first introduced its influential 3-Eye Lug Handsewn in 1978, combining a premium handsewn leather boat shoe upper with the brand’s rugged boot lug outsole from The Original Timberland Boot™, which celebrates its 50th Anniversary this year. This never-before-seen style had all the craftsmanship of a boat shoe, with rugged performance for the outdoors, creating an entirely new category of footwear.
The Timberland® x Aimé Leon Dore Authentics Three-Eye Classic Handsewn Shoe retails at $190 and drops at Timberland.com, AimeLeonDore.com, and Aimé Leon Dore New York City and London flagship stores May 19, 2023.
