A NOD TO A BELOVED NICKNAME OF THE ORIGINAL TIMBERLAND® BOOT, THE EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION BRINGS PREMIUM BUTTERY LEATHER TO FIVE ICONIC SILHOUETTES
OCTOBER 5, 2023: Over the past 50 years, fans of the Original Timberland® Boot have given it countless nicknames like Yellow Boot, Constructs, ‘61s, and Timbs. Topping the list is The Butters, first coined by brand afficionados in New York and Philadelphia, and amplified by culture in the ‘90s during Hip Hop's golden era.
In honor of the golden anniversary and legacy of its iconic boot, Timberland introduces the 50th Edition Butters Collection. Re-imagined with a golden spin, each style features rich, buttery, unbuckled leather, gold accents—including a metallic 50th edition badoink— along with honey lug outsole, and all the premium craftsmanship of the original.
The collection re-issues five iconic silhouettes from the vaults, including the Timberland® 50th Edition Butters 6-Inch Boot, Euro Hiker, 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe, Super Boot, and 14-Inch WP Boot.
The Timberland® 50th Edition Butters collection will be offered in a limited run, beginning October 5 on timberland.com as well as Timberland® stores and specialty retailers worldwide.
