There are three colorway palettes that launch -- this includes Grape Lead, Sleek White, and Classic Black. All of these are set to join the brand's Spring/Summer 2023 series and it retains design details from the original silhouette. The shoes were first debuted back in 1978 and it features [premium leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/derby-hiker) that has been handsewn throughout the upper as it rests on top of a rugged boot lug outsole that is borrowed from the Original Timberland Boot. Now, it takes on a more preppy approach with the help of Aimé Leon Dore -- it is set to launch online and in-store today.
