# DJ-Designed Work Boots These DJ Khaled Timberlands Have a Bold Military Green Colorway By Riley von Niessen | Published 2017-01-24 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dj-khaled-timberland References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/2017/01/20/dj-khaled-timberland-boots-champs/) & [timberland](https://www.timberland.com/?dfbsdhjb) These DJ Khaled Timberlands are eye-catching, however perhaps a little less so than one might expect from a record producer who's known for yelling his name on tracks and documenting what seems to be his every living moment on [Snapchat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nfl-x-snapchat-creator-program). The reworked work boots reportedly came from a collaboration that the record producer did with Champs Sports. With the uppers constructed from premium leather, the deep olive hue that marks them has a lot of durability and the boots are guaranteed to keep their wearer safe from seasonal elements. Unlike traditional models of the brand's [classic '6-Inch' silhouette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-studios-x-timberland), the collaboratively made DJ Khaled Timberlands feature a leather tag that has a red wax-like imprint and re-engineered laces that are said to "stay tied all the time." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.2/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celeb Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Collaborative Footwear:** The DJ Khaled Timberlands highlight the trend of collaboration between celebrities and footwear brands to create unique and eye-catching designs. - **Bold Colorways:** The use of a bold military green colorway in the DJ Khaled Timberlands reflects the trend of vibrant and attention-grabbing hues in footwear fashion. - **Durable Work Boots:** The DJ Khaled Timberlands showcase the trend of incorporating premium materials and construction techniques into work boots for increased durability and protection. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion and Footwear:** The collaboration between DJ Khaled and Timberland demonstrates the potential for partnerships between fashion brands and celebrities to drive sales and brand awareness. - **Celebrity Brand Collaborations:** The success of the DJ Khaled Timberland collaboration inspires opportunities for other celebrities to collaborate with brands in various industries to create unique products and reach new markets. - **Workwear and Safety:** The DJ Khaled Timberlands cater to industries such as construction, manufacturing, and outdoor work by providing durable and stylish work boots that meet safety standards. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rebellious Camo Boot Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soldier-x-timberland.md) - [Revamped Luxury Leather Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timberland-waterproof-luxe-boot.md) - [Rugged Field Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/field-boot-gtx.md) - [Metallic-Adorned Rugged Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veneda-carter-4.md) - [Refined Field Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/field-boots-gtx.md) - [Workwear-Themed Fashion Team-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/telfar-4.md) - [Rugged Collaborative Trail Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibram-mash-field-boot-gtx.md) - [Reworked Heritage Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-studios-x-timberland.md) - [High Fashion Workwear Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-and-timberland.md)
