Timberland and Jacquemus Present La Bayeau Collaboration

— April 19, 2025 — Fashion
Timberland works in collaboration with fashion brand Jacquemus on a new project, which allows the Parisian fashion house to take a spin on one of the most notable models: the 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe dubbed La Bateau. It comes in a refreshing Banana Yellow colorway, which is a new seasonally appropriate classic summer-centric model.

The shoe made its original launch in 197,8 and the La Bateau variation retains the signature features. It also has a hard-wearing premium leather build at the upper, as softer leather can be seen around the lining. The outsole is rugged with a lug build. Some regal accents include the golden lace-top eyelets at the end of the cotton laces, with each side finished with a square and round lace tip.
