A collection of new Timberlands aim to remix the American footwear brand's classic appearance -- swapping out the rugged look for one that's much more refined.
Both the all-black and chestnut variations come outfitted in premium leather, straying from the suede that's usually seen for a look that's a bit sleeker. This is complemented by stitching of a different tone that decorates the sides of the new TImberlands artfully -- pairing well with perforated patterns that coincide with it.
On the chestnut colorway, the boots are finished off with a white sole that offers a clean contrast, while the black colorway is completed with a deep beige sole that blends into the leather upper at certain points.
