Ray BEAMS works in collaboration with Timberland to present a new variation of its Puffer Boot silhouette. The shoes are set to drop officially on August 17th and it is elevated by various accents. This includes the padded ankle unit that has been added by more padding to create a collar that is five times more dramatic.
In addition to the classic Wheat colorway, which is the standard for the company, the shoes are joined by a limited edition pink and grey shoe lace. This selection nods to the Japanese brand specifically as the laces come in sets of two to allow wearers to play around and customize their options to create a more personalized look.
