Sneakerheads and luxe aficionados prepare for a new Louis Vuitton x Timberland drop. LV just revealed that the hotly awaited collab with the iconic boot maker, Timberland, will hit stores in less than a month. Already clamoring for one detail – how much? Keep reading for that tidbit.
The dope collection, part of a broader workwear line designed by Pharrell Williams for the French luxury house, will be available for prelaunch on the LV website and app starting July 18. A full release in select international boutiques is set for August 8.
Crafted in Louis Vuitton’s prestigious footwear atelier in Fiesso, Italy, the new boots maintain Timberland’s classic silhouette but are enhanced with luxurious details characteristic of Vuitton.
Onto the price points … There are two main designs available in several styles, ranging from €2,200 to €2,600 (approximately $2,400 to $2,800). This represents a significant premium over standard Timberlands, which typically cost around $198.
Design and quality are nothing short of top-tier. The collaboration with Timberland features boots made from premium Italian nubuck leather, ensuring both luxury and durability. Each pair includes a padded collar, a soft footbed, and a rubber lug outsole for comfort and resilience. The boots are waterproof and equipped with warm, down-free PrimaLoft insulation.
Get this: the LV 6 Boots are nearly identical to Timberland’s iconic six-inch boots but are embossed with Louis Vuitton’s signature monogram. Available in both wheat and black, these boots also feature a monogrammed tongue, LV eyelets, and leather tags. Another design, the LV Boot, enlarges the classic six-inch silhouette by 15 percent for a more striking and bold look.
For anyone who craves options, the new style comes in four variants: an ankle boot, a ranger boot, a pull-on mid boot, and a pull-on harness boot, all available in black and wheat.
For the super well-to-do fashion enthusiast, Louis Vuitton also offers an “exceptional edition” of the LV 6 Boots, limited to just 50 pairs. These six-inch ankle boots combine monogrammed Italian leather with a custom rubber lug outsole and 18-karat gold hardware. The gold LV tongue initials are inscribed with the phrase, “The sun is shining on us,” a nod to a statement made by Pharrell Williams during his debut show for Louis Vuitton in June 2023. These exclusive boots are priced at €75,000 (approximately $81,000) and are presented in a luxurious leather and plexiglass box.
This Timberland collaboration is part of Pharrell’s Fall-Winter 2024 Men’s Show workwear capsule, which debuted in January. The collection explores the American Western workwear roots through Louis Vuitton’s refined craftsmanship. In addition to the boots, the line includes ready-to-wear clothing and a limited-edition toolbox bag inspired by Louis Vuitton’s iconic Keepall 50. Anyone with some extra coins can purchase the entire collection starting August 8. What ya’ll think? Cop or pass?
