Timberland Boot Company - Designed By Time


Launched in 2005, Timberland Boot Company draws inspiration from its parent’s rich heritage and the industrialisation that took place in New England and Northern England between 1900 and 1945. This was a period of significant social and political change, an era of hardship and industrialisation where goods, especially clothing and footwear, had to meet increasingly demanding requirements. Repair and adaptation were necessities; with each new incarnation goods evolved from mere object to loyal friend, with growing affection attached by their owners and an historical significance that is worthy of being retold today.

Timberland Boot Company pays homage to this important period in history and the shoes and boots that played their part in the struggle. Workwear shoes and boots are recreated, retaining the quality, durability and craftsmanship that characterise Timberland Boot Company and the goods of the time, updated with a modern sensibility that results in a contemporary look for today.

The Spring/Summer 10 Timberland Boot Co collection is available now at Coggles.com
