Fashion label Marcelo Burlon showcased its extensive Fall/Winter 2018 collection at Milan Fashion Week earlier this year, and amongst that capsule are some collaborations done with Timberland, including its 6 Boot. The silhouette perfectly fuses sportswear functionality with grungey design cues. It boasts a captivating gradient tonal design throughout its entire upper, blending bright red to black. The toe area and vamp are black as it slowly transitions along the side into the red color going upwards to the padded collar.
There are branding details that read "Marcelo Burlon County of Milan" across the tongue and the heel, with the signature Timberland tree logo on the bottom. The boots are constructed from 100% leather materials and is rounded off with a tag and lug sole.
