Ronnie Fieg, a New York-based clothing and footwear designer and the current owner and operator of Kith, worked collaboratively to design a fresh premium Timberland.
Using the American outdoor specialist's '6-Inch Boot' silhouette, Ronnie Fieg utilizes pastel pink on the entirety of the upper, which is constructed from durable soft suede. This color is extended all the way through to the tongue, laces and the tag that dangles from them, making for a minimalist look that's simultaneously eye-catching.
Rather than the traditional deep beige gum sole, Ronnie Fieg features a white lug sole on the premium Timberland. This brings a touch of contrast to the boot, working well with the pastel pink and the silver accents that decorate it.
