Timberland continues to grow its new ongoing Built for the Bold campaign as it showcases three new collaborations that include the talents of Samuel Ross‘ A-COLD-WALL*, WHO DECIDES WAR, and Veneda Carter. The first features work with Veneda Carter as she delivers two footwear silhouettes that update the signature Original Yellow Boot with 6-inch Patent Leather Boots accented with co-branded dog tags and the Tall Lace boots with 100% nubuck leather with a stiletto heel.
Speaking about the designs, Carter states, “Growing up in the ’90s and 2000s, I was super fascinated by hip hop culture and how Timbs were styled and worn by some of my favorite artists [...] To have the opportunity to work with Timberland to create my own personal spins on their icon has been such a cool experience. This is a brand I’ve loved for years – they really created boot culture and I’m excited to be part of it.”
