Timberland is continuing to celebrate hip-hop culture and how much it has grown since its inception with the Hip Hop Royalty boots. The cultural giant turns 50 and coincidentally, so does the classic Yellow Boot by the brand, which is an iconic silhouette in the realm of hip-hop.
The famous shoe gets a new limited iteration with a purple colorway throughout the silhouette. The choice of purple is to connect it with royalty and powerful themes. Additional details include the graffiti mural that is found in the Bronx dedicated to the founder of hip-hop DJ Kool Herc. The base color is contrasted against the bright metallic gold in the form of the eyelets and collar.
