Vans Skateboarding works in collaboration with Timberland on two new footwear models that are made for the colder seasons of the year. This highlights the Half Cab Hiker and 6-Inch Boot -- both of which are launching officially today and available to shop online at the Highsnobiety shop.
The Half Cab turns into a new shoe with its rugged updates that are prepared for hiking. This is made possible by the new features drawn from Timberland's Euro Hiker, which is a boot that was launched in 1988, as a more lightweight version. The 6-Inch boot gets its own updates as well after many different versions in the past year with monogrammed checkered details and a lacing system.
