In Comfort with Environmental Responsible Leather
With a heritage built on the pursuit of adventure, Timberland designs apparel with the needs of the explorer and respect for the environment in mind. This season, Timberland builds upon its forward-thinking Nature Needs Heroes campaign by adhering to its long-standing commitment to create products responsibly while steadily increasing its use of recycled, organic and renewable materials over time.
Life’s a beach this season with Timberland’s latest release of eco-conscious casualwear for the long, balmy days ahead. Inspired by the carefree culture of 1980s Miami, the collection features airy silhouettes and light fabrics in energizing pastels that reflect the vibrancy of a life lived by the sea perfectly suited to take you from one summer destination to the next.
The collection follows in the footsteps of Timberland’s concerted sustainability initiatives to minimize the environmental impact of its designs, by utilizing innovative and sustainable fabric technologies such as ReBOTL™ lining, which is made from at least 50 percent recycled polyester. Premium leather has also been sourced from LWG Silver-rated tanneries, audited by the Leather Working Group for exceptional energy savings, chemical management, and waste and water treatment practices.
Key items include the Jackson’s Landing Moc Toe Oxford, which takes the traditional boat shoe and
reimagines it for the modern day with a premium leather upper, hand-sewn construction, ReBOTL™
lining, a TrueCloud™ comfort foam footbed for lasting, pillow-like cushioning, and a GripStick™ lugoutsole – which uses a specially blended, eco-conscious rubber compound – for traction on slippery surfaces. Meanwhile, the Urban Exit Knit Boat Oxford boasts sustainable construction from heel to toe thanks to a ReBOTL™ knit upper and lining, an eco-friendly and moisture-wicking OrthoLite® footbed, and TimberGrip™ traction technology made with 50 percent bio-based content on the outsole. Rounding out the collection is the super-lightweight Mount Hancock Packaway Hoodie with quick-drying DryVent™ technology to keep things breathable all summer long.
Blending innovative features with quality craftsmanship, you’ll want to keep coming back to these
durable pieces for years and years. Sustainability has never been so breezy.
