6" Premium Waterproof Boot
About the original
Timberland was founded in 1973 in Abington, Massachusetts, and the 6" Premium Waterproof Boot was the company's first major boot — waterproof full-grain nubuck, direct-attach construction, and a lugged rubber outsole, with 400g of PrimaLoft insulation and a leather lining. The FW2020 version uses Timberland's stock silhouette with a tonal repeat print of the Supreme wordmark and Timberland tree logo covering the upper. Construction, insulation, and outsole are unchanged from the standard boot; the only differences are the printed upper, a red Supreme tab on the heel, and the price.
About Timberland
Timberland is an American footwear and apparel company founded in 1952 by Nathan Swartz as the Abington Shoe Company in Abington, Massachusetts, and later headquartered in Stratham, New Hampshire. In 1973 the company introduced the first injection-molded waterproof leather boot, branded as the Timberland, and adopted the name as its own. The wheat-colored 6-Inch Premium became a staple of 1990s hip-hop fashion, construction trades, and New York street dress. The company, now part of VF Corporation, also produces the Earthkeepers and PRO lines. Supreme and Timberland have collaborated on seasonal footwear and outerwear since 2002.
