Circular outdoor boot

17/10/2022

Footwear brand Timberland has launched an outdoor boot in partnership with designer Christopher Ræburn. London-based Mr Raeburn is a former creative director of Timberland and now describes himself as a ‘collaborator at large’ for the brand.

The new boot is part of Timberland’s autumn-winter 2022-2023 Earthkeepers collection. At end of life, it can be disassembled and repurposed. The brand is presenting it as an example of circular economy manufacturing. 

The boots are manufactured from durable leather with an outsole made from rubber sourced from trees in managed forests. The whole boot can be disassembled into its components so that each material can be recycled.
