The Louis Vuitton x Timberland collaboration is upon us, and while we’re sure many heads in the different boroughs throughout New York City wouldn’t mind rocking some fresh construction boots with the Louis V imprint etched all over them, we’re not sure that’s going to be the case with the price tags these are carrying with them.

According to Highsnobiety, the collaboration is rumored to be releasing Aug. 8. We’ve seen the 6-inch construction boots with the “LV” stamp on the tongue, but it seems like we’re also getting a Louis Vuitton version of the classic “40 Below” boots that Tupac made famous in his breakthrough role as Bishop in the cult classic film, Juice.

We’re not gonna lie, these are hella tough. Still, a retail price of $3,000 almost guarantees you won’t be seeing these in your hood anytime soon… if ever.
Per Highsnobiety:
Rumors are swirling that Louis Vuitton’s New York AF collaboration with Timberland is hitting stores on August 8. That’s perfect for all the real Timb steppers who hit pools and beaches with 6-inchs all summer. And a leaked image from what looks like a line sheet distributed by Louis Vuitton sales associates reveals that a “LV Boot Ranger Boot” will be priced at $2,990.
It’s worth noting that, though August is a plausible release date as the LV Timbs are part of Pharrell’s FW24 collection, this info is unconfirmed.
We remember when a pair of construction boots went for $100, but once prices hit $190 a lot of heads fell back. We’re not sure if a pair of $3,000 Timbs will have heads flocking to grab a pair, but don’t be surprised if you see a few rappers or athletes rocking these joints when they’re out in public. Feels like they’ll be the only heads willing to shell out big bucks to rock a pair of construction boots with the “LV” emblem on them.
What do y’all think of Louis Vuitton’s remix of the classic Timberland silhouette? Let us know in the comments section below.

We the Free Barrel Jeans have become a controversial denim style for its exaggerated horseshoe-like legs that have some people claiming it’s the shape of the summer, while others find the look practically impossible to style. Thankfully, TikTok has some ideas on the best way to wear the viral barrel jeans.

Trending on Billboard

More than 27 million TikTok videos have been made about the We the Free Barrel Jeans, with users showing off how to style the look in the most fashion-forward way. TikToker Julia Huynh has earned around 1.1 million views on the platform, where the user claims the reason the style works isn’t a result of “my body — I think it’s the way I wear them.” She then proceeds to theorize that long and low-rise fits will look more flattering than a cropped style.

While the Free People denim and barrel jeans in general have fashion lovers questioning its stylishness, that hasn’t stopped people from stocking up on the look. Free People’s version is not just under $100, it also comes in 15 washes to choose from — and it’s already selling out fast.

To make sure you get your hands on a pair to test the look out for yourself, you can shop the exact barrel jeans below.

We the Free Good Luck Mid-Rise Barrel Jeans

The We the Free barrel jeans not only come in a variety of shades, but feature three lengths: short, regular and long. The brand recommends staying true to your size or sizing up, depending on how loose and baggy you want the denim to feel. It’s also designed using Free People’s most rigid denim, which means there won’t be a lot of stretch.

The barrel jeans have even been curvy-approved, with TikToker Brieana Banks claiming, “I’m convinced that a thick girl invented barrel jeans.”

If you’re already obsessed with the denim style or just want to add a few more to your rotation, we also rounded up similar styles from popular brands below.

Which Are the Best Barrel Jeans?

To help you build out your trendy jeans collection, keep reading to find some of the top-rated and bestselling barrel jeans online now.

AE77 Premium Barrel Jean

American Eagle’s barrel jean comes in two washes — dark and light — so you can show off the look year-round. The denim features a mid-rise fit made using a more rigid denim that comes from the brand’s sustainable fashion line. The rinse was also created to look vintage-like for a more retro appearance.

ELOQUII Plus Size The Barrel Jean

Target’s plus-size barrel jeans give off a more ’90s look with the classic medium blue wash that’s slightly faded in the center of the legs. There is a high-rise fit that sits above your waist, and features a mid-stretch material that will loosen slightly with more wear to give off a more worn-in feel.

Pilcro Heritage Curve Mid-Rise Barrel Jeans

Anthropologie wasn’t messing around with its version of the famous barrel jean. The company provide four different fits to choose from — petite, regular, tall and plus — to help you get the most comfortable look. Plus, it has a lower rise and two vintage-inspired washes to choose from.

Loose Barrel Baggy Jeans

Walmart’s barrel jeans embrace a laid-back look with a baggy style and low-rise waist. If you’re looking outside of the classic denim blue look, these jeans come in a range of washes, including this versatile khaki shade you can dress up or down.

Barrel Jeans

Garage offers a slightly less exaggerated barrel jean look, which still has the famous horseshoe shape — just not as wide — to give off more of a skater appearance. You can also take advantage of the five-pocket styling and cotton material that’ll get softer with every wash.

GREAIDEA Mid Rise Barrel Jeans

Amazon is keeping things crisp with these white barrel jeans you can wear to brunch or drinks with friends. The shade makes it easy to dress down with a crop top or pair it with a blouse for a dressier feel. Since it features a low-rise waist, it creates a more relaxed vibe, while the pockets in the front and back allow you to store small essentials such as your phone and cash.

What Are Barrel Jeans?

While TikTok has been labeling the jeans “barrel,” the style is known by a couple other names, including “balloon” and “horseshoe” jeans. What sets it apart from the classic wide-leg jean is the fact that the design flares out at the thighs and tapers off by the ankles. This gives it that rounded shape similar to a barrel.

Are Barrel Jeans in for 2024?

Barrel jeans have been going viral all over social media for months now, making it clear that the look isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Though it has the fashion community theorizing the best way to style the denim look, that hasn’t stopped people from clamoring to stock up on as many styles as possible.

Sergio Pérez is one of the most popular racers on the F1 circuit as part of the Red Bull racing team, but it was the Mexican driver’s style that captured the attention of Formula One fans last weekend.

Though APL is best known for its performance footwear (think running shoes and training shoes), the new sneakers are part of the brand’s sport-inspired lifestyle footwear. APL is also the official footwear partner for Red Bull Oracle Racing.

Trending on Billboard

Fans of Pérez can buy the exact pair of APL sneakers he sported, but sizes are selling out fast which means you won’t want to wait too long before adding the pair to your cart. Keep reading to shop the casual sneakers below.

Men’s Nostalgia ’87 Sneakers

The APL sneakers come with a $430 price tag, but it’s instantly clear why, as the design comes with a handcrafted upper made from full-grain leather for a more designer touch. Inside, the shoe offers the popular APL Souffle Sockliner to swaddle your feet in total comfort. You can also choose from a selection of four neutral colorways including an all-ivory version, white and black, white and dark green and Pérez’s selection, mentioned above. It’s a more minimalist sneaker and one that instantly elevates the APL brand — and your personal style as well.

The shoes are available in men’s and women’s sizing. Since the sneakers also come in a neutral two-tone coloring, it’ll be easy to pair with your F1-inspired outfits as well as everyday looks including jeans and T-shirts.

And, if you want to keep expanding your Formula 1 merch with unique pieces you can proudly sport on and off the racetrack, brands including Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister have created exclusive collections featuring vintage-inspired graphic T-shirts and hoodies that’ll help complete your retro aesthetic.

Next up in Formula 1 races is Spain’s GP, which will see Pérez start with a three-grid penalty after he drove his car in unsafe conditions during the Canadian GP, according to ESPN. While Pérez may be entering the next stage of races with a penalty under his belt, if F1 Montrela proved anything it’s that he’ll most likely show up in style.
