Rather than play Tetris with the items in your carry-on, the Zilker sneakers use a Digital Knit material made from recycled plastic bottles that can be flattened without ruining the sneaker’s integrity. It also means that when you slip on the shoes, the material will form and adapt to your feet to help you get the most comfortable fit.

The style comes in women’s and men’s sizing, with a 4.8-star rating (out of five). The shoes boast more than 2,900 five-star reviews, praising how “stretchy the material is” allowing you to slip your foot inside “without untying them.”

Women’s The Zilker Gum
While the Zilker presents a foldable design, it’s also available in nine colors with three gum sole options to choose from. The upper comes with a sweat-wicking material that’s breathable and even washable to lengthen their freshness — especially after a long day of walking.
In terms of comfort, one reviewer was able to wear them for an entire trip without discomfort, saying, “I’ve walked in this shoes everywhere including at least 10 miles a day in Paris. They were perfect for comfort and style. Even did a photoshoot in Paris while wearing them!”
And the men’s sizing comes with just as many colorway options with the same benefits.
Men’s The Zilker
Along with your classic neutral color options, the Zilker sneakers are also available in more statement-worthy shades including red, denim and olive green. You can also wear the shoes without socks due to its moisture-absorbing properties, while the sole uses a cushioned and grippy design to move with your foot as you travel.
One reviewer couldn’t get over the sweat-wicking properties, claiming, “my feet usually sweat in other shoes but not these,” while another shopper noted the shoe’s ease of wear, saying they “fit like a glove” and “slide on like a sock.”

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.
