SUPREME is taking their newest collaboration to the jungle. The streetwear label is releasing animal print Timberland Field Boots.

The New York City based brand is taking the iconic shoe and giving it a very interesting remix. On Wednesday, Nov. 13 SUPREME announced they are dropping three versions of the three quarter feet pieces. Included in the collection is a zebra striped color way with black and white contrasting. It is complimented with black laces, black padded leather collar and black rubber outsole. We also get an even bolder option with a tiger inspired option with a bright orange and black color way. Both feature hair-on-hide upper paneling. To make the cypher complete there is a triple black offering that gives all the winter Black Air Force 1 energy you can handle.
This is not the first time SUPREME has worked with Timberland. Back in 2006 the two brands collaborated on their first drop which was also the Field Boot. Since then they have released several co-branded efforts including hats, accessories, hooded sweatshirts and even remixed their iconic 6-Inch Waterproof Boot. The animal print SUPREME x Timberland Field Boots are available now and can be shopped here.

MSCHF, the Brooklyn-based art collective that landed on many radars with the release of their Big Red Boot just dropped a new boot that’s sure to get people talking once more. Tapping legendary Brooklyn native Spike Lee, MSCHF is set to release its new 2X4 Boot that is most certainly a riff on a classic boot beloved by many in New York and abroad.
As spotted on Nice Kicks, it appears that the MSCHF 2X4 Boot is an elaborate return shot at VF Corp, the company that owns Timberland. According to the outlet, the 2X4 Boot is in response to VF Corp taking legal measures to halt the sale of the brand’s Wavy Baby shoe collaboration with Tyga, which took the classic Vans silhouette and added some wavy flair. Max B would’ve loved these sneakers, if you catch our drift.
More from Nice Kicks:
The latest from MSCHF is a continuation of the brand’s satirical outlook as the brand pokes fun at Timberland, owned by VF Corp, which also serves as the parent company for Vans.
Vans successfully won an appeal to prevent MSCHF from selling its “Wavy Baby” shoes and the Brooklyn-based art collective has returned to troll Vans’ parent company, VF Corp, with a knock-off boot of its subsidiary Timberland brand.
The 2X4 Boot drops on March 19 and retails for $400. We expect this one to have a nice run similar to the Big Red Boot and the backstory is one for the ages.
