Timberlands awesome upcycled boots.
A project that brought together a team of creative minds to reshape Timberland’s signature silhouettes. That make use of thoughtful recycling techniques to create a series of limited-run footwear styles. And the result was a set of highly-conceptual & long-lasting upcycled shoes.

This is project CONSTRUCT 10061, where Timberland joined forces with Concept Kicks and an exciting crew including: knit specialist Suzanne Oude Hengel, footwear deconstructionist Helen Kirkum, Peterson & Stoop, jeffstaple, Solene Roure, VF Corp creative director Alex Dardinski, amongst others.
The imprint’s initial release was centered around four progressive revisions of the iconic Timberland 6-Inch boot. The first actual shoes in the series to see production were Concept:06 and Concept:20, each one designed by Dutch duo Peterson & Stoop, with Kirkum collaborating on the heavily patchworked model.
Made from discarded leather scraps, it sported a direct inject sole comprised of re-used leather and polyurethane.
Peterson & Stoop’s signature Wavy Stormwelt construction presented the white and brown Concept:20. While David Mawdsley provided the stacked sole, Hengel served up the padded collar and Nathan Alexander Walker designed the lace placement.
