Timberland

In 1973 our original waterproof boots called the "Timberland" were invented. They were rugged, well-crafted, and - thanks to an innovative injection molding technique which was new to the footwear industry - they withstood the elements. These premium “yellow” boots set new standards for waterproof performance in the footwear industry. They became equally popular with outdoor enthusiasts who needed protection in all conditions, professional trade workers who needed rugged dependable gear, and many others who just wanted a great looking pair of boots. These boots defined our brand. They were so groundbreaking that in 1978 we renamed the entire company.
