Timberland Goes Big to Celebrate 50 Years of the Original Yellow Boot
Last year marked the 50th anniversary of Timberland’s iconic Original Yellow Boot, and the workwear brand is not done celebrating yet. In their latest campaign, aptly titled “ICONIC,” Timberland enlists four equally iconic creatives to showcase the enduring legacy of their signature footwear.
Naomi Campbell Leads the Pack
Supermodel Naomi Campbell takes center stage in the campaign, leaving little to the imagination as she poses in nothing but her Original Yellow Boots.
Teddy Swims Shines in the Spotlight
Singer-songwriter Teddy Swims also makes an appearance, with a striking shot where his grills glow and his OG Boots are slung over his shoulder. Swims praises the boot for its consistency and timeless style, stating “It’s always fresh no matter what year it is, no matter what you put on.”
Slawn and Kai-Isaiah Jamal Add Their Own Flair
Nigerian artist Slawn and model, poet, and non-binary, trans visibility activist Kai-Isaiah Jamal round out the campaign, each showcasing their unique style and love for the Original Yellow Boot. Slawn declares the boot as “classic” and “very me,” while Jamal defines “iconic” as something with a lasting legacy and cultural impact.
Collaborations Galore
Last year alone, Timberland collaborated with luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Wales Bonner, and White Mountaineering to put their own spin on the iconic silhouette. The “ICONIC” campaign is just another testament to the enduring appeal and cultural significance of the Original Yellow Boot.
