Timberland

In the early 1980s, Timberland boots were first made available in New Zealand. Farmers and outdoor enthusiasts who valued their toughness and waterproofness immediately adopted them. The popularity of Timberland boots among young people who care about fashion started to grow in the late 1980s. This was partly a result of the emergence of hip hop culture, which saw Timberland boots as a representation of toughness and authenticity.

Although the company is well known for its tough work boots, it also makes a large selection of casual shoes and lifestyle boots. High-quality materials, such as leather, suede, and rubber, are used to create Timberland footwear. Additionally, they are built with elements that assist comfort and toughness, like supportive insoles and waterproof materials.

However, Timberland can be rather pricey because of these factors. Depending on the model and design of the shoe, Timberland shoes charge different amounts in New Zealand. Typical retail prices for the traditional 6-inch boots, for instance, are around $250 NZD, while those for boat shoes range from NZD160 to NZD270. On the Timberland website, there are a lot of clearance and discount items that can result in large savings.
