All Decked Out With Timberland

Boat shoes, deck shoes, what ever you call them, they are the must have summer footwear item. They look cute with shorts, jeans rolled up or with jeans rolled down - teamed with a shirt or a simple t-shirt, and these Timberland ones are perfect.



The really kind guys over at Timberland sent them over, as I had been banging on for ages on Twitter about them. So today, I was stoked that these blue suede pair arrived just as I was drinking my morning coffee. I slipped them on this afternoon, which showed how supple they are for new shoes, supporting the ethos of the brand.



They are part of the new S/S10 collection of athletic footwear, headed by Timberland's first athletic trainers. But these boat shoes have a slightly thicker sole to support the foot during 'vigorous activity', as well as having strong, short laces. However, I will be wearing them casually, and defiantly not for anything to strenuous.

Moreover, they are also environmentally ethical, featuring Green Rubber™ outsoles made from 42% recycled rubber. There is a little symbol for this embedded into the sole, and on the insole in the shoe too, which is a great little touch.



So a big thank you to Timberland, and take a look for yourself here.
