Oakland had never hosted a containership, but it immediately began to promote itself as a future containerport.

However, over 50 years after its inception, the original yellow boot is exploring different design avenues. Long retired from dusty construction sites, replaced by a new generation of more advanced footwear, the rugged boot is becoming increasingly luxurious — fashionable collaborations and $3,000 price tags in tow. And its most recent redesign is evidence of this. A newly puffed-up take on the iconic 6-Inch Boot has arrived from Timberland, bearing the same distinctive shape as its predecessor but with some drastic changes. First of all, this shoe’s upper is built entirely of full-grain leather (it’s even lined in the top-of-the-line material!) replacing its typical nubuck leather build. However, the most notable upgrade on this luxe boot is its puffy construction, stuffing the upper panel of the boot with PrimaLoft 400g insulation. Naturally, upgraded materials and puffy insulation raise the retail price of this boot. The shoe, which is available to shop now, retails for US$250. ✍️: @toombarker 📷️: @sneakerpolitics #hskicks
