Why The TELFAR x Timberland Collab Is Perfect For Fall

Is it even fall if you don’t have your Timbs on? Last October, Telfar dropped their first (and most New York) collaboration ever with Timberland spanning shopper bags, slouchy bags, loafers, and six interpretations of their historic boot. Naturally, the collection sold out instantly. 

Now, with fall less than a month away, the Timberland x TELFAR boots and loafer are back up for pre-order tomorrow at 11 a.m. sharp—and celebrities have been the first to get their hands on it. 

For one, Beyoncé opted for wheat-colored leather Mid Pull On Boot—which are also available in black—that slouch down and fold to reveal a custom emboss of the collaboration’s joint logo burnt in suede. The 11-inch length boot is the shortest of the two boots and just as unisex as the entire Telfar label. 

Joining Bey, Afrobeats icon Rema pulled on the exact pair of Mid Boots, but instead of wearing them with a brown tracksuit and fur coat, he proved just why these classic boots are synonymous with streetwear culture. A collaboration Telfar called “Hip-hop and R&B in boot form,” Rema wore sagged green shorts and a wife beater layered with an unbuttoned shirt, zip up, and a low-hanging gold chain. 

Meanwhile, Megan Thee Stallion went all the way with the 26-inch Tall Pull On Boot in the classic wheat color. While the boot reaches past the knee when pulled all the way up, it’s built to slouch, scrunch, drape, and fold. For Meg, that means wearing the boot slouched under her rhinestoned camo pants and dressing it up with an army green Birkin Bag.

But, the collection is more than just boots. The Slip On Loafter has the entire upper part of the shoe cut off to make Timbs a shoe you don’t just pull out to stomp through crunchy leaves or the dead of winter. Instead, Timberlands can be transitional, while still maintaining the classic codes the brand is known for. 

While the shoes are the collaboration’s hottest, most in-demand hit, there’s a collection of eight bags you don’t have to wait in line for. Three different sizes of Telfar’s signature pebbled leather Shoppers and a brand new Slouchy Bag are up for grabs right now as the complement to your most New York fall yet.

As seen on Beyoncé, Rema, Megan Thee Stallion, and other celebrities, Timberland x TELFAR is what everyone will be wearing this fall—now, including you.
