The new World Hiker Boot from Stüssy x Timberland
Gorpcore is more alive than ever
January 12th, 2023
After their historic collaboration back in 2014, Stüssy and Timberland have come together again to sign two new versions of the classic World Hiker Boot. The hiking boot, made famous by Timberland's 2018 collaboration with Supreme, represents a new chapter in the long wave of the gorpcore trend that has brought gear and aesthetics from the world of climbing and hiking to the streets of cities around the world through the pursuit of performancewear capable of helping the wearer throughout their daily lives.
The result of the collaboration, presented through a campaign signed by Alassan Diawara, are two new colorways of the World Hiker Boot, one black and one beige, the tongue of which is decorated with Stüssy's branding engraving. Both models then feature Vibram soles and two different pairs of laces (one matching and one contrasting), and while the black version is constructed of regular leather, the beige version features a suede upper and leather details.
