Launching in June 2016 , the limited edition boat shoe retains its original and much-loved features while boasting a new and boundary-pushing colour palette. Based on the flags of Italy , England , Germany , France and Spain , this capsule collection of boat shoes is dedicated to men. Designed around arguably the strongest visual representation of a country - its flag - the shoe is a nod towards Timberland's international reach while also paying respect to one of the American brand's key regions: Europe . Additionally, the collection drops at a time of international sports hysteria. The flags represent national pride and, more importantly, a sense of belonging.

While using strong and solid colours such as red, blue, green and white, the German and Spanish shoes also feature a beige tone stylishly representing the yellow colour in those flags. As such the limited edition manages to simultaneously celebrate one of Timberland's most iconic footwear silhouettes as well as its European customers and their sense of national pride and joy.
