Internets! Be careful what you pray for because God may give it to you.
I begged Combat Jack to add a video element to the show he was recording. Today is THAT future in full force.
Today the Combat Jack television show starts taping in Bushwick Brooklyn. This is my outfit architecture for the show. Navajo lined cardigan with leather elbow patches ($75) and the navajo scarf ($30) from Polo.com thanks to T-Bag’s link.
Sean Price killed me one day saying I wore ‘Big Daddy’ jeans. I may have burned every pair of carpenter jeans I owned that very night.
Strictly 501 button fly classics from here on.
Timberland’s 25th anniversary edition Iditarob superboots on deck.
One word… UnFUXwittable.
Get ready for Combat. Get ready for ComplexTV
Peace to my brother Steele and the whole Boot Camp Clik. I get hype for people who have boot collections as deep as mine. Are y’all ready to get real deep with Timberland boots? I feel like this post is the shut down.
I’ma start y’all off slow with my boot game and then we gonna blast the eff off. Let’s go…
The Sport Ledge trekkers in black and brown. Not a sneaker. Not a hiker. A hybrid trekker.
Gore-Tex trekkers are not to be slept on.
These Gore-Tex trekkers (#44503) are SUPREME. I put them in my top 5 of the Timbs I own. I’ve re-boxed them for the time being until I can get them repaired on the outsole. My foam outsole is starting to break apart. The comfort of these Tims have been remarkable. The outsole is equipped with the Brake Support Flex Propel system. We’ll talk about this later.
BSFP Euro Hikers and one pair of Gore-Tex joints I copped from Marshall’s for $40. I kill myself for not buying all three of the size 12s which were in the store that day.
Cadion Hikers are super lightweight and fully insulated, plus they have a Vibram outsole. I’m still on the hunt for a pair of the early Cadion releases which was all bulletproof leather.
You HAVE to have a pair of field boots in your archives. These chocolate beauties were an A.J.Wright Massapequa Park comeup. R.I.P. A.J.Wright.
Smartwool lined day hikers are for when you want to have a comfortable grown man profile on your foot. Peep that Smartwool insole. When you flip the insole around you can see the interior undercarriage of the Brake Support Flex Propel system.
I’m desperate to find another pair of these shoes called the classic 7-eye(let) moc toe chukka (#59093). Timberland has released several iterations of this classic preppy boot. I want the ones with the Vibram outsole. Rag and Bone did a collaboration with Timberland that came out sublime. I haven’t been able to find my size yet on eBay. Let me know if y’all see a size 12. Not the Newmarket version tho’. No offense if that’s the pair you have.
I did copp some fancy Euro climbers for my sojourns out of the U.S. I feel like I wore these to Paris, or was it Montreal? Wherever it was my passport caught a stamp. You should be like me Internets. I even have a pair of Timbs from when you could still wear your shoes at the airport.
I wanted to end this drop with some of my all time favorites. The World Hiker series from Italy and Thailand. These boots are still some of the best performance based mountaineering boots you will ever find. This was a statement from Timberland about how serious and dedicated they were to the craft of bootmaking. for a dude like me who was already an obsessive fan of the brand I felt like my loyalty was completely affirmed.
I hope Timberland brings back the World Hikers for their 40th anniversary celebration so that the rest of you can catch the ‘bootphoria’ that I’m feeling.
The following video is on some grown man boot swag. If you don’t own a pair of Timberland’s already please don’t watch this video. You aren’t ready for this message just yet.
If you are over 30yrs old and you are familiar with the Timberland Boot Company and you live in the urban center or the directly outlying suburbs this video is for YOU.
