Louis Vuitton launches a pair of $82,000 Timberlands

Trends come and go, but the Yellow Boots, Timberland's classic 6-Inch ankle boots, always remain. Born as work shoes, they became a symbol of hip-hop culture in the 90s and finally a passe-partout of global street style.

Recently, in Italy, Timberland's second collaboration with Sfera Ebbasta sold out in just a few hours, but there are those who have gone decidedly further. This is Louis Vuitton and Pharrell Williams, who launched an ultra-limited and very expensive edition of the classic 6-Inch.

The new LV x Timberland 6-Inch boot is a limited and numbered series of just 50 pairs and is made to order in Italy using the Maison's iconic Monogram grained calfskin.

It is finished with 18k gold details, as well as the LV logo on the tongue, and is enriched with a special message from Pharrell Williams: “The sun shines on us – P.”

The price? $82,000.
