LONDON — A collaboration of a colorful and sustainable nature.
Material sciences company Pangaia has partnered with Timberland on their first collection launching Thursday.
The small capsule features a mule and the signature Timberland boots in three bright shades: Galaxy Pink, Palm Green and signature Wheat, which have become house colors for Pangaia.
All the pieces in the collection have been built with an embedded sustainable factor. The boots are made from renewable materials such as responsibly grown rubber, abaca plant fiber and organically grown cotton.
