Alife and Timberland have a collaborative relationship that stretches back well over a decade, and now the two have joined forces once again for a 3-Eye Lug Shoe that’s elevated both literally and figuratively. Officially dubbed the “3-Eye Thickened Lug,” the new style arrives in two classic colorways and is upgraded with a double-stacked midsole.
First up is a green and brown makeup that’s inspired by Timberland’s famous “Beef & Broc” colorway a New York staple and boasts a suede/nubuck construction. Next is a rich burgundy style made of Timberland’s signature Better Leather, which is sourced from environmentally responsible tanneries. The former sits atop a towering black midsole, while the latter rests above a tan and brown midsole. Each features a debossed Alife stamp on the lateral heel, is equipped with rawhide laces and features classic orange lining and insoles to complete its look.

Ah, second chances. They re rare in life and even rarer in hotly tipped menswear collaborations
especially if those collaborations have anything to do with footwear so we must treasure them. Which is why I m here today to tell you that the team-up between Timberland and Aimé Leon Dore is back with a bigger drop at Timberland s website. So if you, like so many lost souls, wound up missing out on a pair in your favorite colorway last week when the initial release happened at ALD, you ve got another chance. And you should absolutely take advantage of it.
For one thing, the 3-Eye Lug Shoe is a banger in its own right. It s so good, in fact, that we had to officially Endorse it just last month. And now, with Team ALD taking the design reigns, there s even more goodness in the world. Not a fan of the mainline brown and burgundy offerings (I don t get it, but you do you)? Now you ve got a deep navy ( Black Iris ), a ruddy brown ( Barn ), and good old-fashion tan ( Wheat ) op
