Hey Rose Anvil; I am a professional that works in a variety of environments outdoors, and have been finding these videos to be really fun, informative, and interesting to watch. I especially appreciate the discussions on the history of different styles and companies. One thing though I haven’t seen yet is a video covering some of the big names regarding Mountaineering boots. Would be super interesting to see a breakdown of the La Sportiva Nepal , since it’s such a legendary and iconic boot in the climbing community. Another consideration is the fact that the companies that make this form of boot (Scarpa, La Sportiva, etc) make footwear that the users life depends on. These boots have to be extremely durable, contend with extreme environments, sharp implements, be study enough to bear the Climber’s load on crampons, and manage moisture well. Plus, in my own research, finding information on the specific construction of these boots can be tricky, and I am deeply curious how this piece of equipment is designed and built. Thanks for the great content, James V
I don't think Timberland could sue them because it's it's pretty different than there are Timberland boots. It's like considered fair use because they maybe took the original idea from Timberland and made it a whole new way so I think it would be fair use.
i saw a pair of these in the wild a few weeks ago on the train, i had a quiet chuckle dude was a straight nerd office based construction job pristine fluros never seen dirt or sun
I'd be interested to see videos about some of the motorcycle boots that are designed to look like casual (and even dress) footwear, something like the TCX Hero and other stuff in that category
I’m pretty sure the reason MSCHF added the hole to the star isn’t to distinguish the design from Timberland. Louis Vuitton has a ,quite lazy honestly, collab with Timberland that heavily features their damier pattern on the uppers and sole so I feel like the hole in the star is more to poke fun at that collab.
I really love these MSCHF vids. It's always fun to see how they reinterpret the classics. Their shoes are definitely never boring and always have this sense of fun. Excited to see which brand they poke fun at (pay homage to?) next.
Drug dealers smh. They couldn’t wait to attach black people to that and then showed rappers while talking about drug dealers with a disclaimer at the bottom. The reality of it is, black people, drug dealing and rapping aside made timberlands popular.
Also handpoint has a boot that kind of looks like a timberland it is the H 84102 model and has hand point has been around starting in 2019 and has not been sued I do no think this company will be. Also handpoint was caught making fake rockroosters and they still have models that look like rockroosters.
Some people wear shoes like this to draw attention to themselves because they think it makes them look cool or hip (hipster). I don't follow pop culture and really don't care about fashion trends or fads.
Timberland as a company do not care about there employees. I hope they rot. My wife went to work for them years after covid. She had heart problems and asthma. She needed a break from her mask. She had her heart card and doctors note. They refused to acknowledge it and it led to her passing out on the job. It took a coworker getting fired taking her to the hospital. They then in turned fired her on the spot. The gal that helped dropped that news to my wife aftwr she came through. being a right to work state. You have no real gronds for a lawsuit. Tim's can burn. Sorry really hate Timberland. These boots our interesting for sure.
With in their rights to change parody manipulate or clone a product and there are wrongful enrichment laws that allows you to hack a company or use their designs
@@genome34 you have to be from there to know just how ridiculous that statement is. If you knew how close everything is in NYC and the train system you'd understand.
Timberlands don't own the leather newbuc workboot. Since they didn't use the timberland logo I doubt Timberland has anything they can go after MSCHF for.
These are weird! They look really good on display without someone wearing them… But when someone puts them on they look ridiculous😂. Maybe it’s just the angle of the way the camera was pointing at them that made them look ridiculous. I’m torn 50-50 percent on these.
I hope Rose Anvil makes a Cut in Half Video for the New Balance 574 and also Puma Suede/Clyde. Great Video like always enjoyed it. Keep up the Work guys.
I was thinking the same thing, but not in the UK setting. Like super off brand, super cheap, embarassed to even be seen there let alone wear something from there kind of store. Shoes from a place like that. Here in the US there was a show store like that called payless, and these remind me of that place.
I'm in the design field and establishing garment design as legally defendable intellectual property is insanely difficult. The silhette of a boot is not like a logo or a trademarked name and in the history of clothing design it is almost certain that someone at some time previously created a garment very similar as yours. Unless the attempt to deceive consumers with a counterfeit can be established, companies and design houses just steal ideas from each other all the time with no consequence.
@@zzzetsulive or have self respect. Why be the butt of the joke? What point is there in degrading ones self? That is what it is to play the fool after all. Just a counter point.
@@sinisterthoughts2896what if they do respect themselves and like the boot and just let people wear whatever they want as long as it's not hurting anybody? Life would be boring if everyone liked the same thing
Shaq SHOES BRO! We want to see a comparison between high end older Reebok Shaq Shoes, and the new Walmart Shaq Shoes. Some lady told Shaq the named player shoes are too expensive for a working mom to buy them for her kid, and so he switched to Walmart. We want to know if Walmart Shaq Shoes are any good for the price.
The inner city origin of timbs making the mainstream jump is the same as Carhart. Drug dealers in nothern cities like Chicago and NYC love having a durable warm coat with a lot of pockets lol. Started in Chicago first, probably due to the proximity to farming communities in the midwest that have always loved the brand.
I do too. I've got some helly hansen and Patagonia jackets. But I'll usually wear my comfy, warm, easy to layer over whatever, with easy to access and use pockets ugly jacket.
Basically. They are the even trendier version of "supreme". Buying their product is a joke, and by doing so they convince the customer they are in on the joke, but in reality they ARE the joke. A fool and their money...
It's an art boot manufactured in a limited run. It's not exactly something the average proletarian is going to buy. White collar, salaried proletarians might, and I expect the semi-proletariat, petite bourgeoisie, and bourgeoisie will buy them. But selling a piece of art isn't a successful way to expropriate the proletariat, especially compared to the expropriation inherent to the definition of the proletariat viz. their participation in wage labour. Timberlands themselves are bought by proletarians (and lumpenproles, like drug dealers), but as the video explained, that was because of their practicality as a waterproof workboot.
@@Salsmachev Sure it's a successful means of extraction of wealth. $400 is well within the means of working class folks. Especially since the vast majority have trouble making wise financial decisions. Myself included. Keeping up with The Jonses trumps a lot of common sense. Especially in the working class.
@@EmoDKTsuchiya Something like 40% of Americans can't afford a $400 emergency, and you're expecting them to afford a $400 shoe that isn't even a practical shoe? And even if a Starbucks barista does buy these shoes, that's tiny compared to the expropriation carried out by their employer and their landlord. If you're actually interested in the wellbeing of the proletariat, I would suggest focusing less on individual consumer choices and more on the structural issues of class conflict.
@@Salsmachev I'm going off what I observe. Plenty of folks I know living paycheck to paycheck still prioritize keeping up the appearances of success. We can't pretend that a fool isn't easily separated from his money. The individual is just as responsible. Especially when it's all to easy to feign ignorance and avoid being honest with ourselves. That being said, I agree with you. Class conflict is a big issue that conveniently distracts us from the root cause of situations like this.
I think they look cool actually. but I can't afford normal timbs so yeah. they're definitely not for everyone but if you like to play around with fashion they're nice I think. and they look more usable than wavy vans
I just realised ive had my timbs for 3 years theyre a bit dirty but perfectly worn in It all started when i worked as a paper delivery guy in the winter and got stuck in a ditch and lost my soles on some cheap 30$ boots I bought a pair of timbs in pure frustration and have never looked back since that Ill probably get the pro version next time, as i find myself in more construction, industrial or landscaping work nowadays
This commentary is full of it. Tims have been a thing since the 1980s in New York City, predominantly in the south Bronx. By 1987 tims stocks doubled, and when it was brought attention by Harry Allen, minister of information for Public Enemy, of the the lack of representation in their advertising campaign, the CEO of the company replied that their company didn’t need the inner city community to make money. A boycott shortly followed and timberland stock dropped by 30% which forced the company to admit that the inner city youth was a huge revenue source for the company and subsequently forced the company to add more people of color in their advertising campaign.
These are probably the furthest from looking like Timberlands, plus they're SO FU@KING UGLY I don't think Timberland would want to even associate these boots with theirs. Even though timbs are probably the most uncomfortable boots out there, they've definitely fell off with quality over the years
With an average CPM for channels around 1mil subs being $9.30(ish)…..if we cut that in half, this video made $500 for every 100,000 views. That’s a conservative estimate. Do the math folks.
