Pharrell Williams has leveraged his position as the creative director at Louis Vuitton to engage in a collaboration with the renowned brand Timberland.

On Thursday, the rapper and producer shared the inaugural pair of shoes resulting from the collaboration on Instagram. The iconic work boots, synonymous with New York winters, have undergone a modification to showcase the distinctive Louis Vuitton pattern on the inner tongue of the shoe. Pharrell, however, omitted details regarding the release date, availability, and retail price of the shoes.

At the beginning of this month, Pharrell enlisted LeBron James for his recent Louis Vuitton campaign. On January 4th, the NBA superstar was officially introduced as the ambassador for the Men’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection of the French luxury fashion house.

The recently launched collection, harnessing the global influence and creativity of both Pharrell and LeBron, made its debut at Louis Vuitton pop-up shops in New York and Los Angeles this week. It remains uncertain whether LeBron will be the featured figure in this exclusive collaboration between Louis Vuitton and Timberland.

Additionally, Pharrell’s latest Louis Vuitton campaign could potentially garner positive publicity for him, especially considering the public criticism he faced from PETA in November regarding LV’s Millionaire Speedy bag. Priced at a staggering $1,000,000, the bag utilized crocodile skin as its primary material.

“When you were made men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton, we hoped animals would get lucky and that you would choose vegan fabrics, which are the preference of today’s ethical and environmentally conscious consumers,” PETA Senior VP Lisa Lange said. “But we aren’t happy to note your newest design, the ‘Millionaire’ Speedy bag, which is crafted from crocodile skin, because when it comes to animals being used for fashion, it isn’t beautiful — it’s abuse.”
