Timberland x Ice Studios: A Bold Collaboration Celebrating Heritage, Identity, and Innovation

Renell Medrano reimagines the iconic Timberland 6-Inch Boot through the lens of heritage, femininity, and creative storytelling.

A Reinvented Icon

Timberland proudly presents its latest collaboration with Ice Studios, the creative collective and fashion platform founded by acclaimed photographer and filmmaker Renell Medrano.

Deeply inspired by her Dominican heritage, this limited-edition release brings a fresh reinterpretation of Timberland’s iconic 6-Inch Waterproof Boot, co-designed by Medrano herself.

Blending Timberland’s rugged craftsmanship with Ice Studios’ bold creative vision, the collaboration transforms a global classic into a contemporary design piece.

Medrano finds beauty in everyday moments and channels them into a design that feels both personal and universal.

Design that Tells a Story

Crafted in smooth, waterproof suede, the boot balances modern aesthetics with timeless details.

A unisex silhouette dismantles the traditionally masculine identity of the 6-Inch Boot, making it more versatile and accessible.

  • Mineral tones evoke calm and renewal

  • A striking ice-blue rubber sole contrasts with the upper, redefining the boot’s energy

  • Hexagonal eyelets and padded collars ensure comfort while honoring Timberland’s DNA

The result is a design that celebrates Medrano’s roots while embracing the shared values of community, creativity, and cultural expression.

A Feminine Perspective on a Cultural Icon

“Growing up in the Bronx, Timberland was always a staple in my wardrobe, so this collaboration has been a lifelong dream”

says Renell Medrano.

“I’m especially excited to share this project from a female perspective. Timberland has been such an essential part of New York culture, often perceived as masculine. With this boot, I wanted to highlight the power and style of women within that culture.”

A Campaign Through Medrano’s Lens

Photographed by Medrano herself, with global music icon Eve as the face of the campaign, the visuals extend her raw, cinematic style.

Known for crafting evocative imagery rooted in authenticity, Medrano’s photography brings intimacy, atmosphere, and narrative weight to every frame.

The campaign celebrates strength, heritage, and creative identity in a way that feels unmistakably hers
