Timberland is once again releasing its toughest boot ever created to help you tackle the extreme winter weather.

The company is revisiting its iconic 9-inch Super Boot design that was first introduced in 1979. Also known as the "40 Below," the footwear is developed using premium waterproof tannage exclusively developed by Timberland for those harsh Northeast climates. The boot will be offered in the same rich Hazel color from the original release.

Timberland tapped A$AP Mob co-founder A$AP Bari to showcase the classic boots in a recent issue of its zine where he also speaks on how he got where he is today, how traveling inspires him, and his personal style. 

"My job is a creative director and it’s an extension of my life," he told Timberland. "The few first things I ever did were Rocky’s Purple Swag video and a video project for Stussy."

He also shares what clothing item represents him. "It’s gotta be denim. But not one pair—whatever pair of jeans I wear depends on what kind of mood I’m in."

The images shot by Shaniqwa Jarvis were featured in a series exploring modern workspaces. Check them out below. The Highway Super Boot will be available in limited quantities at select retailers and online on Dec. 11.
