Jacquemus x Timberland's "La Bateau"

April 23, 2025

Originally launched in 1978 Timberland’s iconic 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe—affectionately dubbed “La Bateau” is getting a bold revamp through a new collaboration with French fashion house Jacquemus. Trading out their iconic “construction yellow,” synonymous with their brand and their famous Original Yellow Boot™, for designer Simon Porte Jacquemus’ signature “banana yellow.” Merging rugged New England grit and romantic French Riviera playfulness. The design is effortless, energetic, and just the right amount of unexpected.

Keeping the aspects that have made it a staple for decades, the Timberland & Jacquemus 3-Eye Lug Boat Shoe keeps its premium leather, chunky lug sole, soft lining, cotton laces, but introduces new details like metal lace keepers and squared-off eyelights giving it a more Paris than Portsmouth edge.

The design is stepping far from boat decks and into wardrobes around the world, dropping April 23rd online and select stores.

MM6 Maison Margiela x Salomon Unveil a Bold New Chapter

April 15, 2025

MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon continue to push boundaries with the latest evolution of their creative partnership — a collaboration rooted in shared innovation and a mutual aptitude for redefining functional fashion.

With a foundation in activewear, the collection reimagines the running wardrobe through a fashion lens. Every piece is built to layer and remix, adapting effortlessly to the fast pace of urban life.

Launching as part of the Spring/Summer 2025 AVP collection, this genderless capsule is a seamless fusion of Salomon’s technical prowess and MM6’s avant-garde sensibility. Dropping in two waves — April 17th and May 8th — the collection blends lightweight performance fabrics with unconventional silhouettes and signature design elements from both houses.

Highlights from the collection include a reworked MA-1 bomber crafted from translucent windproof ripstop and a pair of exaggerated wide shorts, finished with laser-cut edges. Core wardrobe pieces such as tanks, tees, and fitted shorts are elevated with graphic elements that nod to MM6’s irreverent spirit; oversized logos, safety-pin inspired tags, and playful xerox-style sneaker prints. Footwear takes center stage with the return of the XT-4 Mule sneakers in two seasonal colorways and the introduction of Salomon’s Spectur 2 road shoe.

Available online at MM6 Maison Margiela and Salomon’s official websites, in selected flagship stores, and through global multi-brand retailers.

Bluecage

April 14, 2025

I don’t know what happened. I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to understand it. I don’t know if I even want to. It’s like there’s a part of me that wants to forget about it, just pretend it never happened, but then there’s another part of me that keeps thinking about it, keeps turning it over in my head, like some horrible thing that won’t go away. I feel like I’m trapped in this moment, like I’m stuck in something I can’t escape. I’m not sure who I am anymore. I don’t even know what I feel. Sometimes I think I don’t feel anything at all, like I’m just going through the motions, but then I’ll remember something, and it’ll hit me like a wave, and I’ll be back in it, stuck again, trying to make sense of it all.
