Corporate history highlights. The company founded by Nathan Swartz produced its first waterproof all-leather boots in 1973. Initially, Timberland catered its durable and comfortable footwear for lumbermen, and, later, for fishermen, hunters, and rock-climbers. These long-wearing boots won favour of the suburban population of the US. As time passed, Timberland boots got popular with Dry Van drivers, hard-working New Englanders and non-conformistish youngsters. Nowadays, Timberland boots are conspicuous not only in deep forests and faraway deserts, but also anywhere in the ordinary streets.
