Actor, Model
Tatsuo IsodaMs. (25 years old)
What kind of brand is Timberland to you?
I still have a strong image of hip-hop.
What kind of music and artists do you associate with "Timberland"?
East Coast Hip Hop...the music video for SMIF N WESSUN's "Timbz do work" is particularly memorable.
Please tell us about the key points of today's outfits.
I was conscious of a somewhat London-like atmosphere while daring to enhance the non-standard black color. Another key point is the use of red checked pants as a color accent.
Which country would you most like to visit now? Please also tell us why.
Definitely the United States. I want to go to a real skate park and skate as much as I want.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
Since I started working as an actor, I am stimulated every day by the differences between video and still photography. It is a daily struggle, but in a way, such daily life may be rewarding.

Six Inch Premium Boots Regular Model (Men's / Black) ¥24,000+TAX
From the time I first learned of its existence until now, it has a strong B-BOY and B-GIRL image. I myself used to dance and loved hip-hop at the time, so I have always admired this brand.
How was the comfort and design?
The black nubuck boots in a matte shade give a more beautiful impression than I expected, and they look easy to match with a variety of outfits. They also look good with skirts!
Please tell us about the key points of today's outfits.
Black boots are the star of this style, which blends in with the standard outfit of a T-shirt and denim. The autumnal brown check jacket is one of my favorite pieces that has been well received recently (laughs).
Do you have a creed in your work and life?
I only believe and convey what I have actually seen, heard, visited and experienced with my own body.
What is your recommended holiday plan (how to spend your time)?
Going to Minakami (Gunma Prefecture) with someone I like. It is a hole-in-the-wall spot for me, close to the center of Tokyo, but empty, with hot springs and nature.

Artist
AwichMr. (31 years old)
What kind of brand is Timberland to you?
My late husband was a New Yorker and always loved "Timberland. Timberlands are like a symbol of him to me, as he continued to wear them even though he was laughed at in the warm weather of Atlanta. I have many memories of them.
Please tell us about the key points of today's outfits.
I basically like a feminine style that is conscious of the curves of the body, so when I wear boyish boots like the ones from "Timberland," I tend to wear a tight top or bottoms. I also like to wear light clothes even in winter, which I think is very much in keeping with my style as an Okinawan resident.
When do you feel like wearing Timberland boots?
I still want to wear them when I listen to East Coast music.
What kind of person do you think has good taste?
Real = truth. That's why I think people who know the truth have good sense.
What do you hope to accomplish by 2020?
Building a home for a family.

ISSUGIMr. (35 years old)
What kind of brand is Timberland to you?
Yellow nubuck.
Do you have any memorable episodes about your first pair of "Timberland" shoes?
I had only worn sneakers until I bought yellow nubuck, so I thought boots were kind of austere, and I looked at many people's boots. At the time, I think all of my friends had very thick pants. I was already into hip-hop.
What kind of music and artists do you associate with "Timberland"?
East Coast Hip Hop, like the SMIF N WESSUN - Timbz do work music video. Also TAMU ( Green )!
What kind of person do you think has good taste?
A person whose charm overflows without stagnation wherever he or she cuts. A person whose values are consistent without being influenced by others.

DEVIN THE DUDE.

What kind of brand is Timberland to you?
Hip-hop in the 90s.
Do you have any memorable episodes about your first pair of "Timberland" shoes?
The first time I wore them was in a six-inch yellow nubuck boot with no leather placed in the liner. At the time, you used a Phillies blunt box to shape the boots.

Yellow nubuck in general, super boots, broccoli, etc. The list is endless.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
Sharing the groove. It's not just the music, it's everything, including the atmosphere of the street.
What has surprised you recently?
The flow of the story about a certain respected graphic designer who turned down an offer from a certain global brand was so cool and numbing.
