Timberland to open first Detroit store - Detroit Metro Times

Timberland Steps into the D-Town Scene with its First-Ever Store in Detroit

Get ready to kick it up a notch as one of the world's most iconic footwear brands, Timberland, is set to open its very first store in Detroit. The 1,400-square-foot retailer will be located at 1217 Woodward Avenue, right across from Bedrock's new Hudson's site tower.

The highly anticipated opening date for this flagship store has been confirmed as November 14, with festivities kicking off on the following weekend and Sunday. To celebrate the brand's arrival in Detroit, customers can expect a range of exciting activities including a sweepstakes to win a special pair of Detroit-themed boots, a boot customization station where visitors can get creative with laces, charms, patches, and more.

For those who want to take a photo-worthy moment, there will be a 13-foot long "Big Boot" on display. The store itself will feature an array of Timberland's signature styles in men's, women's, and children's sizes.

A brief look back at the brand's storied history reveals that the iconic "Yellow Boot" was first introduced way back in 1973, going on to gain widespread popularity in the hip-hop scene of the 1980s and '90s. Today, Timberland is a household name with its headquarters based in New Hampshire.

Mark your calendars for November 14 and get ready to experience the ultimate destination for outdoor enthusiasts in Detroit – Timberland.
 
omg detroit's getting all fancy now 🀣 - first timberland store anywhere near me, can't wait to go boot shopping (like i don't have enough storage space already) πŸ’Έ but honestly how many people really live in d-town who need special detroit-themed boots? it's gonna be a wild rodeo on woodward ave this november πŸŽ‰
 
OMG, I'm beyond stoked to hear that Timberland is opening its first store in D-Town 🀩! I mean, who doesn't love a good dose of American brand history and that iconic Yellow Boot πŸ’›? It's like, the ultimate symbol of outdoor adventure and coolness. And can you even imagine trying on those Detroit-themed boots and taking a pic in front of that epic 13-foot long "Big Boot"? πŸ“ΈπŸ’β€β™€οΈ The fact that they're hosting a sweepstakes and boot customization station is just the cherry on top – it's like, the perfect blend of fun and functionality. I'm literally counting down to November 14, can't wait to get my hands (and feet) on some Timberland goodness πŸŽ‰
 
πŸ‘Ÿ I'm thrilled to see a heritage brand like Timberland making its mark on the D-Town scene, especially after what feels like an industrial decline in recent years πŸŒ†. The idea of a flagship store in Detroit feels like a symbolic gesture towards revitalizing the city's cultural landscape and fostering community engagement πŸ‘₯. With their history in hip-hop and outdoor activities, I'm curious to see how Timberland will navigate Detroit's unique aesthetic and appeal to both locals and visitors alike πŸ€”. November 14 can't come soon enough! πŸŽ‰
 
idk why ppl need a whole store just 4 some boots πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ timberland's been around since 1973, they don't need a flagship store in detroit to prove their worth... it's just another commercial spot 2 make a quick buck πŸ’Έ. i mean, how r they gonna 'celebrate' opening a new store w/ activities? πŸŽ‰ sweepstakes, customization station... sounds like marketing gimmicks 2 me πŸ€‘. if u wanna rep timberland, just cop the boots online or in another store, no need 4 a whole city block dedicated 2 it 😴
 
omg i'm so hyped about timberland opening up their first store in detroit 🀩! like, who doesn't love detroit? the big boot outside is gonna be a sick photo op lol and the fact that they're doing giveaways and customization stations is just genius. it's crazy to think about how far the brand has come from its humble beginnings back in 1973. i mean, can you even imagine wearing yellow boots for the first time back then? my grandma used to wear those things all the time when she was a kid πŸ™Œ anyway, i'm def gonna be there on november 14th to check out the store and show some love to detroit's cool vibe πŸ’ͺ
 
ugh finally some new life in detroit i was getting worried they were gonna leave us high & dry like bedrock but timberland coming thru with that d-town energy & a dope flagship store can't wait to check out the big boot & customize my own boots sounds like so much fun πŸ€©πŸ‘ž
 
πŸ€” D-Town's about to get a whole lot boot-iful πŸ₯ΎπŸ’‘ Their iconic Yellow Boot from 1973 is fire πŸ”₯, and I'm stoked they're bringing that retro vibe to their new flagship store πŸŽ‰. But let's keep it real, the real question is: can they make those boots waterproof for the Motor City's infamous rain? πŸ’§ Only time (and a waterproofing magic spell) will tell πŸ•°οΈ
 
idk how this will go down... timberland's all about the outdoorsy vibes but detroit's like, super concrete πŸ€”. still, i guess it's dope that they're bringing some life to Woodward Ave. those boots are gonna be fire tho 😎. can't wait to check out that big boot display πŸ“Έ. hope they don't forget to showcase some local artists and stuff too 🎨. november 14th is looking pretty lit πŸ’₯
 
omg 🀯 this is so cool! timberland finally coming to detroit!!! i was thinking they would never open a store here πŸ€”. it's gonna be lit on november 14 πŸŽ‰ with that sweepstakes and boot customization station πŸ›οΈ. but what's up with the big boot on display? is it, like, super collectible or something? πŸ€” i need to know more about detroit-themed boots too πŸ€‘. also, have they partnered with any local brands or artists for this store? 🎨 that would be awesome. and omg a 13ft long "big boot" just makes me imagine the most epic photo op πŸ˜‚. can't wait to see what the inside of the store looks like πŸ‘ 
 
I'm telling you something's fishy here 🐟. It's like they're trying to rebrand old stuff as new. Detroit's got a rich history, but I wonder if this is just another case of corporate co-opting the past. That "Big Boot" display sounds like some marketing gimmick, and what's up with the sweepstakes for them special boots? Is it really about the brand or just getting people to share their pics on socials? And have you seen the foot traffic in D-Town lately? People are struggling, but Timberland's dropping a fancy new store like nothing's wrong. It's all about appearances, if you ask me 😏
 
πŸ™Œ I'm so hyped about Timberland opening their first store in D-Town! It's like, the perfect opportunity for people to connect with nature and their community at the same time. And can you imagine getting a pair of custom boots with some awesome charms? 🀩 Plus, that 13-foot long "Big Boot" is gonna be lit! πŸ˜† I love how they're incorporating the Detroit vibe into their store too, it's like, a great way to show some love to the city. And let's not forget about the sweepstakes for those special boots... fingers crossed for me! πŸ˜…
 
Idk why they're making such a big deal about this store πŸ€”. Just another luxury brand setting up shop in D-Town, right? I mean, it's not like they're investing in the local community or anything. What's gonna be left behind when they leave? And what's with the "Big Boot" display? Is that really a draw for tourists? They could've just put up a sign saying "We're Timberland now" and called it a day 😴.

Also, I'm curious, how much are these Detroit-themed boots gonna set people back? Are they gonna be priced out of reach for the average Joe? And what's with the customization station? Is that just a way to make customers feel special or is there actually some thought put into it? Need more info on this one πŸ‘€
 
So they're bringing that big boot to D-Town? 🀣 It's like they're making a statement, right? I mean, 13 feet of Timberland pride in the middle of Woodward Avenue - it's gonna be lit! But seriously, have you thought about how this is gonna impact local businesses? Are people just gonna flock over to this new flagship store and forget about the rest of downtown Detroit?

And let's talk about those Detroit-themed boots... are they really necessary? Is Timberland trying to buy their way into our hearts or what? It's like they're trying to say, "Hey, we care about Detroit now!" Newsflash: if you wanna show your love for the city, stop taking pictures with a giant boot and start volunteering at some actual community orgs.

Anyway, November 14 can't come soon enough! ⏰
