Timberland & Pharrell Create Bee Inspired Boots with Recycled Plastic

Timberland has teamed up with music mogul Pharrell Williams to create a pair of boots inspired by bees.

Composed of Bionic Canvas—a product derived by Bionic Yarn, Williams’s eco-textile firm, from a blend of organic cotton and recycled plastic bottles—the six-inch kicks feature photorealistic honeycomb cells on one iteration and blades of grass on the other.

The limited edition has at least one celebrity fan: queen of the “Beyhive” herself, Beyoncé. The singer wears the boots in “Feeling Myself,” her latest music video with Nicki Minaj.
