The family-run Abington Boot Company in Hampton, New Hampshire has produced hand-crafted boots for generations. Timberland shoes (their name since 1972) are exceptionally well-made, combining traditional workmanship with the latest technology. They are a classic example of an article of clothing that has crossed the divide to become fashionable dress. Their popularity in recent years as a highly visible street-fashion trend symbolizes the younger generation's growing ecological concern and "new age" approach to fashion,(1990) |
