The Item: Timberland Custom Boat Shoes

Today in boat shoes news, Timberland, the brand that made this famous, has launched a very Nike iD inspired program on their official site, only better, way way better. The flash application allows you to actually design your own Timberland boat shoe (a boat shoe!) down to the very littlest of details.

Featuring a wide selection of materials and colors for every part of the shoe, and I mean every part (even the eyelets), this offering is sure to make the boat shoes of your dreams a reality. Sadly, you'll have to live in England to be able to get that reality though. But fret not, the application is still tons of fun and will keep your stylish imagination busy for hours on end.
