Timberland’s commitment doesn’t stop there, by recognizing natural disasters, they donated footwear and gear to the victims of Hurricane Katrina and extended its employee service sabbatical program with the Red Cross. Also the brand’s distribution center located in Ontario, California, was built to be run on solar energy and currently generates 60% of its power through the installation of these solar panels.

With a company so humane and caring in nature, for the environment and humankind, it’s no wonder that they have gathered a number of awards in their name, including: “The Best Places to Work for the next 10 years” (1997, Fortune Magazine), “100 Best Corporate Citizens” (2000, Business Ethics Magazine), “100 Best Companies for Working Mothers” (2004, 2005, 2006 Working Mother magazine).

Furthermore, its innovations have also gathered praises such as an IDEA silver award for innovation in design for Timberland’s PreciseFit system and Backpacker Magazine Editors’ Choice for The Timberland Cadion.
