Timberland’s Preppy Fashion Inspiration for School

Preppy fashion is back on the streets, and if you want to get in on the action, you’ve come to the right place. Timberland has quality, durable, great-looking preppy fashion items to deck you from head to toe. Let’s take a tour of your future prepster closet.

Loafers & Boat Shoes

There’s no better anchor to a preppy fashion aesthetic than a quality pair of loafers. When you get yours from Timberland, you’re getting the legendary look with Premium Timberland® leather and a grippy, durable outsole. 

Our Men's Timberland® Authentic Loafer is a comfortable slip-on available in gorgeous burgundy or black full-grain leather. These men’s boat shoes go wonderfully with all of your preppy slacks, like chinos and straight jeans, and look especially sharp with a polo or blazer.

When it comes to preppy style, boat shoes are essential, especially in the summer season. Our women’s boat shoes look the part, thanks to their hand-sewn construction and timeless design. Pay special attention to our Women's Timberland® Authentic Boat Shoe. Choose from seven styles and extended sizes to find the preppy look that only you can put together. Always durable, comfortable, and casually cool.

Polos & Button-Downs

A breezy polo is a fun and expressive preppy fashion item, and we’ve been making polos for years. Try our Men's Oyster River Short-Sleeve Polo. It’s clean and comfortable, made from 100% cotton pique. A chic embroidered tree logo adds a preppy flourish. Shop the rest of our men’s shirts for preppy fashion choices like collared shirts and more.

Our Women's Multi-Stripe Long-Sleeve Shirt is one of our women’s shirts that play perfectly in a prepster outfit. Made from 100% organically grown cotton, you can style this up or down, with a pair of jeans or khaki pants. Shrug on a blazer and step into your boat shoes and your preppy outfit is complete. It goes nicely with a classic prep-school-inspired miniskirt as well.

Don’t sleep on our Women’s Lush Rugby Polo either. With a swaggering dropped shoulder in a sleek light beige, this brings preppy fashion to the streets and back again. This complements a preppy look but is versatile enough to match with a ton of other outfits and styles. And what’s more comfortable than a soft, oversized long-sleeve?

Barn Coats

When the autumn chill sets in, you can’t get more comfortable, fashionable, and practical than a barn coat. Get yourself one of these and you’ll wear it every day when you need a medium layer.

Our Wenham Waterproof Barn Coat has models for men and women. Style it with any preppy fashion ensemble and you can head out for the day with waterproof protection, practical pocket design, and exceptional warmth.

Shop all of our women’s and men’s outerwear for stylish, rugged jackets, vests, and other items to take on the elements. 

Deck Sneakers

If you’re looking for an alternative to loafers and boat shoes, a clean pair of deck sneakers will do the trick to style a preppy fashion look. We recommend the Emerson Street model from our women’s sneaker collection. Made with Timberland Premium leather in a clean white, they style easily and are comfortable and durable. Shop men's sneakers too, for all-day comfort and a variety of looks.

Baseball Hats 

Timberland’s selection of hats includes some perfect additions to preppy fashion outfits. Our Woven Patch Baseball Cap gives that old-school, lived-in feel thanks to a cotton canvas construction, in a beloved preppy red and retro logo patch. Add our Denim Varsity Baseball Cap to the list as well, with a curved brim that’s the foundation to a preppy look. 

Straight Denim

A pair of straight-leg jeans is a great anchor for outfits that are going for a preppy fashion style. Pair them with boat shoes or loafers and a button-down and you’re ready to go. Try Timberland’s Men’s and Women’s Straight Denim Pant. These comfortable, rugged, and clean-looking pants work well for a preppy look, and they’re a versatile staple for other looks as well..
