Timberland is planning to open its own stores in North Texas, including those in Grapevine Mills, Galleria Dallas and Allen Premium Outlets later this year. The move is part of a larger effort by the brand, which does not have its own shops in the region. The stores will allow the brand to deepen its relationships with locals and showcase its workwear roots. The brand is investing in brick-and-mortar sites as it aims to strengthen direct connections with shoppers in the U.S.
