Justin Timberlake To Launch William Rast Footwear Line

February 17th, 2010 // Leave a Comment

The enterprising Justin Timberlake can now add shoe designer to his resume. The five-year-old denim-based brand William Rast now boasts a capsule collection of shoes retailing from $248 to $449, WWD reports. Timberlake along with co-designer Trace Ayala will debut the collection tonight at their fall presentation for New York Fashion Week.

“We felt that footwear was natural for us,” said Rast chief executive officer Colin Dyne. “Obviously, being in the denim business, we felt the biker boot and the whole ‘Americana biker” theme goes well with boots and shoes and they share that essence and DNA of the brand. We thought our fashion show was the ideal launchpad for us to get it out.”

The multi-talented Justin also recently was named Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Club’s Man of the Year and will star in the awaited Facebook flick The Social Network.

But he still has dumb moments like the rest of all! The singer had
trouble spotting his car outside his NYC apartment yesterday, pointed at different cars before realizing which one was his!
