East Coast rappers from the US made it popular. There was no one person that made it popular.
However some names come through like

DAS EFX
WUTANG CLAN

Mostly hard core rappers never mainstream.

PAC made it popular from the movie “Above the Rim”.

West coast rappers went with sneakers.

In 1976 the Timberland Waterproof boot was born. Original Timberlands are waterproof, water can only get in through the laces.

They were initially made as work boots, then in the 80s NewYork city dwellers & drug dealers started using them because they wear comfortable and could stand bad weather (keep them dry) while standing on the blocks, hustling. Its reputation as the boot of choice for drug-dealers and other “hooligans in Brooklyn,” cemented Timberland’s place in the culture. Then Brooklyn rappers like Biggie, Nas, ODB not only wore them on a daily but also had them on their music, as rap grew, so did the awareness of Timberlands.

I am 43 and still got my original Timberland Ortholite
