Customer Reviews Timberland 6" Premium Waterproof Boot

Love these for my college aged daughter

This is a very comfortable work boot. I wear these for light and medium duty and am on my feet for the majority of the day. In my previous boots by 3pm my feet would hurt but these are amazingly comfortable and dont get too hot with regular socks. They're a bit pricey but they look good and hold up so you're probably getting what you pay for.

This is my fourth pair going, and not only do I have no regrets at all, I'm feeling positively evangelical about these bad boys. I've always been a boot person, and although I started off liking Caterpillar the most, the advantages of and style of the classic Timbs eventually tipped the scales in favor of it. These are, simply, the most handsome and cool-looking boots I've ever seen - not to mention one of the most functional as well. Being someone who's trying to live a minimalist and more responsible life, this marriage-made-in-heaven of utility and style is in turn a godsend for me: the Classic Timberland, in particular this Wheat Nubuck style (or the so-called Yellow Boot), is my most favorite shoe of all time, and if I had to have just one pair of shoes my whole life, this would be it. Now, I have four main points. First, sizing: You will want to try them on first before buying them. My foot is a size 7 US Men's, but I wear an 8 for boots to allow some breathing space. The 7.5 fit my feet almost exactly, so much so that adding a removable insole made it too tight and uncomfortable - however, the 8 is very loose and SHOULD have a removable insole to make a more comfortable fit (and wear). Most reviews I've read include sizing concerns, which is one reason I hesitate to order shoes online - nothing still beats going to a physical store and actually trying the boots out. Second, I can spend all day (and all night!) in these bad boys and not once feel any concern about my feet - that's how comfortable they are, even more so with the Earthkeepers removable insole I took from another pair of Timbs. Whether laced up snugly (for walking long distances or hiking) or untied loosely (for travel, style, and driving), my feet are always grateful for such comfort and looks - which leads to my third point. As mentioned, these are the handsomest boots out there, and I always receive a lot of compliments, especially when paired with their traditional partner, blue jeans. However, they're really versatile - like that one likable friend who gets along with everyone, these boots can be paired with anything, from other-colored jeans to shorts and everything in between - sprucing up a really casual outfit or dressing down and "hipping" a formal ensemble (though admittedly, for suits, "heavy" materials and colors are best recommended). Wear them tight or wear them loose, and you open up different new worlds of styling ideas and opportunities - the combinations are endless! Fourth, as mentioned, they are the perfect match of style and utility - we all know these are "waterproof", and (originally) made for the working man. I had reservations with the attachment of the sole to the upper (I do still favor Goodyear welt for its toughness) but this direct attachment and seam seal seems to be a worthy challenge for the Goodyear - even my oldest pair (navy with angora), twelve years old by now and with a new owner, is still sturdy as ever. I do hate to get them down and dirty, as I also use them for fashion, but that is their purpose and not only do they hold up well, they're easy to clean up so they'd still look fresh off the oven. I'm very glad I chose the classic Timberland for my all-around, everyday shoe for work and play (I sometimes even go to the gym in them) and everything in between, and I'll keep coming back for as long as they stick to these values.

Timbs are the best! They came really fast because I have the Zappos app. GET THE APP!! It's worth it just for the shipping. Had to send first pair back because of a defect, but the lady I was chatting with from the 24/7 chat service on the app sent me out a new pair RIGHT away without having the other pair first. That was awesome and honestly made my day. Got the new pair quick and they're perfect! It's nice having a nice new pair of timbs to wear. They need a little break in time, they're kinda stiff at first and I wear an 8.5 normally and I got these in size 7. They fit awesome. Better than the 7.5s I used to get. Deff worth it! I miss the old prices, but these boots are the best and they look amazing new or worn! Thanks Zappos!
