Customer Reviews Timberland White Ledge Mid Waterproof

I have an older pair of the Chocorua hikers in 10M. I ordered the White Ledge hikers in 10.5M and they were way too narrow and length a bit too long. I reordered the White Ledge in 10W and they were just as narrow if not more than the 10.5M. Sent both back. I think Timberland's sizing is messed up.

Bought these as my first pair of boots from Timberland, the company's reputation being one of making quality products. Right out of the box, I was pleased: the boots were just as the picture on the website showed them to be. They looked great. Next thing, I tried them on (of course!) for a 10 fit: perfect. Not giving it a second thought, I threw the box away: looks great, feel great, I had no reason to send them back. The next day I wore them to work. It had rained overnight, the ground was wet, with puddles in some places, and there was a light drizzle. I didn't care: my boots were waterproof! Not! When I got home from work that afternoon, I took the boots off and noticed that the thick light grey socks I wore that morning were darker around the toes, parts of the arch and the heel, on both feet. Whaat?? I had worn the boots all of my 10 hour day and never felt that my feet had been wet after the short walk to the car in the parking lot that morning. I should have read the description of the boots as 'mid waterproof ' . Ok, bad pun. Be that as it may, I really like the boots: they look great, are very comfortable and strong ( apparently). My pair may have been that one pair in ten thousand that was not perfectly watertight, unfortunately.

Work and Everyday Shoes. Ok A Little Small

These shoes are good for walking. Feet feel comfortable. I wish the sole will last longer.

While I really do like the fit and weight of these boots, they're not meant for blazing your own trail, so to speak. They are great on dry trails but as soon as the ground gets wet they lose all sense of traction. Navigating down moderate to small hills on the trail was a tad sketchy as these boots couldn't seem to hold grip. Last weekend while walking up an old river bed they were downright dangerous. The water on the rocks made me have to caution every step of my way. There was absolutely no traction at all. I usually don't post reviews of products cuz who has time for that, but this needs to be shared. These boots are great for a dry trek through the woods, but once H20 is involved they are a No-Go. I will be looking elsewhere for a different pair of go-to boots.

Law enforcement

As a hiking boot, they are fine but they are not waterproof because the upper and the sole have separated some. The material used to seal the two pieces has come loose and lets water in. Very disappointed for them to leak. I have had them a year but have not worn them a lot. I' sure they will not be covered by warranty as I did not save the paperwork. Thought the "waterproof" claim was too good to be true.

I returned the shoes and plan to get something else from Timberland. Timberland hiking shoes are about the only shoes I can wear due to foot problems. However, these were too stiff, maybe it was the water proofing material. Did not feel right and felt uncomfortable so I decided right away to return them. Plan to buy a different Timberland shoe.
