Customer Reviews Timberland PRO Met Guard 6" Steel Toe

I average women’s size 9..... maybe 8.5 in sandals or 10 in boots. I initially ordered 7.5 and they were a smidge short, as well as being a tad snug in forefoot volume. So I’d say they are close to TTS, but maybe made for a slim, flatter foot with short toes? I also have high arches...... the tongue is way separated from the back and the laces are borderline length. So maybe if in doubt, go with larger size? Best part, footbed is removable and accommodates my custom orthotics! Also, the sole seems pretty cushy/thick. I have connective tissue disorder, and if I get any injury, it never heals properly. So am curious to see how this met guard goes. Also, somehow they make my feet look sizes smaller than they actually are instead of being so bulky that I appear to have duck feet. That was surprising for a boot with so many areas of protection, but I guess maybe it’s that snowbooot-type shape? Anyway, this is more about fit than hold-up/long wear info, but I was surprised. And the back doesn’t dig into my leg. I prefer zippers over laces, esp with my high arches. The met guard is like a flap that lays over regular laces. I didn’t quite get how that worked from the photos. Interesting design, with several points for flexibility/ROM. It’s early, but pleased so far.

Boot fits well, a little heavy but comfortable. At first I felt like I was wearing a ski boot, but they loosened up.

Just recently got this pair of shoes. They are heavy boots but will keep your feet well protected. Style is okay if you are a fan of Iron Man otherwise some people think that it is a weird shoes. Hot spots near top shoe lace eyelets and at small toes becomes unbearable after an 8 hr. shift. Worn it just once and is still at break in period.

not confortable

These shoes are horrible! They are extremely heavy and hurt the bottoms of my feet. I would not recommend these to anyone!
