Customer Reviews Timberland Earthkeepers® Rugged Original Leather 6" Boot

Overall I really like this boot. This sizing is odd though. I figure the right size for me is roughly 1.5 smaller than anything else I own. I've reordered the boot once already, but they don't have the next size down. I really like the boot so I figure I'll get heel pads and make it work.

I wear a size 15/16 depending on the manufacturer. I bought these in 15 and they fit wonderfully. Very comfortable and stylish. I use brown kiwi boot polish on them and, though they did darken up a bit, I think they look great, like an old baseball glove or a briefcase. Would definitely buy again.

Love these so far. The brown color was a lot lighter than I thought it would be (probably should've gone with the dark brown) but it still looks good. They aren't as heavy as I thought they would be, either, and my legs and feet don't get tired from walking around in them all day. I hit them with some waterproof spray and have been loving them in the snow as well. Only issue I have is that they're turning my socks orange, but that'll go away after a bit and it cleans off in the wash. I also normally wear a size 13 in shoes, but had to order an 11.5 in these. I have the classic Timbs and went off of that fit.

I have had many compliments on these boots. They are very comfortable. I wear them almost everyday. Stylish but sturdy is how I would describe them. They are not very warm though as I live in snowy Michigan, but for short term outside activities they are fine.

These boots are crazy good! Great feel solid boot and smooth look, couldn't ask for more.

My fiance is obsessed with these. His first pair wore down at the heels after a year or so I bought him another pair for Christmas. He was so happy! he says they're comfy and he can wear them to work at his office. I bought him a half size smaller. He is a12 I bought the 11.5 and they fit great.

Great boot, stylish and comfortable. I bought a size smaller than what I would wear in sneakers and they are still probably a half size larger, but comfortable if you are wearing thick socks. Overall I am very happy, would recommend them to anyone.

Boots are great! My husband loved them! Love that Zappos offers free shipping and return. I have never been disappointed from ordering here.

Haven't bought Timberland boots in a while. These are great. Couple days to break-in, very comfortable and light. They do run a size large, as I usually wear an 11EE in Chippewa boots, but these I ordered a 10EE and they fit great.

Great boot. Had been eyeing these up for quite some time and finally picked them up. Full size smaller than my other boots and 2 sizes smaller than all my Nike sneakers. I was surprised as just how light these boots are. Soft leather needs no break in. Soft and flexible sole. Comfort is superb for a 6" boot. My only wish is that the tounge was stitched all the way up the boot to provide submersible waterproofing. Like others stated your feet will get wet in over an inch or so of water. The rubber sole grips well and is soft, so soft to the point where I am wondering how long it will last. Hopefully it lasts for years because I don't want to own any other boot. Got these for all around snowy, wet conditions and wanted something that would look good. These fit that bill perfectly. Very pleased.

These boots are surprisingly comfortable and have virtually no break-in period. They're definitely sized large. I wear a 12 and bought these in an 11 which fit me perfectly. A decent balance between keeping your feet warm without making them a sauna. No regrets about buying mine.

I bought these in a 10 for my hubby. He usually wears a 10.5 or an 11 and the 10 fits great. He said they needed to be broken in a little at first, but he likes them. He did spray them with a protectant to help the leather last longer.

Great boots....wonderful present for my husband...a man who likes nothing but loves these boots. They look so nice with jeans.

Heed everyone's advice and buy at least a full size smaller. I would get a full size and one and a half size smaller to try on. I wear an 11.5 or 12 depending on the shoe but got a 10.5 in this shoe. I also wear heavy wool socks with them and they are a perfect fit. These are the most comfortable boots I've ever had. Like slippers. And I really like that they are lightweight. I know everyone's tastes are different but I really love the style with the high laces and the leather is a soft look and feel.

Very nice boots! I wear a 13.5 and bought these in 13 because I know Timberland runs big. The fit is a little loose around the toe but the heel and sole are very comfortable. These are extremely light compared to my other non steel-toe boots. I haven't worn them out and about but, from walking around my residence for a couple days, they are awesome and very comfortable. I bought them for the looks and they did not dissapoint on that end either!

My boyfriend loves them! But I had to return for a 1/2 size smaller. Should have read the other reviews.

These shoes are very comfortable, although a tad on the heavier side. But they are a boot, right? Also, these shoes run 1 to 1 1/2 sizes larger. I am a size 9, and still feel like there's plenty of room between the toes and the front of my size 8 Earthkeeper. I probably should have gone with a 7.5.
