I bought these shoes in a store. The only problem I had with this shoe is that they are not waterproof. At least the ones I got. Walking in the slush of NYC, I found it really annoying to have my feet wet after spending so much on this shoe. Thank god it didn't snow last year. I need to get a new pair for this year.

I would like to get these boots again but they fell apart in weeks. The tongue on both boots fell off and I had to sow and glue them back together. Also the sole came apart and is held together with glue.

Totally uncomfortable and way too large right out of the box. Hurt very much to walk around in, the soul has an arch that won't straighten and hurts more the longer you have them on. Tried to form them to my feet with the hot water trick and got nowhere.

Zappos sent me the wrong boot... The box was correct, but when I opened it, there was a completely different pair of boots inside. Very strange.
I'd also recommend:
for boots, I like: Sorrel, Boggs, Frye

Got a pair and within 2 months they started falling apart. No excessive wear, never got wet, just normal use. Worked with the warranty department and got another pairthey are falling apart too. Stitching in the leather is just coming undone. It happened on both pairs.

I have bought this style 3 times and every time the soles came apart which is beyond disappointing. Only would wear to go out. Paid over $160 per pair and they didn't last a year each.

Boots run big that was ok. Love the look and they are super comfortable. Problem is they started falling apart after a couple months. Stitching coming apart and sole detaching

Great boots for dress purposes only! I wore them for one round (18 holes) of disc golf in damp weather and those soles began to fall off immediately. Fake sown soles and the outermost layer just starts separating. This was the second time that I ever wore them. If you take them off with too much effort, the bottom will rip off. Wear them for fancy situations only and be gentle. They look great but do not hold up outdoors so well. Have ShoeGoo and super glue ready. Rip off. Buy different boots. Step it up Timberland.

I loved the way they looked. I never got to try them on or wear them because both pairs I received were scuffed up and ended up receiving a refund instead of another replacement pair.

I'm in the process of buying new boots. I had a pair of these boots & I loved the look! However, the heel fell off the boots. I thought I may have received a bad pair. Looking again at this boot and I'm disappointed to see the problem seems to be systemic and still happening.

Color is WAYYYY off from the pictures even though they're labeled correctly. This is my third pair and the first time having this issue and it looks like I'm not alone. Disappointed in Timberland

Nice looking boot with a sole that falls off far to easily. Should be better quality for this price.

I sent my warranty form because of the con on my list but Timberland denied it. That because they're trying to use other materials. These boots are not full authentic leather. They do look fake and the smell is not genuine leather. More like vinyl. Real disappointed.

The stitching on these boots started breaking and unraveling in less than six months. It started with the tongues. I just bought these in September 2022 and by March 2023 there is a big hole in the top and both tongues are halfway falling off. Terrible quality.

Soles peel off due to defective glue. Known issue and Timberland warranty not honored when claimed.

These were a Christmas present for my husband. He was very very excited to wear them but when he took them out he noticed a HUGE tear on the toy hue area. I did not bother to inspect them as I believed timberland would have their own quality control measures. EXTREMELY disappointing!

My last pair of Earthkeepers lasted me for 12 years. Not these days. I bought a new pair and the tongues separated from the boots after 3 wears. (stitching unraveled) Sitting at a computer desk. The warranty claim process is a nightmare and all they'll do is send you a replacement OR give you store credit if a replacement isn't available. Scammy. Find another brand that isn't trying to cheat the customer. Are Timberlands glory days gone?

This shoe was ordered in the pink full grain. The pearl nor silver emblem was on the shoe. I'm so disappointed. The shoe is absolutely gorgeous, but this is not what I was expecting.

Beautiful boots no question. Purchased directly from Timberland's website. Very first use, one boot loop ripped on the back, very disappointing. Just 4 or 5 wears later while pulling up the tongue, the stitching ripped. Now one tongue is half attached and the other boot has a ripped loop with normal use. These are not work boots for me and they serve a purely aesthetic role so I am not hard on them at all. Not quite the quality I was expecting from Timberland.

Bought in July from Dillard's. By September, the little tab on the tongue of my left boot came unstitched. The leather on the toe box of my right boot is beginning to separate. I have worn these boots at most 7 times. The toe box material wrinkles like a shirt (not quality leather). The rest of the boot has a nice quality leather. Just that one part seems to be selected from the pleather pile. They look like two different pair of boots. For this price, quality control should be better. The photos should speak. I've attached a photo of the left boot toe box for reference.
