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

Used infrequently. The tops still look great but the sole fell off.

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

The sole unglued from the leather at 6 months of everyday use.

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.

For some reason there are two seems in the leather and a bump on the the interior of the boot right where the back on your heel meets your ankle. The skin rubbed off the back of my foot after 2 miles. This looks great and feels good but it's an odd place for the construction of the boot.

I am writing this review with tears in my eyes. I've dreamed about these boots for so long. And I'm disappointed. Having carried them for one season, I can't believe my eyes, they are cracked. Cracked at the bend. Just one season. I didn't think it was possible. Now I need new shoes, because there is a hole and water will penetrate. The backdrop is lost inside(
I stick a photo because it's hard to believe.
I cannot recommend waterproof Timberland(

I ordered the RED BROWN BURNISHED (polished leather boot) as above but received a MEDIUM BROWN NUBUCK (oily nubuck boot) with the same style# on the inside label.
I then spoke to 2 cust.serv.agents and both insisted it was the same shoe but the lighting in the studio was bright when the pics were taken. So why also different names then?
I am TERRIBLY disappointed. Won't buy Timberland again!!!

Disappointed, pictures don't match the color of the boot. Looks faded and rugged but that's not the case. Over priced, missed out the pair that was on sale for $60 cheaper and now it's out of stock and not being sold. The boots would have looked exactly the same but if I would've know that in the first place instead of being deceived by false advertising pictures. Then timberland customer service was no help. I will be returning them.

Ordered two color of wide fit, comparing them both to a wide fit pair I own now, one was the same width, this color was obviously more narrow.

This boot might be comfortable and durable and everything else it solicits to be, but I can't get passed the color inaccuracy.

Tongue of boot ripped in half from the stitching coming apart after the 3rd time putting the boot on. Worst pair of timberland boots ive ever owned. Not worth the money
