Customer Reviews Timberland Chocorua Trail with GORE-TEX®

After reading the reviews, I was sure that these boots were for me. But I was wrong. I work in an outdoor setting where I am standing/moving all day and after wearing them for about two months, I feel like my arches are falling. While they were great because they felt like they didn't need to be broken in, the toe box is really wide, so the front half of my foot slides around even when I wear thicker socks. Likewise, I can't get them to tie tight enough to prevent my heel from sliding around. The shoe is the correct size (a half size smaller and my toes would be crunched up), so my heel doesn't slip around, my entire foot just slides around. I think I'm going back to the Timberland Pro.

I purchased a set of these boots almost exactly a year ago, they were very comfortable, and best of all the liner in the boot worked. My feet never, never, got wet. I wear my boots to work outdoors every day. Some people buy these things for fashion or whatever, but I search for good boots to keep my feet dry. I have purchased Keen, Vasque, Merrells, you name it. I thought I found the best boot. I have wide feet and I think I tear the liner out in those brands that don't offer EE. I was shocked when I put the new boots on. When I picked them up I thought they looked smaller, and when I put them on they were. They were much narrower, I even compared the soles to each other and the actual soles were about 1/4" narrower. I took my insole out of my old pair, and put in the new, hoping it would help, but my toe smashed into the toe of the boot. I can't even wear these to hope that they would stretch out. They hurt. From the most comfortable fit to boots that don't fit at all in one year. Maybe just a mistake, but very disappointed. I may try another set to see if it was just a mis-sized boot.

My only & last pair of Timberlands are 20 years old. These seemed 1/2 size too short. There was no support, especially in the ball of the foot. Thanks Zappos for the quick delivery!

This is my "go to" winter boot and hiking boot. It's my third pair and they are consistently comfortable and supportive.

This is my third pair of these Timberland boots. I wear them for day hiking and also for snowshoeing in winter. They are a wonderful basic hiking boot.
