I got these boots in medium brown and I absolutely love them. They look fantastic both with skinny pants and with casual skirts/dresses. The medium brown color looks great with black. I highly recommend these boots.

I have worn these boots now for two days and so far I love them. I normally buy boots with heels but decided to buy something that would be easier to walk in and wear my jeans in. I normally wear a size 7½ but chose to go with size 8. They are not overly big but roomy enough to wear heavier socks if I choose.

My Christmas present early! These are exactly what I was hoping for: stylish, quality leather, comfortable all around, including Timberland's signature sole... I could walk in these for hours! I am normally an 8.5, but based on the reviews, I also ordered size 9. I ended up keeping my normal size with thin socks, as the half-size up would not stay on my heel.

I am thrilled with these boots! They are stylish, comfortable, and of excellent quality. My only regret is that I didn't but them sooner. I will enjoy these versatile boots for a very long time!

Love these boots! I've gotten compliments when I wear them. I wanted a boot that was stylish and comfortable and this pair is perfect. The toe area is roomy which is critical for me. I have narrow heels and was concerned about fit but with a pair of socks my heel fit great, no slippage. The upper part of the boot is of average width even with the adjustable ability. The first day I wore these I traveled West coast to the East, wore them over 20 hours with no problems. I highly recommend them!

Love, love, LOVE! I'm a runner with a thicker calf and it's hard to find a tall boot that will fit. These are perfect with skinny jeans or leggings. I walked all over San Francisco in these with no blisters or pain. Recommend!

I ordered a 7½W, and I could only find this particular size on Zappos (Timberland does npt sell a wide version on its website, which was a bummer because they were having a holiday sale.) They are still too narrow because after I have worn them a while my feet ache, but I am keeping them because the shaft is nice and narrow. I could go even narrower, that is how skinny my legs are. Why do wide boots usually mean wide shafts? That is so unfair. The middle leather is a little too floppy. The foot area is much thicker and so digs in a bit as I walk. But they look stylish.

I honestly do not have enough good things to say about these. They're gorgeous, they hold up well to winter abuse, they're comfy, and did I mention gorgeous? I got the medium brown and the chocolate brown. I ended up returning the darker one because it was too boring. The heel is just the right height to make you feel beautiful, but not fear losing your balance to a strong gust of wind. Seriously, these are my favorite boots. Two tiny complaints: 1 - The buckle sometimes clicks while you walk. 2 - Sometimes when I cross my legs, the little peg for the adjustment strap stabs my leg uncomfortably. Seriously, why haven't you bought these boots yet?

These boots are gorgeous! Excellent quality, well worth the money. Purchased these for my 18 year old daughter while in college. She loves them!

I ordered these boots for my 12-year-old because they last for enough years to make the price worthwhile, and they are comfortable for walking and good for cold weather. That said, these are incredibly narrow through the calf, and have a snug fit. They fit her (barely) but she has the calf of a normal 12-year-old! We also went up a full size from that of her sneakers. If I were Timberland, I would make the ankle and calf slightly less tapered and snug and a little straighter.

This is a beautiful boot, I got it in black. I ordered my normal size 8 and and 8.5 since many reviewers were recommending to size up, but the 8 is a perfect fit. (I so appreciate zappos making returns so easy!! I hate to take advantage of their awesome policy so often, but this is the only way I can see and try on most of these styles! No store has a tenth the selection of zappos) Anyway, no problem with the fit anywhere and they look super sharp over skinny jeans. I guess if fall has to come, at least I'm ready with these!

Most awesome boots ever! Major compliments everytime I wear them and they go with so many outfits. Very comfortable boot and wide enough to wear a thick boot sock.

LOVE these boots! They were a little more rugged looking that I expected, but I fell in love with them when I opened the box. They are super comfy, I can wear them all day when out sight seeing, and then pair them later with a dress for a nice funky edge. Highly recommend!

These boots are quite beautiful and work well with casual to moderately dressy outfits. The boot is well made with high-quality materials, too. Like many of the other reviewers, I found that the top inch or so of the shaft zipped up tight, but it's not a problem for comfort. I have high arches and a prominent bone on the top of my foot (what is it called? Ha!) which can ache if I wear the boots for long hours.

I love these boots. They look awesome on - just what I wanted to go with jeans or a skirt and not be too dress, just understated casual. The upper part (calf) is a bit snug so be aware of that. I have ordered wide calf in the past - these are not but fit...barely. I really like them though and I can zip them up - they are just snug.

These boots are amazing! Perfect for the slushy Vermont sidewalks. Waterproof, good grip...not to mention how gorgeous they are. My absolute favorite. The medium brown is a really great color, I returned the dark brown.

LOVE these boots! I get compliments on them every time I wear them. One word of caution, the tops are a bit tight on the calves (and I have normal sized calves--not super tiny, but not super buff!). I can still wear them, but with my jeans they can be a bit tight.

Very happy with these boots. They were true to size for me (I wear a 9 1/2) and had no problem breaking them in. It only took 2 wears and even then it was no big deal, nothing rubbing on the usual spots (I have one foot wider than the other with a bone that protrudes and can be a sore spot when wearing certain shoes) and no sore feet. I find them to be so comfortable I don't even want to take them off at the end of the day. They also look good too.

These boots are made of sturdy leather and they are definitely attractive. I will probably be able to wear them through at least next winter. Just a warning, though, they are a little on the narrow side. You probably won't be able to wear thick socks with them unless you have narrow feet. My feet are slightly on the wide side so I bought sz 9 in wide. They fit, but there's not much extra room.

These are awesome boots. The fit is great and the adjustable calf really works for me as I have skinny calves. I bought these as I live in snow country and need something stylish but with an outdoor sole. These totally fit the bill!

I love these boots! They are a beautiful color and the suede and leather two tone adds a unique look to them. I wear 7 1/2 and they fit great with fleece tights or thin socks. I tried them on with a pair of thicker socks and they were a little snug.

Gorgeous boots! Comfy as well. Order your normal size ladies. I was unsure after reading about how they run narrow so I got a pair of 8.5 wide. But they turned out to be a little too much. And the 9 medium don't work neither after I tried on a pair in the store. So I got my normal Timberland size which is 8.5 medium and they felt pretty tight at the beginning. So it did take some guts to walk out of the door with them but trusting in Timberland's quality made it easier. They stretched out in less than 2 hours of wearing. Now my feet can't be happier. It is a great feature that Timberland boots mould around your feet. So a little tight at the beginning should be considered a good thing. Just be patient and watch how they soften up. It's like magic! Also, the somewhat slightly tight upper shaft softens and stretches too, pretty quickly. Love them!

These are really cute boots. Very comfortable! I have really thin calves and these are a little loose, but they can be tightened and loosened with the strap at the top. These are great with jeans - probably best in a casual setting. I wear them constantly!
