Great boots! Weather resistant, comfortable, stylish, and the traction is great for rain or snow. Also, the heel gives you a good height boost, if you're short. Minimal wear so far. The triangle tongue on the heel isn't attached. Don't really know what it's for, but it has the potential to get caught and torn off. I am very satisfied with them.

Bought these shoes fro my son for Christmas. He put them on and I do not believe he has taken them off since! Great shoes for a student in the currently freezing northeast!

These fit perfectly, are right on the size for money, and had the worn look that I was hoping for. They are comfortable and feel as if I had been wearing them for months!

Bought these shoes for my son for a gift. He is usually a size 13 but he asked for a size 12 after trying them in a store. After using them for a couple of days, he said that they were very comfortable and he is happy with them. They also look very sturdy and should last a long time.

Excellent boots, perfect fit. I didn't even really have to wear them in at all. I thought I was getting some outdoor/work boots, but I wear them every day, everywhere. I wouldn't call it a complaint, as this happens to every shoe, but they can be scratched up... but that only adds to the look.

I ordered them only half a size smaller and they fit perfectly. I am still breaking them in but they are pretty comfortable and look awesome.

Great boot! Runs a bit big, though. I wear a 9.5 running shoe and got these boots in an 8.5. Was a bit sceptical about getting that size at first but they fit great and are extremely comfortable. Took me about a week to break them in, but it's worth it. Highly recommend buying these boots if you can, but they do scuff a bit.

These boots are great for both work and play. Takes a while to break in because they're nice thick leather and an old school sewn on outsole (that you can replace). So at first they feel a little clunky but they get better with time and age well. They're warm in the winter, dry in the rain, and comfy enough to stand in all day. I change out of my work clothes after work but put these back on in the winter when I go out, they're that comfortable. Very versatile boot. And Zappos shipped these to me along with 2 other pairs of shoes the next day by like 3pm even though I ordered them at 7pm the night before! Fastest shipping ever. That's why I have ordered about 6 pairs of shoes and 4 pairs of jeans/shorts from Zappos, they have rare sizes and ship fast.

I've had these boots for nearly a year and they're awesome. I typically wear a size 11 sneaker and knew that timberland typically run large so I got the 10 1/2 but when I got them I decided that they were still to big and I sent them back for the 10 which Zappos quickly sent out. I got the rough Copper cut which looks great, I especially like them because even though they're tims they're not the typical sand color. They break in great and look even better when they have a few scuffs on them and if you ever want to make them look like new you can just rub some wax on them. They are very well made, in my opinion more so then the typical timberlands the sole is sown on rather glued and they just look more rustic. I wear them mostly everyday during the winter and the waterproofing has worked excellently. I wouldn't recommend buying them to do actual work in though, they are a little more casual then that. anyway they are awesome get try them out.

Absolutely beautiful boot that develops a lovely patina. Mine are well over 10 years old as they are the original Earthkeepers. Not waterproof and scuffs easily but overall a long lasting attractive boot.

These are great looking boots that have an adventurous feel. The sole is more lightweight than you would expect from the upper. The contrast stitching is nice. They lace up high which makes them good for fall/winter, along with the waxy finish. They don't breathe very well, and the fit is slightly loose. This is probably so you can wear them with thick socks. I probably wouldn't use them for serious hiking, but they are fine for light trail duty and urban adventures. Overall, a versatile shoe that can get dirty aand clean up well. Wish Timberland made them in a chukka, which would be great considering the lightweight sole with a slight drop.

Love this boot style I wish they had more colors. The only cons are this particular boot style runs a full size too big and the laces are not good quality.

This boot goes with all occasions.
It is stylish, unique and carries both elements of vintage and modern day fashion.
The design especially is very attractive but i recommend more colour variants of the boot.

I bought these as a Christmas gift for my husband. He loves them so much he wore them with an outfit to our new years brunch and they looked so good on him. The material did scratch easily so if you're going for looks these may not hold up#sweepstakes

I ordered a pair of the Original II in Full-Grain Rust. They looked pretty close to the website color. They were a mile too large in my normal size and I decided I liked the lighter, more two-tone look of the more expensive Original. I returned the Rust Original II and ordered a smaller sized Medium Brown Nubuck Original. The box did correctly say Medium Brown Nubuck but they were EXACTLY the same color and leather as the Rust Original II. Very disappointed that the Med Brown Nubuck looks nothing like the pictures. So beware. Also, might as well order the cheaper Original II as they are the same thing!!

The style is different from the rest of the boots that I have bought, they look more "delicate" but with a lot of style. The downside is that they are too big even though I bought them the same size as the others. It would be my only complaint.

I bought these boots in brown before covid and got the black ones this time. The boot is great but was disappointed to see the lower quality laces. May be because they are environmentally friendly :/

Good Quality and appearance. I'm used to wearing Timberland Pro boots for work and wanted a nice boot for going outside of work. I may be spoiled by the anti fatigue features of the pro series but these boots needed insoles to make them comfortable to wear all day. Other than being slightly difficult to put on and take off I'm really happy with these boots.

Love these! They do run about one size large though so take that into consideration. Also cautious with the recommended wax. In the fine print it says not suitable for nubuck leather! Which is exactly what this is.

I had two pairs of boots. I bought them 12 Years ago at the same time, one light brown and the other dark brown-red. One I presented to a friend after 5 years of use. The other one I still have it. Is a very pleasant shoe. The only problem are the soles. Two years after I purchased I changed the soles in both because they just gone. (I put same still but not from Timberland). I was using and I am using for every day use spring and autumn in city environment. Nothing extreme. The light brown is still in use. I am happy. Is a classy boot and I love it.
