Customer Reviews Timberland Earthkeepers® Mt. Maddsen Mid Waterproof

Good

Replacing the same shoe with the same size, they fit the same.

A bit tight in the toe box. Had to return.

I tried this one and the White Ledge Mid Waterproof at the same time and found the latter one much more supportive for my ankle and therefore more comfortable. Returning these Earthkeepers and keeping the White Ledge ones. Otherwise they are a solid boot, color is ok but would get a different color if I were to want these.

Been looking for a good trail boot for a while, at any price; have tried too many but landed on these. They are stylish and the leather is somewhat self-healing with a damp cloth but they do scuff easily. I originally ordered a wide because for the past few years all footwear I've ordered somehow needed to be wide, not the case here. The case here is that the wide was too wide and the medium was a tad too narrow but managable with the expectation of either the boot expanding or the foot getting used to it. In time it appears there was a compromise between the foot and the boot. The boots walk nicely, both fast and slow and take no enemies when walking over rough terrain. The only issue still unresolved is a pressure/rub point that is being stubborn in identifying itself. That point is high ankle on the inside corner of the tongue and it makes traversing slopes painful at times. I believe the rub point is the starting stitch point of the elastic strap that holds and centers the tongue but I haven't figured out a way to prove it yet without doing damage to the area. Also the laces, like all shoes and boots being sold these days, are way too long and they are flat laces so shortening and re-ending them is difficult and you can't use round laces in these boots

Even with 2 pairs of thick wool socks and orthotics these were much too big. In fact, they are the second pair of Timbs that were 2 sizes too large. 10 pairs of tennis shoes and keen boots in 10.5, but Timbs are ridiculously oversized. Can't wear. My feet hurt just looking at them.
