Men's 26011 Direct Attach 8" Soft-Toe

UPDATE 12/13/23: I'll keep my review 5 stars, These boots are very well made, but, I experienced an issue requiring me to return these: On day 3 of wearing these, I noticed rubbing and discomfort on my left inside ankle bone. I tried over the next few days to wear these very loosely tied to minimize pressure on the ankle, but, it did not help. On day 5 of wearing these, I took a closer look at the left boot and compared it to my right boot. The issue became clear.....the left boot tongue which folds over into a "V" when the boots are laced, has a slightly larger/wider section of leather there than on the right boot. For me and my left foot ankle bone, that slightly longer length was enough to rub that creased fold of leather right on top of my left inside ankle area. The leather on each side of the tongues is not lined at all like some boots, so the folded crease of leather at points of contact on the ankle is not softened there. I have another pair of work-boots which do have a soft liner across the entire tongue including both side and no issues with that boot. For many, they'd never notice this....and the boots would work fine. for me, and my ankle, it would not work. I chose not to reorder quite yet and will return these and then decide how to proceed to shop for another boot. I still recommend this brand and this specific boot since for most everyone, hopefully they won't experience the "unique" issue that I had! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I needed a work-boot for Winter use around the house and I did not want a cheap pair. I'm familiar with the Timberland brand and because my wife owns another style of Timerlands and loves them, decided I'd go with this brand only. I found this exact same boot at a local Shoe Store, but, it was over $55 more than at Amazon. I ordered these from Amazon in size 10, regular width. These boots, fit perfectly to my size and even as new and stiff as they were until getting broken in, were extremely conformable right out of the box. I've had boots in years past that were a challenge to wear while breaking in and sore ankles seemed inevitable until the boots broke in after a few or more weeks of use. These Timberlands did not require any break-in. I walked my dogs for a few miles in them the first day and it felt like I'd been wearing them for months. The construction of these boots is awesome. Thick leather, exact and precise stitching everywhere and a strong, thick sole with a tread pattern sure to grip icy snow and slush with no worries about slipping. These boots are not featherweights, but, not bad in weight at all and due to the quality of materials plus being insulated, a little extra weight here means you are buying a very solidly made boot. Absolutely delighted with these and for our snowy Vermont Winters, they are going to be my go to primary go-to boots for sure. Worth the price and these high quality boots are priced far less at Amazon than anywhere here locally. 5 Stars all around and well deserved!

Ok, haven't had these boots for long but so far, SO FAR I'm impressed. I've been through 4 pairs of boots trying to find something just right for Harley riding, and I seem to have finally found the right pair. I normally wear an 11EE but have found all the other boots I've tried, including alternate model Timberlands, have been way too wide in that size, so I got a standard size 11 and they're perfect, wide enough for my flat feet but not so wide that my foot is moving all over or that I look as if pontoons have been strapped to the ends of my legs. The tread is deep and aggressive, just right to minimize slipping on gravel while feet-down on the bike, but not so high that I had to adjust the toe shifter to fit the boot underneath. They slip on decently, there is no pull-strap on the back which would have been a nice feature, but so far I haven't really missed it as I've pulled the boots on, YMMV. The interior sole comfort is good, medium cushy; not Saucony sneakers but not stiff and hard either, I might add a gel insole eventually. As for the waterproof aspect that others have complained about, I have no idea, I don't use these boots as outdoor workers, only for riding the bike. Overall I think this a really nice boot especially for the price point, you get an aggressive sole, quality leather, and apparent durability. The only thing I would change is the length of the laces, I couldn't get the included laces through all the eyelets with enough spare length to tie them.

To clear up 2 things: -400g insulation in 80F+ weather?(I couldn’t read it I guess:) - absolutely, no problem BUT with moisture wicking socks; cheap socks and I’ll get some sweat spots on them! - I wouldn’t kick 100lb objects with them, toes or heels, as I sometimes do; direct attach doesn’t inspire confidence (however, they appear to be shoegooable:) easily, maybe I should?) To continue w/“negatives”: - short laces for 8 eyelets; somebody do something about that or I’ll just have them sewn together&turn them into cowboy pull/ups:) - not gravel friendly, few small cuts on the surface of the outsole lugs (huge lugs, btw); get stuck in them daily + mud (and horse poop) requiring daily spraying of outsoles w/water hose on high - outsoles are thick and the boots stretch; I’d go for a full size down to preserve stability Now the good stuff:) - cushy, comfy, bulky, great uppers, awesome ankle support especially when tightened! You know you’re wearing tall boots not sneakers:) - outsoles showing almost no signs of wear, up to 30hrs/week of concrete, gravel, dirt&horse poop:) - appear to be shoegooable:) forever, down the road that is, now it’s still perfect; every single layer - uppers will last forever, shoegooed to the midsole, shoegooed:) to the outsole which will last forever! (DISCLAIMER: just watched the Rose Anvil guy cut them in half; not a pretty sight as the rubber outsoles are thin&the rest is foam! Once thin layer’s gone&it’s the garbage time unfortunately) Care provided: Please see my posts on Obeanuf hd lp and Trident pure silicone grease if interested! I suggest to be even more conservative than Frank Rizzo:) described if using those, but do recommend them. 5 month UPDATE - worn about 24hrs/week I couldn’t be happier! Big fan of their direct injection molding, no stitching or glue, yet no sign of any separation! Tough leather - I’m sure obeanuf once a month helps; tough outsoles - no wear&tear (never been worn on asphalt though) Thick outsoles make me walk properly, maybe once a week do I scrape the surface I’m walking on! It’s a work boot for sure!

While my days of working construction are long over, I still handle near- constant home renovation and landscaping projects around my 1850s Victorian house in the evenings and weekends. I bought this new pair of PRO Timberlands, because I wanted (3) things; a boot with an 8inch shaft, padded collar to save my calves getting chewed up, and a comfort sole for my aging, damaged knees. This boot fits that bill PERFECTLY. Build construction is consistent with all timberland boots, and while they are listed as "waterproof," I'm no fool seeing all that stitching and am only looking for water resistant. Instantly comfortable and feel like waking in marsh mellows, which my knees really appreciate. I would have given them a 5 star rating but my guess is that time will not be kind to those soft, thick soles, and I would have dearly loved for them to be available in steel toe, which they are not. Are they the best boot for a professional construction worker or contractor... hell no, but for a weekend warrior, these boots will last you years. My last pair went 12yrs before the soles finally split open.

Lasted 3 years. Realistically, I should have replaced them at 2.5 years in. Could be warmer in the toes during winter. They’re good boots though.

these boots are outstanding! came really quick. they were exactly as described. their customer service dept. is excellent. they fit perfect, although left boot felt somewhat too narrow at first, but after short "break-in" time (3-4 days) that left boot broke in & now fits like a glove. the cusion pad on top (of 8 inch height) is very comfortable when bending the boots sharply. timb.s seem sometimes to be 1 to 1.5 sizes too big. maybe ok w/extra thick socks, but better to try order 1 to 1.5 sizes smaller than normal boot you take, (every one's foot diff. though). ramsey co. seems to work awesome to resolve any customer issue, and fast at that. really comfortable from toe to 8 inch top. totally waterfproof, same quality come to expect from timberland. ramsey co. is about the best online boot co. i've dealt with over quite some time. get 'em there, p.savadel512012. P.S., newark, DE. isn't usually this cold and for so many days/evenings, but 3 nights ago dropped to 26 degress (F), 2 nights ago to 22 degrees (F), & last night dropped to 16 degrees, each unreal cold day/night, my feet were the only thing warm on me. my fingers felt like they were to fall off, but boots kept my feet so warm, they didn't feel the sub-freezing temps at all. everything you need for a great boot, forgot to mention, water just literally beaded & rolled off the boots, very cool, psavadel512012

My husband wears boots daily. His old Cabela's pair was over 10 years old and finally wearing out. He was looking for a really good tread, 8 inches high, insulated, and this product fit the bill. Also, Timberland was a brand we had heard of before. I ordered size 11.5 as that was what his current boot was. As soon as I ordered them, hubby worried they would be too narrow as he often wears a wide width in other shoes. The first day he wore them, he was on his feet for 11 hours. They were not too narrow for him, and he said they were really comfortable all day. After three weeks of daily wear, he still really loves them! I know they won't last 10 years, but I hope they have a good, long life in them.

Very nice wear them all day great ankle support

Great Boot love the 8 inch high Timberland boot. But why in the %@&(@)^ world would you send 1 lace longer than the other. FFS GRRRRRRRR

Me gustó todo... a tres meses de estar usándolas, creo que es una gran bota, resistente, buenos acabados, cómoda y muy bonitas. Quizás, sólo quizás medio número abajo me habría gustado más, eso por un mero gusto, ya que debido a un par de esguinces que he tenido, prefiero que este tipo de calzado me quede bien ajustado, de ahí en más, es perfecto. Trabajo en el campo, y creo que les doy uso rudo, y al momento han respondido. Buscaba más que nada, una bota resistente, pero además resultan estar muy bonitas, lástima que no las pueda lucir porque siempre las traigo llenas de polvo, lodo y agua. Trabajo muy bien con ellas, si no todo el día, buena parte de él, y no me canso de traerlas. Es un producto 100% recomendable.

besten schuhe die ich für arbeit jeh hatte danke

Muy buen producto y se siente muy cómodo

First I bought the six inch boots and wore them everyday for a year and they have been reliable, consistently waterproof and durable for my shifts at work in a package delivery warehouse as well as everywhere else I go in daily life, so when I needed a new pair of winter weather boots, I decided to buy the 8 inch version of this boot, and I already know that I won't be disappointed. These are well made, and very nice looking boots that are suitable for all weather conditions.
