Timberland

super timbs
they both keep my feet warm & dry. nothing else to tell really
Actually these things have reminded me about my 'Super' pair a 1o inch guide boot made with Pittards WR100 leather, Gore-Tex and 400grams of thermolite the nasty weather has no chance against those bad boys.
Where pray tell are these made as i'm guessing it won't be the US or Dom Rep?
-
well not sure where they are made
i'll take a look when i go home tonight . . . . much later tonight.

Are you having it as bad as DC right now Monday as that weather i saw on tv over there is crazy right now for this early in the year.
-
nah we didn't get it too bad & most of it is already melted.
thanks for asking
**i hope this winter isn't going to be as rough as last winter

Lucky you! I could say the same for us but to be honest i'd rather we had those cold winters we have had the past three years rather than the rain we normally get, in saying that NY's winters are proper bitter.
-
yep made in china.
-
harshest winter weather
also take me back to the late 80s when those boots were just it. yes i keep things a really long time

Does not surprise me that but my Taiwanese ones do, i've never came across any other Timberland made in Taiwan.

until very recently i was really not that concerned with where my items were manufactured.
i just cared about quality made goods. having a world view is hard work
& i do salute all those that make purchases around human rights issues & the sort.guess it's one of the reasons this thread is sort of empty

I've been clothing obessed from a young age and back then most of my stuff was Italian,French,UK with a bit of US made thrown in. However in 90's most companies began outsourcing to Far Eastern countries and although i bought non Western made stuff then and still occasionally do so quality or lack of as well as just how expensive the item is will make me walk away from it, if paying a few extra £ gets me non sweatshop made goods then i happily stump up the cash.

Bringing this thread back to ask… has anyone had issue with the linings wearing away inside their timberlands? Mine (standard 7-hole, and admittedly beat to shit from working construction for a good few years) have started to wear away around the heel, which exposes a fairly painful join about an inch or two up from the insole. Otherwise, these boots have been great for working, hiking, cycling, playing gigs, going to the gym, walking on a stupid incline on zincalume (seriously great grip...). I just don't wanna give them up!
In other news, hi forum! It's been a while

I wore timberland boots for years, I'd say I went through 5 or 6 pairs and I am pretty sure they all suffered in the exact same way. I found them a great boot, but this used to annoy the hell out of me..!

i have clarks, redwings and $300+ danners but my cheap ass timberlands i got from the nordstroms rack are still my comfiest shoes i own. they have been getting daily wear since october when i started my new job and i accidentally ripped the sole off of the left one cause i always took it off by yanking it off with the other boot but i had my local cobbler nail it back on and they are good to go.
for $90 boots they cant be beat, if only i could get a pair with some icecutter soles i would be so happy
