User Reviews
I now have 3 deferent pairs of Timberline shoes. These are the best shoes I have ever worn at work. The hard toe keeps accidents from dropping items on toes. Very comfortable, and the end of the day I really don't want to take them off. Well worth the price.
Shoes are comfortable and stylish. Shoes are slippery on finished concrete floor
Great shoes. My foot feels protected all over especially the top of the foot which seems to be hard to find. Great traction. True to size.
If you like Timberland Pro Boots but are looking for a shoe these are PERFECT! They have the same look and feel as the boots, and the sizes fit the same as well.
I have been looking for a pair of work shoes like this for a while. These have been a welcome surprise. Good and sturdy and comfortable. Not that light but I’m good with it.
Was a timberland pro fan but had one pair for less than a month, shoes started squeaking and parts of shoe tearing. Returned for new pair and the new pair is squeaking already. Shoes are comfortable but not durable. Would skip these.
I like it in general
This was one of the best composite toe shoes I have ever had. No break in and super comfy.
