 3rd pair! The perfect hunting, chore, hiking, winter all around boot.
This is my third purchase over the years, love em. I have wider feet and prefer a man's boot to a woman's there is enough room for my favorite alpaca sock and my feet do not sweat in them. I have worn these boots in every setting possible for a hiking boot, wet to dry and these babies are rugged and waterproof. I honestly cannot tell you one negative thing, comfy from the get-go, strong and sturdy. No separation in the sole, no tears, I have worn the laces out after a time and worn the leather through to cracking after a year or more, but they held up longer than any other boot I have owned. I have multiple pairs, using the newest for dressier occasions like school or travel and the others in the field or muck. Buy 2 save yourself the hassle of shoe shopping.

Great Boots but Air Tight
These boots fit great with enough space for heavy, winter socks. They are water tight up to 3-4".
They are best for short term usage because they are So water tight that they is almost no ventilation and within a couple hours my feet are overly hot and sweating. Great for riding my ATV and going through mud and water. My feet stay dry (other than sweating) even through the occasional puddle and mud pit...
They are comfortable for walking. They are easy to clean and maintain so I'm sure that these boots will last for many years.
They seem like they would be great for the snow however I don't know how warm they'll be in frigid Maine weather. You and I will soon find out!

Expensive but comfortable
As stated the price is a little on the high side but the comfort for me is worth it. I have both plantar fasciitis and heel spurs in both feet, ive had 2 surgeries on on foot so far with zero relief. I have always tried shoes out for a week and end up replacing the insoles with perscription ones but... 4 months of heavy daily use and I still have the timberland insoles in mine. Don't think you can go pain free, my feet do still hurt but not nearly as much and normal insoles and honestly it's still less than my perscription ones. If you feet hurt maybe try a wide shoe to start, I couldn't believe how much of a difference that made for me but then have good insoles ontop of that and you will be able to make it through your days alot easier.

One of the best out of the box comfortable everyday boots I've ever found.
As the title states, These boots are amazingly comfortable out of the box with minimal breaking in needed. I bought two pairs of these at a payless shoe store 20 years ago, and have been buying them ever since for an everyday comfortable around town pair of boots. Are there higher quality boots out there, of course.. but at 80 bucks give or take a pair, I don't worry about damaging them or get salty when I tear a hole in a pair out hiking like I would with a 400-600$ pair of custom boots.. I have fairly big wide feet and wear thick boot socks so I get the size 12 wide and they fit like a glove every time. If you're in the market, I definitely recommend trying a pair.

What to expect at 2 years daily use
I am a 55 year old male 180 lbs and used these a avg of 5 days a week for 2 years. In the first 6 months the laces needed replaced at 1 year the soles begin to separate on the toe and pivot point just behind you toe's. They did stay water proof for about 6-9 months once the sole started to separate that was the end of the water proof features. The upper leather is still going strong. The environment I worked in had exposure to allot of oils and water IE automotive mechanic being in that field I was on them all day. I did install insoles liners at 3 months. All in all I am happy with them so I purchased a second pair when I saw them on sale I think most people will get 300- 500 days of normal use out of them without issues

The Timberland Men's White Ledge Mid Waterproof Hiking Boot are High Quality!
I normally wear a size 8 in boots and shoes, but I bought a size 8.5 to give me a little more room for a double cushion Dr. Sholls insert. I bought Sofsole Mink Oil while it is so reasonable from Amazon and totally covered both boots. We are on a Farm, so boots take a beating as do shoes. The Mink Oil softens the leather and makes the boots feel like they are glove leather. It also protects you further from water and moisture.
The Sofesole is on sale now for 3 tubs of 3.5 ounces for about $21.00. That is a bargain and the payoff is huge. I Highly recommend this boot to anyone who wants a comfortable waterproof boot. The test of time will tell the story of whether they hold up around the soles and do not separate, but I bought the Gorilla clear glue to fix that in case it happens. So far; I give them a 10+ AAAAAA rating.
We apply the Mink Oil to all of our leather boots and shoes.

 I like them a lot
They seemed a little tight when I first put them on but, after a few days, they've loosened up. Did a 5 mile hike up a hill then, coming down, my feet slipped in them a bit but, the upper part is still pretty stiff, making cinching the strings tighter difficult. Hope that makes sense. All that is normal with new shoes/boots. I'm pretty sure, with some wear on them, I'll be able to draw the strings tighter and they'll be perfect for me. I should mention, the socks I was wearing were thin. I'll wear thicker ones next time. They're also pretty light weight and I think they're some of the better looking boots out there. I'm very happy with the purchase.
