text: I way over shopped for my boots but am very happy with what I finally purchased. I was really looking for a tactical type of boot with a composite toe but everything I found just didn't fit properly. I found these boots in a Work N Gear store and just loved the fit( I did go a half size smaller then normal). The boots there were brown and I really wanted black, so I found these on Amazon in the color and features I wanted and $50 less then in the store. Very little break in needed, very comfortable.<br />Less then 3 months old and the lace eyelets are breaking and Amazon wont return them. Save your money!! Amazon redeemed themselves and are shipping me new boots but I still question Timberlands quality.
