Timberland PROMen's Pit Boss 6 Inch Steel Safety Toe Industrial Work Boot

Great boots. Lasted 8 years of harsh conditions. . definitely got my money's worth out of them.

The most durable and comfortable work boots I have ever owned. The only reason I have ordered them 6 times is because my job gives me a boot allotment. But every single pair is in great condition still!

Wanted to buy a medium use work boot before all the tariffs hit and face it, unless you want to pay 3 or 4 Benjamin's, what you get is going to be imported. I had a pair of Timberland's from way back but they were a version with the sole that was secured with adhesive only. They are still good boots but the soles have come loose. I plan on fixing them with some shoe cement but in the meantime, wanted another pair for to have alternative and to have when the originals finally do wear out.Overall, it seems like a well made mid-level work boot. Goes on easy and laces up and ties well enough. With my limited use, it's going to take a while to break these in and I will actually have to get some fresh socks to pad me feet some until they do stretch out a bit.The one complaint, and it's a pretty significant one is that, these boots are running quite narrow in the toe area. I ordered an 11 Wide and that size fits me well in any other shoe / boot I have purchased. My toes feel squeezed in these and if I hadn't already worn and scuffed them, I would be tempted to return for a larger size but I am hopeful they will relax over time as I continue to wear them.I considered ordering an 11-1/2 but that would give my heel area too much room to waggle around and I really didn't want that.They are not too heavy and I haven't tested out the waterproof feature yet and probably won't for a while.I will update this review after a few months of wearing them to advise on how it fits after a period of break in.

Updated June 2023:It's been 3 years and 4 months since I got these Timberland Pro boots and I'm happy to report that they are still going strong. I work construction and wear them almost every day. I use Odor Eaters work boot insoles which I change every 3 months + another soft foam insole + the original insole and they are very comfortable. I got the boot a half size larger so it fits well with the extra insoles and I've never had blisters even when roofing. Roofing can be torture to your feet (and boots) because you are working on a slope so there are constant lateral forces on the bottoms of your feet.While the soles have worn some they are by no means worn out. The leather is still in very good shape other than a gouge on the toe of the right boot. It's just cosmetic as no water gets in through it. The stitching is top notch no rips or pulled out stitches. I figure that I'll get another 3 years or more from these boots.I did have a lace break and in a pinch I superglued it. I planned on getting new laces but haven't because I'm cheap and lace works fine. Superglue also works good on shoelace tips that are fraying.I treated the boots once with Never Wet for boots. I was expecting that water would bead up and roll off "like water off a ducks back", but it didn't really bead up although water doesn't really soak in.I would also like to note that I previously purchased a pair of these boots that were slightly too small. I wore them for a while but a couple of times after jamming my toes jumping down I got these a half size bigger. So I tossed them in the garage and planned to give them to Goodwill. Of course I forgot until about a year ago when I ran across them all dusty in the garage. Oddly the heals had deteriorated and were soft and crumbly. Not the bottom sole, just the foamy rubber rubber above it. I have read many reviews about this being a problem with Timberline boots. But this appears that Timberline has remedied the problem as my current pair has lasted a long time.Older review: Got a good deal on the through Amazon Warehouse. The description said there were minor blemishes but I couldn't find any. I'd just seen a pair someone was selling on Craigslist for $80 in slightly used condition. I paid $60 for these and they are new. They look new, smell new, and fit great. Some days I get home burned out and I've fallen asleep with these on. Just like a pair of slippers! Well okay that may be a little excessive. Just call it the Trump effect... The boots are great though no bovine doo key here... umm well I gotta watch what I say or I get an email from Amazon saying I was bad and violated someone in their department that looks for violations. They should put a list out of the words they allow cuz really it wasn't that bad. Did I mention the boots are great?
