Never wear boots except during NS days...but...if get Timberland boots walk around cities..will feet get tired easily?

Thinking of getting a pair after years of wearing sneakers..

Timberland shoes are really crap quality. Got a lot of other stuff out there that cost the same price or just slightly more but can literally last life time. Just need to go to shukey and resole over and over again. Dr martens is even worse crap quality cos it costs more than timberland. Whether u buy their made in viet or their more expensive made in uk one also not worth it

Yes. Those are the custom ones. Like if you go to raffles city and choose the colour of each part.

I wear caterpillar safety shoes bought from bata. 300 per pair and it has Lasted me three years. Saved my foot from accidental kicking many times. Suppose to sayang it with leather conditioners but didnt. It Still looks real good lol. Really Worth every dollar spent even though everyone called me crazy for spending 300 on safety shoes

Don't bother with the full hiking boots unless you don't sweat, don't mind the weight and don't mind the constant trouble of putting them on or taking them off.

Get a dress boot. Those typically have a zip on the inner ankle side for comfort and convenience

Must get the one with breathable leather.

I wear boots after i need to work in the field/site sometimes, and my old shoes tend to soak up moisture.

I start to wear boots due to lower back n leg pain, i put insole inside to support.

Timberland boots i havr not so good experience with the discount item, soles coming off due to dried glue. But was few years ago. Went to sew them tgt.

If you go through metal detector a lot, go for the composite rather than steel toe.
