There were a few of them when Timberland really was a TIMBERLAND made in New Hampshire. Incredible fit and comfort. Took twenty years! These are lame fakes. They look almost artificial. The laces seem to fit a $25 shoe. GARBAGE. Understand that the laces are part of the boot. They continue around the ankle and back. I doubt they will survive the harsh conditions that this type of shoe is designed for. The size is even worse. The middle one is actually ultra narrow. Obviously a thicker sock could be worn with it instead of dress socks. Timberland has gone the route of profit over ease of use and BIG TIME shows it. Some retailers have the audacity to ask $129. This is madness. Not crazy S. Jobs.
