Timberland PROMen's Slip-On Shoe

Shoes are a gamble even being able to try them on. The good selection of sizes encouraged me to try ordering these, and it ended up being a solid choice. I normally wear a 1/2-size smaller, but did not want to end up with a too small shoe. They are slightly big, but with a running sock instead of a dress sock they are fine.Travelling overseas I wore these on the trip there, extra convenience at security since they slip on and off. The first day they were on my feet 16 hours straight including jaunts around a mine. They were so comfortable I almost forgot I had new shoes on were it not for their standout appearance (no scuffs etc.). They are also not too bulky as safety shoes go, so I can still fit them in my small carryon suitcase. They also serve sytlishly as a business-casual shoe, and it'd be hard to tell they are actually safety shoes.The only drawback: a little hard to get on and off for a slip-on, but this is easing with use and will probably cease to be an issue at all.

These shoes are well-made, but they run a little bit small so if you are a 10 1/2, I suggest you get a 11

Good slip on shoe for folks who need safety toe protection. Leather is a tad stiff so break in period can take a bit, but its not too bad. Comfortable in-sole and true to size- though I found the area around the ankle to rub on my ankle a bit- a bit annoying but I will add a heel cushion to solve it. All around good shoe- though they do scuff easy if appearance matters to you, these will require a bit more care.

I have very picky feet and my leg begins to hurt if I wear a pair of shoes that don't have great support. This has not been an issue with these shoes. The soles are big and thick and provide a lot of support. The opening that you stick your feet into that a lot of people have been complaining about is pretty stiff when you get it, but within a week it gets loosened up. I think they look great, I got them for work but I wear them about all the time during the evenings/weekends.Only cons are they do scuff up very easy, i've had mine for only a month and i've included a picture of what they look like. I work in a pharma manufacturing facility and we're mostly just in labs, water/boiler rooms and occasionally interstitials and walkable ceilings but we don't work in many dirty areas, but they already look kinda beat up - just a month in. I'm sure though there is something I could buy to make them look nice again though so it's not a dealbreaker, these shoes are just too comfortable for that to impact my score.These are steel toes. It doesn't really say it clearly in the descriptions - it just keeps repeating "Titan safety toe". I found this out at the airport, which isn't that big a deal they're pretty easy to slip on and off but it's worth noting.

Update 07/24/2020. I have now been wearing this model of shoe for 8 years. The first pair finally wore out after 5 years, wearing every day, including weekends. Basically, it was just looking beat up and the sole worn down to point where slip resistance grooves were growing thin, but functionally shoes were still together. Second pair still look great after 3 years now. Just bought a third pair for when I need them. These are the best safety shoes for people who split time between office and workshop. Super comfortable, look nice, and wear like iron. I recommend these shoes to everyone I work with. Timberland should pay me commission!Original review from 2013: "I am also an engineer (actually Safety engineer) who spends part time in office and then manufacturing. Stylish enough for office, solid enough for heavy work. Great slip on. Incredibly comfortable....in fact I think its the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn, of any kind. I wear these on weekends I like them so much. Had these for a year now and they look and wear well, very tough but pliable leather. I wear them every day. Just bought a second pair as they run a bit large (about a half size) so going to try one size smaller as they have stretched just a little over time. Best overall safety shoe anywhere I have found that's just as nice in the office. I've tried many over the years..most are harder leather and have to break in. These are just right out of the box.

I don’t know what it is about these shoes, but the heel/sole is really tall and I have rolled my ankle 3 or 4 times now while wearing them. I had a pair of almost identical shoes from a different brand, didn’t have such a tall heel, but they were discontinued for some reason. Don’t get me wrong, These shoes are comfortable and seem solid and well made, but I just keep rolling my dang ankle in em… and yes, I’ve been wearing shoes and walking my entire life, never broken a leg or ankle, and I’ve never rolled the same ankle so many times in a short period of time as I have in these 2 or 3 week old shoes. When I put them on, it’s a noticeable lift up. I think they can knock half an inch off the soles and heels of these shoes and have a more stable product. Or make the soles a bit wider and sticking out past the shoe a few millimeters might help as well.

Tried to change it up in my husband for his birthday and get him a different pair of work shoes. After a few weeks He asked if I could buy him the ones he had before . They are comfortable , nice color, easy to clean , light weight.

In the first hour of wearing these boots my ankles and Achilles tendons were destroyed. I had blisters and was in so much pain I could barely walk. I put a claim in for a return or replacement with Amazon and timberland but somehow there's no record of it. I already returned the boots through UPS, like they told me to do. I had to order another pair of timberland boots that I knew were comfortable because I have to wear them for work but now it's looking like I'm getting screwed for the first boots I already returned.
