Timberland Earthkeepers Chelsea

Men's Footwear > WalkingRated: ***** by 3 reviews.

Altrec (Fall 2008)

The inspiration behind our new Earthkeepers boot is borne out of our desire to create an original, outdoor-tested boot with a smaller environmental footprint than other boots may have. Here they are - Timberland durability and lightweight versatility - the lining is made of recycled materials, the outsole is made with recycled rubber, the canvas uppers are organic and the whole boot is waterproof. Imported.

Features:

  • Airport friendly nylon shank provides support, stability and shock dispersion and should not set off metal detectors
  • Canvas panel crafted with organic cotton which is grown on certified organic fields without pesticides, artificial fertilizers and herbicides, just as strong as conventional cotton canvas but with less impact to the environment
  • Incredibly durable, rubber lug outsole made with 30% recycled rubber
  • Leather covered, removable, Smart Comfort system multi-density footbed provides support and comfort, regardless of whether you are walking or standing
  • Leather hangtag can be used as a wristband
  • Leather rand for extra protection around the sides
  • Moisture wicking textile lining, 70% made from recycled material, keep feet dry and comfortable
  • Please Note: These boots run a bit large. We recommend you select a size that is a half a size lower than you normally wear
  • Premium, full-grain, waterproof leather for comfort, durability and abrasion resistance
  • Seam-sealed waterproof construction keep feet dry in any weather
  • Waterproof

Khaki version. Pretty much perfect except: The three-layer sole is a major drawback in that the top layer, which is stitched to the body, is made of a weak cardboard like material which is bound to saturate with water and then seep via capillary action under the footbed. It's really chintzy, papery stuff that arrives "burnished", but has almost no mass. The pros: buttery soft upper, really comfy fit but a tad snug along the large-toe metacarpal which is one of the two pressure-points keeping the boot on (the other being the whole of the heel which was expertly done, equally distributed), rather light-weight, looks great. Too bad about that feature I described which makes this a "kitchen shoe", which is not what I nor the designers probably had in mind for this "Earthkeeper". Get some water-proofer for the uppers; that softness is a sponge for water.

My boyfriend tried this boot in brown nubuck. He normally wears a size 10-1/2, but he ordered size 11. It was way too big for him. I tried to get him to order a smaller size because the boot was really cute on him, but he couldn\'t decide how much smaller to order. He returned them. He said they had a little arch support, but an orthotic might be needed.
