Timberland PRO's Direct Attach 8" Steel Toe - These are by far one of the MOST COMFORTABLE boots I've ever owned. They are perfect! I have owned quite a few of these pairs of boots over the last 20+ years! They never disappoint and last forever! I get loads of compliments on these boots all the time! Your feet will love you for buying these boots for them. Trust Me! Every time I put them on, I immediately think of how comfortable they are! You'll love them, plus they're Steel Toe! Safety in mind! The #1 Work Boot by far! They also look great on when you’re doing whatever else it is that you wanna do. On top of that, Zappos offers the best prices and their shipping is unmatched anywhere!!! :)

An excellent quality boot. I prefer 8" boots, and I am required to wear steel toe for work, and once I saw a Timberland in this style, I had to buy it. They resemble combat boots I wore in the Marine Corps which is what drew me to them, but they are great against cold weather, and yes, they are very comfortable. On the tongue it is marked "waterproof" and yes, they are waterproof. I am a garbage man and they withstand the trials and tribulation of such work, the waterproof of which I find a must have. You will not regret this as a purchase.

Great boots - I have been purchasing this same boot for 6 years. This might sound silly, but when they are new, there is so much support, you can literally sprint with these things and you are the quickest guy wearing steel toes! I swear by them and if they ever go out of production, I go out of production. They will last a solid year of serious abuse, way longer if you take care of them. Perfect 10. Thanks Timberland. I'm here to buy my 5th or 6th pair today.

I'm a dedicated Hobo International fan. This is my third purchase, and it's lovely. Room for (ahem) all of my cards and a beautiful, classic design. Warning about the magnets: don't put a transportation pass or anything else that can be demagnetized in the big outer pocket with the clasp (where you might fit a cell phone or something else if you use it as a clutch). It WILL demagnetize it. Everything's safe on the inside pockets, however.

The perfect fit - I am extremely happy with the boots I have received. They are comfortable enough to actually hike in. Though it is a work shoe, it has become a part of my everyday apparel. I also feel comfortable running in them as they are more comfortable than my combat boots issued to me while in the service. Satisfaction level on a scale from 1 to 10, I give them a 14!

My purchase - The Timberland Pro's I purchased are worth the price. They are not as comfortable as I would like them to be, but they serve their purpose. They seem to be able to stand up to the wear and I will put on them. The only improvement I would make is to make the soles with a little more cushion. Overall I am satisfied.

Work boots – I have tried a lot of work boots in my line of work and to take a pair of boots right out of the box and put them on and go to work and have them be so comfortable and easy on your feet is really nice. I swear by these boots. I have been doing shipping receiving for 25 years.

Timberland Pro Direct Attach 8" Steel Toe Boot - Zappos and Timberland both advise buying the boot to fit your regular boot size. I found I needed a whole size larger to accommodate the steel toe. Steel toes don't break in - they break your foot in so you had better make sure they fit comfortably from the start.

Great Construction Worker Boot! So comfortable! Put it on and it felt like it was already broken in. The best boot since my old Red Wings from 10 years ago. Wish it came with a Vibram sole and no steel toe, but otherwise perfect.I am in Construction Demolition and it seems to be taking the beating fantastically!!!!

Xtreme boot - I work in every type of extreme weather conditions, from floods to blizzards and ice. Not to mention areas that requires maximum protection from my foot gear. These boots offer me the best protection, stability and water-proofing I've found to date. The guarantee they come with says it all...love 'em!

Not at all what I expected from Timberland!! I had purchased these back in Jan.'05 and returned them a few weeks later. I had intended on purchasing another pair of Wolverines, but the particular style that has been very loyal to me had been discontinued. After searching the website for something comparable, I decided on these. I thought the name had a good reputation, so I gave them a shot. They were not very comfortable out of the box and the first time I wore them in the snow, my feet were absolutely soaked. Zappos is the best and let me trade these back for the last pair of Wolverines, in my size & style that they had!!

Poor quality - I bought Timberland PRO boots for about 5 years, always loving their comfort and quality. However the last two pairs I bought, though fairly comfortable, fell apart in about 6 months. The soles separated from the boot, the leather cracked. For anyone interested in good work boots I HIGHLY suggest Wolverine. They are more comfortable and last MUCH longer.

Steel toe housing rubs on toes - I have a large foot, size 15. I needed steel toe boots for employment, I found these boots to rub on my big toes(inside) where the housing of the steel toe ends and the regular leather begins. I don't know if it's because of the larger size of the boot. I am hoping that the shoe breaks in more and can become more flexible and possibly eliminate this problem. If it wasn't for this problem, I would have given it more stars.

Very comfortable, though something in the right heel was rubbing my heel to the point that I wanted to return them. But seeing that I'm in Iraq it’s too much of a hassle to return things. I inserted a piece of foam and no problems since…EXCELLENT work boot (I already need a new pair 84 hours a week x 9 months)
