Timberland PRO Men's Pit Boss Industrial Work Boot

My son needed new work boots that are comfortable enough to wear during his long shifts doing electrical work. He has to have something flexible enough to bend as he's kneeling or crawling into small spaces, durable enoughto last more than a few months, non-slip and steel toed. These boots check all those boxes. These boots are very well made and do not hurt his feet. They are true to size and look nice, not that he cares what they look like at his work sites. I care that they offer foot protection and are durable.

These are well made with quality materials and excellent workmanship. They are durable, comfortable, have gripping soles and last a long time (about 5 years per pair). This is my third pair. I trust and rely on this brand time after time.

I got a job working in a plant in August of 2014 so obviously I needed a pair of steel toe shoes which were mandatory. I did not have much money so I made an amateur move and purchased some steel toe Die Hard shoes from Kmart. I will not go into deep detail about the Die Hard's, but I will say that I found myself buying a new pair of the same Die Hard shoes and replacing them around every three months and they were around $29.99 a pair. My Timberland PRO Men's Pitboss 6" Steel Toes did not come in until November 2015 so if you do the math, that is right, I owned 5, yes, FIVE, pair of Die Hard steel toe shoes (sometimes even doubling up) within a year and three months time so I dished out about $150.00 on those shoes altogether. So those shoes were not meant to hold up walking 8 - 12 hours on concrete for 40 hours a week. I finally decided I was tired of buying new steel toe shoes every three months and spending that type of money so I decided to do some research and came past this product and the difference is night and day. This is my sixth month owning these steel toe boots and they are still holding together great. I have absolutely no complaints. After breaking them in they are a lifesaver. As I said, this is my sixth month owning this boot and it is still holding together nicely. I really like the way these boots lace up to the top of the ankles. It makes for a very good tight fit and you rarely have to worry about retying your shoe during your job. I like how tough they are. It has been six months and by now I would have spent $60.00 on the Die Hard steel toes because they would have been worn out, ripping apart, and the steel for the toes being exposed or even popping out. These boots they are still intact, a few scratches, but nothing to complain about it is what comes with the territory. These boots are comfortable. When I was wearing my Die Hard steel toes I would come home every day and my feet would be in serious pain and be very sensitive. Now these boots do not take away the pain of walking around on concrete for 40 hours a week, but they do well absorbing the shock of walking and giving protection for your feet. The break in period did not take long at all so you will not have to worry about that. I have only one negative feedback and that is the color on the boot seemed very faded and made me question whether I received a knockoff or a already worn pair, but nothing that takes away from the quality of the product. Also I would like to suggest that if you do buy a pair of these boots that you own some socks that go up mid-knee because wearing ankle socks the material of the boot will irritate the Achilles. Do not be like me. Go out there and get yourself a good pair of work boots. You will save yourself a lot of money, time, and frustration in the process. Besides the faded color of the boots upon receiving there are not any real complaints I can come up with about this product. This is truly a top of the class work boot fit to do long hours of hard labor. I cannot really say I love these boots the only way that would happen is if it took away the pain from my feet entirely, but I will give credit when its due and say that it has help reduce the pain significantly. I hope this review helped. If you were on the fence about buying these, trust me, do it, you will not be disappointed. I would also like to give Amazon's 3D virtual fit measurements a quick mention. I was very skeptical, but the boots ended up fitting just fine.

Timberland sizing is always a mystery to me. Depends on the type of boots you buy from them, sizing are all over the map. For regular timberland classic boots I had to go down 1 full size to get a good fit without my heel slipping and excessive room in the toe box. That's what I was planning to go with before I bought this steel toe boot, thank god I read the reviews on them. 1. Sizing: For this boot, you really want to go to your normal true size. Now, everyone has a different opinion on what their true size is, the way I determined mine was that there is no heel slippage, and I have enough room in the toe box that my toes are not right up against the end of toe box. For most Nike/Adidas/Jordans, I am a size 10, and they typically fit me just as I described above. For this pair of timberland, I went with a size 10 with normal width. The fit was good, but not perfect. Due to the steel toe, the toe box are narrower, and shorter then typical Timberland, and since it's a work boot, the insole seems to be thicker and provide better support than regular Timberlands (i'm comparing it to Timberland classic 6 inch boot). All that translate to a smaller fit when compare to a Timberland classic 6 inch boot. So when I went true to size, it felt good. Only complain is that the heel of the boot is wider so I do have some heel slippage, but this was easily remedied by thicker socks or socks with heel padding. 2. comfort: I bought this mainly to work in a laboratory condition where there are heavy machinery, so I don't walk in them all day long. However, I did notice that the support was excellent and my feet ain't tired at end of the day despite the fact that this pair of boots is HEAVY! 3. lacing: I like to provide some comment on lacing. It's hard to to tie this pair of boot up "snug." What I do I mean by snug? Well, typically when I lace up a boot, I like to make sure I felt a little bit of pressure from lacing it up from the top of my foot up to where I tie a knot. However, because of the steel toe and it being a very stiff boot, I can hardly feel any pressure on top of my foot when I lace it up. But since my foot isn't moving around in the boot, I was ok with it. You can lace the top of the boot tight once you get past your ankle though, the top of the boots does have more give to them where you can lace it up tight if needed. 4. Overall: Great boot, on the heavy side, but provided great support. Durability review will come later.

I got 12w (2E) pitboss. I work in a machine shop that requires steel toe, first time spending more than 40 bucks on work boots. I get 12s in most boots for extra toe room and relief of a bunion on my left from a nasty fracture as a kid. Could probably be comfortable in 11.5 with this spacious steel toe if I had too, happy with my size choice though. Out of the box: I was concerned, they felt stiff in my hands and pulling the insole out revealed a foam thing that didn't seem to have the foot shape that I expected. Mmmm new shoe smell. I liked the laces, thin but strong feeling. The best part about the laces is how easily it was to take them out and thread them through. From the pictures on here I thought there were 3 things you wrap the laces around to tie them, there is actually two and the third ones down are a tighter hole that keeps the lower holes from getting too loose. Another awesome point is that the wrap around nub things at the top are polished and rounded which I can tell will help the laces from fraying and breaking at this spot like most of my previous boots. Walking in them doesn't feel like any "new" pair of boots I've had. The soles are curved in the right places. Arch feels supported and all together solid. I crouch down a lot, sort of sitting on my heels; everything felt fine and the leather didn't crack or fold in on itself like one would see in cheaper material. I plan to wear these for a month at work then updating. I am not gentle on footwear. Kicking metal and wood, tripping up on stuff and constantly crouching and getting low is daily. 30+ days later, photos added. These things are beast, interior is holding up better than any footwear I have ever owned. Exterior has taken some serious beatings without showing any significant damage. An 83 lb bar hit the front of my right foot from about 3 ft up and barely split a tear into the leather. Sole isn't showing any signs of separation from boot. Treads barely look used, my step counter averages 10k steps a day at work. I did put some new insoles in but that was because after a week or two the extra wide size I got started to let my feet move around too much for my liking. I will continue to buy the wider size though, with the insoles it took these to a whole new world of comfort. I love these things, I plan on buying these in the future. They have ruined other footwear for me I feel so spoiled. If you've read to this point what are you waiting for get a pair.

Nice and feel great

Okay look at box + boot...not 🚫 14W not 🚫 black and WRONG style. Amazon will correct this hopefully the seller will see this. 4 sizes too small no breathability to fit my 14W foot 👣 water resistance? Comfort? Quality?ease of use and slip resistance frustration. 😂

These are solid work boots that hold up extremely well. The boots themselves are comfortable, protective, and durable enough to last for years of regular use. Stability and breathability are good. My only complaint is the laces—they wear out surprisingly quick compared with the rest of the boot and usually need to be replaced. Other than that, these have been dependable work boots and a great value.

Se ven de buena calidad pero me han enviado una talla menos y ahora han subido el precio,me toca molestarme en llevarlas a devolver,nose si compraré mas

Super, élégante et confortable

excellente qualité

Nonostante la marca, con cui mi ero sempre trovato benissimo, questo stivaletto non rispecchia in alcun modo la qualità costruttiva e dei materiali che furono all'origine del successo di Timberland. Lo stivale è rigido, scomodo, e causa vesciche ai piedi. Non so dove sia stato costruito, ma non ha nulla a che vedere con gli eccezionali stivaletti Timberland che comprai nel 2006. Non lo consiglio assolutamente. Restituito.

Independientemente de que las botas estéticamente me gustan mucho, es una excelente compra, las uso para construcción y taller de carpintería, la suela no es 100% antiderrapante en estos rubros, algo falla, pero tiene buen agarra, no sé cómo funcione en otros terrenos, el casquillo no afecta en nada a la talle, yo pedí exactamente el número que calzo y me quedaron perfectas, ni holgadas, ni largas ni me aprieta donde está el casquillo, tiene buena altura en la parte del tobillo para que no se doble o te protega de algun golpe, y el amarre de agujetas es optimo para agarrar el tobillo, el único detalle que le veo yo es que la plantilla que trae no es nada comoda y acaba lastimando a los minutos de usarla, tuve que comprar otras plantillas, y con las 2, se siente como el arco del pie lo levanta un poco, poco, no mucho, y al principio molesta, pero mientras las usas y se van amoldando las botas, se acomoda esa parte y sin problemas. En fin, recomiendo 100% las botas, para las que lo uso yo, cumplen su función al 100% que es mi seguridad.
