Great work boots worth the price
Bought these for my boyfriend he works construction, the only thing he mentioned is that they are heavy but he said they are extremely comfortable great for the rain and did not need to be broken into. His previous boots needed to be broken into and gave him blisters.Leather quality is great. Water proof.

Great boot except
This is a really nice, well built, good-looking boot that fits GREAT. About myself. I'm 6'3" and weigh 350 lbs. I have wide feet. Won't even consider a boot or sneaker that's not a wide size and even then, they don't always fit. I wore these in my house for 4-5 hours. Heels stay in place with no rubbing and the anti-fatigue insoles make walking very comfortable. This boot is wide and provides a lot of support yet stays in place on your foot. In other words, it doesn't feel like your feet are swimming in them. Toe box is great. I was surprised how easy it was for me to move my toes around especially being a composite toe. Not being able to move my toes around is almost always an issue for me and that's with boots that are soft toe, these are a composite toe. Also, this boot is very easy to get on and off. You don't have to wrestle with them for ten minutes just getting them on and laced up or getting them off.The only issue with this boot is the eyelet/speed hook combination at the top of the boot. They stick out pretty far on the inside of the boot and dig into my skin. Bad....bad design! I wish Timberland either went with an eyelet or a speed hook not this AIO nonsense. Awful design! Truly heinous! Feels like there's a Pitbull biting on the side of my leg. Terrible!Even though I had to return, the fit/feel, support and look of this boot is so great, I still give it 5 stars. I'll return for the 8" boot. The eyelets/speed hooks are higher up on the 8" boot and you don't have to lace them all the way up just to keep them on your feet.FYI people. This is a work boot. It's big, bulky and heavy. They're supposed to be that way. If you don't want that then don't buy this boot. I've read a lot of reviews here where people complained about that. If you don't want big and bulky than try a cheap hiking style boot like something from Merrell.Will let you know how the 8" boot feels.

Excellent boots, if a little heavy for all-day hiking work
Bought my first pair of Timberland Pro 6" Boondocks in 2021. Used hard but non-continuously (I'm an archaeologist, so our field projects are usually for a few months at a time, then a break for a few weeks, then back to the field, then a break, etc. I would estimate I've spend 1500 hours each year in the field while wearing these boots. Not the best for hiking projects given their weight, but they survived several field seasons in South Dakota, where I personally walked at least 1900 total miles over 3 years of the project (six days a week for about 5 months at a time, 5 miles per day on average) plus countless other projects and thousands of shovel test excavations across the country.) Ultimately, the uppers started breaking down on me, mostly at the main flex point just rear of the toe cap. Once the cracks in the leather there were deep enough, all water-proofing was gone. Most of the last 2 months, my feet were wet from the morning dew and pretty much stayed that way all day (ONLY because the 4-year old uppers are now worn out, mind you.) The tread, amazingly, is still intact and not worn smooth!When the boots were newer, the waterproofing was adequate, and if I'd have done any leather treatment periodically, I probably could have gotten a season or two more out of them. As with all leather footwear, once dirt has a chance to infuse the leather, which happens often when you're digging holes with a shovel all day, the waterproofing takes a massive hit. I'm just terrible about cleaning the leather as I should. But I still can't complain... If I'd have gotten a cheaper ~$100 pair of safety toed boots, I'd be lucky to get more than a year out of them before the soles wore through or the upper disintegrated. That I got 4 years out of these Timberlands speaks volumes for me of their value for the cost.The only complaint I have about the boots is they are a little heavy, and for me, they seemed to take forever to break in. But that isn't stopping me from buying a replacement pair today. As with any safety toe boot, I'd recommend going with the Wide fit; in my opinion, the "wide" is still a little narrow, but that may just be my feet. Length seems pretty normal, as a 10.5 wide fits much like any other shoe I have in 10.5 size.
