Timberland PROMen's Gravel Pit 10" Steel Toe Waterproof Boot Industrial Work

Product quality is amazing as far as I can tell, width was perfect and the steel toe has plenty of coverage and width. Materials are tough and the rubber guard over the steel toe is amazing, literally the reason I bought the boots. Only problem I have with them is the metatarsal guard is way to tight, it's fine when you slip the boot on but as soon as you walk in it it puts a lot of pressure on the top of your foot and starts to dig into the top of your foot and becomes painful to walk in after a few hours. Will be removing the insole to try and mitigate this issue, could just be that I have a high arch. Couldn't find any other 10" steel toe boots with rubber toe guards so I hope it works.

I bought these on a whim because I have had them in my wishlist forever and my old Timberlands just had their soles split and the toes are worn thing. Not bad for 3 years of abuse.Got them next day and put them on and knew right away that there was a problem. They were much more snug than I had anticipated.I wore them with white socks while lying in bed to just see how they felt because the left meta was putting a lot of pressure on my left foot (the larger of my 2). I then put on boot socks and adjusted the boot and it seemed much better.I decided to wear them out for an errand to the store and back and had to take them off. The pressure on the top of my foot was bad enough that it felt like I was getting shin splints. Once I got them off it was much better.Thoughts:1. The boot is built like Frankenstein's2. The steel toe is 4x stitched and looks tough as nails.3. There are 4 hook/eye on both sides rather than just hooks like my current boots.4. The tongue is thick and completely connects to the outside of the boot to ensure waterproof-nessWhen I put them back in the box I realized that it was labeled 11.5 US 45.5 EU and I've been measured for both and I've always been 11.5 US 46 EU so I don't know what has changed but apparently I order the wrong size. I'm going to send them back and get a larger size and see if that works. Otherwise I love the boots and really wanted the internal meta because it's a nicer look. That and I'm clumsy and drop stuff on my feet all the time so the extra protection is great.Update 2/10/13: I ended up having to return the 2nd set as the 13s(EU 46)were too big. The only advice I can give is that what ever size you normally wear, I would suggest ordering at least .5 size bigger. So here's a chart of what I learnedTimberland: Size 11.5US = 45.5EUAmazon: Size 13US = 46EUTradehome(measured) 11.5US = 46EUMy measurements above was from our local Tradehome shoe store. Obviously there's no consistency so you'll just have to take a chance.Also, the internal meta does reduce your squatting capability due to it restricting your forward ankle bend. But it's possible since I didn't find the right size it was all in that issue.Either way, if you can find a pair to fit you I'm sure you love 'em; They look great and are very well built.

These are heavy duty work boots, and they are a tad heavy to lug around all day. However I have indeed been lugging them around for 12 years. I have bought about 6 pair of them now, and they are extremely tuff, and they keep my feet warm and dry. These are hands down the toughest boot Ive ever had. And Ive worked in steel mills with hot metal and rough concrete , and sharp jagged edges everywhere, Ive used them in the Oilfield, and I have used them while I was driving a concrete mixer truck....where they got wet daily with concrete, mud, and water. They also go the extra mile in designing the inside of the boot. My feet don't get cold when its 15 degrees Fahrenheit and even down to zero. Yet they also don't sweat when its 108 here in Oklahoma summertime. I have no idea how they do that. And also my feet don't hurt at the end of the day either. Ive stood on concrete all day working 70+ hours a week. And 90+ hours a week in the oilfield. Im 50 years old now, and I still wear these clunkers. The inside never wears out, and the sole never wears out. I dragged my feet down a gravel road while riding a dirt bike for a long ways just to see if it would grind them down, and it didn't. The inside is warm, and soft and cushiony, yet has kind of a shock absorber material in there. I weigh about 260 pounds and Im really hard on boots. If you want a tough azz boot this is it. The sole is so thick you will actually be about a inch taller, maybe even 1 1/2 taller. But they are heavy. PS. I believe they moved the manufacturing of these boots to China. The last pair only last about 6 months when a sole fell off.

They are heavy and it took me a bit to get used to the weight but they support and protect my feet. I am diabetic and am very aware that my feet need protection because I don't want to loose them. For the weight you get boots that are the most comfortable I have ever worn and almost indestructible. They are built for the most dangerous and demanding jobs. My property is loaded with every kind of sharp and rusty metal, broken glass, cactus, scorpions, fire ants: lots of hazards. When I put these on I have no fear of foot damage or fatigue. The leather is amazing, ankle support is excellent, the foot bed is very comfortable, and the toe box could not be better. They have so many certifications, are waterproof and insulated. The soles are thick and aggressive but don't get plugged up. I love these boots.

Bought for my son for Christmas. He works out in freezing temps in the oil fields. Absolutely loves these. Good ankle support, traction and super warm.

good fit. they are a bit heavy
