These boots are a east coast classic. I DONT KNOW ANY ONE THAT ACTUALLY WORK WITH THESE BOOTS LOL.

The only time you wear them for work is when they get dogged. You don't wear them for work when they're new, that's a no no!!!

[@marcoantonio6966]

I do

50 yr old from CA just moved to NY last month. Wife and daughter have the Docs for winter but I had to get my first pair of Timbs for the style and hip-hop influence I grew up with. I've watched many of your videos and was happy to find this one about the laces. I'll go with your tied method. Thanks!

Hey Jeff, this video is deadass New York Approved. Have a safe year my guy.

Got my first pair of classic 6" premiums, damn I'm happy af, knowing that I will be able to wear for at least 5-10 years to come. And they just stay classic all the time.

Amazing how I still have a 12 yr old pair I bought for $99 and now they are around $200 now. Classic quality and look !!

[@pmd2316]

I got a 50$ steal !

[@manelalentorn]

That’s called inflation brother! 😊 I wish I could buy them for 99$ now… I keep searching for sales… but it’s difficult to find sales for the 6” premium… it’s a classic boot

[@OG_Hundo]

BRUH!!! I used to cop these joints for $75/pair is I bought 2 or 3 at one time. Like you siad, now they $200!!! I drive out to the outlet when they having a sale and you can get them for like $125

[@DJinNJ-mp7us]

I’ve always just called ‘em Tims and first started wearing them back in the 90s like so many of us. Have loved the original wheats ever since my first pair! Maybe it’s me getting old but I got a pair of their wheat chukkas last year and love those, too! As a guy now in my 50s I often opt for chukkas because they’re easy as hell to style and never look like you’re trying too hard. The Originals will forever be the O.G. (pun intended)and always worth having, but the chukkas still give me the same confidence and get the same compliments. Gotta love the butters!😊

[@almazanjosejose8]

Do you believe in boot season or do you wear timbs year round?

Hey Jeff, Style OG what is you thought on best size when purchasing ,as many even myself have found out that if you get you normal shoe size they are uncomfortable, so would you say one size or a half size up is better?

[@christophermoody1448]

O.G. I agree with you on many things. A lot of things, really. However, the only time a man over 40 should be in Timberland work boots is if he’s doing outdoor work and or working at a construction site. Now someone might say that I don’t know what I’m talking about or I’ve never owned a pair of Timberlands. I’m in the over 50 crowd and I’ve owned Timberland sandals, clogs, Canards ( 5 years, unfortunately there’re no longer made) and Nanooks( 16 winters - no longer available). I know folks who wore Timberlands year round and now they can’t wear them anymore because their feet took a beating as a result. Don’t get wrong, I’ve seen Timberland suede work boots in colors other than Wheat Nubuck and they are sexy. There was even a pair called Foundry with a steel plate to protect the feet, that caught my eye. But they are no longer sold. Anyhow, please suggest to your subscribers that Timberlands are cool, but expand the list other than the typical work boot. As usual, great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@thatGuyQuincy]

yeah like you said in ny we call em constructs ...i first heard baltimore & dc heads calling them joints " butters" early 2000s & thought that sounded funny.. 90s i would skip every other hole(called "jail style" ) & tie it up ...now i lace them up until the top 3 holes is left empty then i tie & let tongue sag

[@TheStyleOG]

appreciate the feedback Quincy!

[@jacobgoodrich3400]

Such a classic boot. I like to lace mine up to the third to last hole. Then lightly tie them. Its always fun to play with the lace style. Says alot about the person wearing them.

[@dareagbelese1952]

Please tell me about sizing? Do you go half or a full size down from your US size or do you buy them true to size?

[@TheStyleOG]

half size down

[@jimmore9522]

[@breahunt8846]

They really aren’t that expensive for a good pair of boots. I’m lucky in the sense that I have small feet and can fit in a boys 5&1/2😂 Love Timbs for life tho😍

[@felixgutierrez993]

Got my premiums at a Factory Store and got them 20 bucks off its online price. Also pretty sure there other deals when they are cheaper but get the Premiums the Basic isn't worth it especially how the Basics drastically gone up in price spend a lil dough and get moe!

[@youngworld6646]

Honestly however they were laced when took them out the box is how I rocked'em. Stopped wearing them, feels like 10 lbs weights on each foot. Kicks are a lot more comfortable. Great vids btw!

[@TheStyleOG]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@Deon0026yickadee]

Do they run big?

[@cha080209]

OG, can you wear tims with shorts?

[@vedo8227]

Hell yeah I do it

[@TheNikehead76]

I always miss the second hole while lacing new timbs. Gives you more string to lace then bust open

[@bobbyroof5131]

In the Ruff ryder anthem video, style p is wearing some times with shorts. Those by cats are different. I don't find them comfortable. I have a pair that's 13 years old. Maybe worn them 15 times.

[@josephanthony1655]

I always had a habit of custom making my own Timberlands. But now I'm in my 30's and don't want to seem childish. So I was thinking of purchasing solid dark colors.

[@TheStyleOG]

Had to be me me Chris !

[@DrunkenMalkavian]

Man, I went a full size down for my Timbs already and my heels won't stay in place with the loose lacing. I guess I'll just go with lacing them tightly all the way up - I dig the army boot look anyway.

[@timothyslaughter476]

Contrary to popular belief butters were worn as a fashion item by east coast preps long before hip hop made them a worldwide sensation. I got my first pair of premium in 1978 after i saw a kid in my jr high had a pair he bought at timberland in maine. I ordered mine, i lived in Maryland. It was $75 and $2 shipping and took six weeks cuz they were by order only initially. We already had timberland i was wearing the low moccasins but obviously once we saw the premium that was that. A must have. We basically wore tims with levis straight leg cords mostly and izod alligator polos but rl polo was coming around. We just laced the boots up regular and wore the straight legs over the tim collars but they still rocked hard. The yellow boot looked great with those red, blue, and green colored levis cords. It was a first generation of the street style you see today. 1978. That's the history and i got pictures to prove it lol. Hip hop ended up making tims famous and the way they styled em was freaking amazing so i give credit but the OG'S??? That was some suburban dudes on the east coast in late 70s. And for the DC or NYC argument on who had em first. I don't know about NYC but i did see tim butters on feet in DC early 80s. It was a thing. Peace sir.

[@deanburdick7769]

The loose fit looked best on you, brother. The tied up one didn't look so sharp. What if you left em loose and rethreaded the last bit of the lace though the hole instead of leaving them outside laying lose their hidden inside? Also, what about putting a small piece of leather to hold it down, I have a pair of Hey Dudes that use a pinch of leather to hold the lace in a way it looks stylish.

[@masonkhamvilay538]

I originally went with the droopy tongue version and now I want to go back to the stiff tongue like this but can't. It's stuck in droop mode like it's chronically depressed.

[@brianjohnson4780]

That means it’s time to cop a new pair, fam.

[@CharlesTurnerTheKing]

Hey Jeff, I bought an black Alpha Field Jacket on sale yesterday. In my opinion, the field jacket would go GREAT with Timb's. I don't recall you ever covering the field jacket,....but you might have. Just wondering your thoughts on it, and on the Field Jacket-Timb's combination. Thanks.

That’s a great combo Anthony. Field jacket is a hole in my wardrobe..

[@westfieldartworks8188]

@@TheStyleOG Thanks G. I feel you would look great in the classic M-65. But any field jacket (particularly olive), you would rock, in my opinion.. I feel the having the olive color up around my head and face does me no favors. It makes me look too pale, so I went with black...or navy if they would have had it. Jose Zuniga I feel looks really good in his field jackets. I feel you would too Jeff for the same reasons; skin tone and upper body development.
