Had a boss who loved to travel back in the day. One day, he decided to take a trip to Russia, and when he asked the staff what they wanted as a gift from there, some asked for a shot glass or key chain. I told him to get some Timberland boots from there. I was actually joking when I told him that. When he got back from his trip, he handed out the gifts. Then he handed me a box and when I opened it, it was a Timberland boots that had some Russian writing in it. The weird thing is that I have never seen any Timbs like it. It didn't have laces but instead a rubber band like loops that you pull and attach to a wood like dowel. It's hard to explain, but needless to say, I have yet to see another one of its kind. Also, they are EXTRMELY WARM. 😊

As a wearer of the Timberland PRO series, and finding them to be WAY more comfortable and warm for working on concrete for hours in my wood shop, I would love to see what is in the makeup of the footbed and sole that makes them so much more than the premium, which I started wearing when the original Herman survivors turned to garbage boots, years ago.

I have a pair of premium wheat timbs, I say they definitely are worth the extra $80 in my experience. They did keep my feet warm for sure and made many outfits look great in the process. I never had the basics, so I can't speak for those. However i should add that i certainly got what i paid for, much more durable than i anticipated and better than reviews have said they'd be. They do run a little big, so get a half size down when getting regular sizes or a full size down when getting wides. My only complaint was that the tread likes to grab rocks and sometimes the timbs can be hard with on/off access. But I can wear them all day for the most part and that makes me happy w my purchase.

[@abdellah4878]

Timberlands boots can cost between $75- $190 depending on the quality and size of the boots. For a pair of timberlands boots that cost $140, it costs $35 to make them and sell them to the retailer for $70 so they only pay $105 and get profit when someone buys the shoes. The company only pays 25% of the original cost to make the boots and sells it to the company for 50%. They receive 25% profit and taking advantage of us

I've been wearing my premium Timberland boots every day in winter for 5 years now, and they're still mostly good. The soles are hardly worn, except on the heel, and they've developed a crack in the leather along the big toe, where the leather meets the sole. The cracks get a little deeper each year, so this might be the last winter i wear them. The waterproofing also "wore out" at some point, so now I regularly treat them with leather grease, which did change the colour of the leather, but otherwise improved the boots and also enhanced their insulation properties. I was never too keen on the yellow colour to begin with.

So thanks for this video, now I know the originals are still made and I'm going to order a pair!

[@3COI]

I've had one pair of these, the premium version back in the late 90s when I was in high school and you would DEFINITELY be the laughing stock of the school for wearing the cheaper version (we called them fake). They were around $120-140 back then. I wore them for a few years and only stopped wearing them bc I had worn the back right side of both soles down so bad it negatively effected my walking gait and balance when I was standing. I didn't know anything about getting the soles replaced, so I just got rid of them even though I kept the shoes in almost pristine condition. This was back when every sneaker store sold the eraser/sponge brush combo to maintain anything with nubuck in the upper and I ran through the entire eraser

[@krunoslavkovacec1842]

Awesome channel. Just discovered it and subscribed. Happy holidays to you and everyone!

[@thermalreboot]

When I worked outdoors I swore by Timberland boots, they are durable and will last. I had a pair of Dunhams where the sole fell off after a week in the woods. Never again for Dunham, but if I was to work outdoors again I'd definitely go with Timberland.

7:14 love that he doesn't even mention his cat as they climb over him lol. such a cute cat.

[@thecatmont]

really liking these videos, you have answered many leather questions I've had. and Hi Toaster!

[@jasminpovey49]

This both hurts and interests me 😂 love seeing how they're made but hurts seeing them cut 😭

[@seviregis7441]

I have a pair of the premium ones in pink, but that kitty in a Christmas sweater steals the show

[@ShoShimpoTheBeast]

lmfaooo the ending tho... "then see you now" that made me sub right there

[@rpier8357]

If i send you a pair of Redwings 914 (used) would you use them to cut?

[@cassiodimande4992]

Really wanna see him do redwings!

[@bolojet]

RPier83 noooo I’ll buy the red wings from you

[@gboy028]

Aaaah yes please

[@MasterofPlay7]

914 are not heritage boots..........

[@taunokekkonen5733]

I think he would use his knife to cut.

[@justwithpranav5750]

one of the most detailed shoe reviews I've eseen. Hats off you to you man!!

[@Haph3us]

That premium insole insert is amazing, I bought a pair to replace my worn out red wing inserts recently and it’s day and night difference!

[@novideostoday]

Its not worth 100 dollars tho. You can literally get good insoles for 10 bucks 😁

[@J-tu2pb]

I’ve had both the premium and basics. I got a pair of basics about 4 years ago and this winter was shopping and saw the basics and the quality has gone down on the basics tremendously. The basics use to be a good deal I would get them for Christmas when I was in middle in high school my parents would buy them on the Black Friday deal for 100 dollars. Now I’m going to get the premium again now it’s only an extra 40 dollars and the quality is just that much better.

7:15 Xmas cat doing what they do 😍😍😍😍 awesome video

I can’t lie, this shit broke my heart a bit

It's a little heart breaking sometimes. 😔 But it helps others our who really want to but in the research before a purchase.🙂

I just stumbled on your channel and it’s funny how you were just asking for 50 k subs, and you’re at 455k as I’m in 2022. Kudos to you!

[@corradettimotorsports360]

I love my TImberlands, but found if they get soaking wet the liner has a lot of felt that washes off and sticks to my wet socks and takes a while to dry out, other than that they are very comfortable and well built! You should do a Walmart knock off comparison for fun! great video and I just subbed to ya!

[@matthewstait6453]

Didn't even know about there being two types, never seen a pair of basics until these videos!

[@d.felixphoto2260]

They used to not have a padded collar but now they do. Growing up the ones with no padded collar were a sin. Lol

[@wehosrmthink7510]

I’ve been wearing the regular timberlands for daily wear for almost 10 years after I sprained my ankle too many times. I love ‘em. So do my coworkers apparently , as they stole some I left at work.

[@Queenb2001]

I never realize how weirdly satisfying it is to see someone destroy and take apart shoes to his most basic components. I need more videos of this.

[@vongdong10]

I love my Premiums. They look good and are quite comfy. These boots are a steal if you can get a lightly used pair. I got a used pair that weren't even broken in yet (most like the reason they were sold because they weren't comfortable at first). I bought them for $100

[@aaronrou5335]

Got a pair with a slight crease in the toe for $40

[@aaronrou5335]

No tread loss. U bet your behind I bought em

[@robertosmmjlist]

So cool to see this in 2023! Congratulations.

[@Agitabodie]

2:40 I get why all the dads are complaining about how you are cutting because that knife is just begging to slip and go flying into your face with the way you cut and hold it, hehe.

[@RobertScottAudio]

I notice that as well. I'd use the cutter pointing down, so when it slips, it cuts into the shoe, not my finger(s).

[@eswing2153]

You do know this gentlemen cuts leather for a living right? He scoffs at Kevlar gloves and risk matrix bull crap.

[@Agitabodie]

@@eswing2153 Does this mean he can`t do anything wrong? I mean, it is kinda a chance of cutting himself vs holding it in a way that he can`t cut himself. He can do whatever he wants, but you cant honestly say that this being his job makes him immune to mistakes as clear as this :)

[@someguy7863]

Thumbs up for kitty scritches mid vid. I dunno how you held out that long dude, amazing.

[@sheetghost0744]

Personally I have the cheap ones and have had them for 4 years I do everything from deer hunting to logging to pheasants and duck retrieval, I have also fought bush fires on my farm in them. I’m the summer I work at a tool factory and use the pro steel toe series, they are all great!!!! Buy what you can afford they will work!

[@Kori-T]

as a guy who loves to wear Timbs, this hurt to watch

[@vadimmerin645]

Yeah, wanna cry than I see this😂 And have no idea, how is this in my recommendations, if I'm from Netherlands😂😂

[@ruffaccord]

Facts!

[@sunyard1080]

Big facts yo!!

[@SokolActor]

i have Premium timb ☹

[@isaacprosper6295]

Very much

[@TheClownfight]

This info is great, and I love these videos. Do you have a webpage, or somewhere you break down your preferences? Even if I watch 6 or 7 of these, it’s tough to get a feel of your personal preference. A couple questions I think we all have: What should we expect to pay for a decent work boot? What are some visual tell tale things we should look for, since we can’t cut them apart at the store (boy were they mad at me that day) Are there any brands you are consistently pleased with? And disappointed by? Don’t let these boots die in vain, man!

[@kYnTso]

Bought a pair back in 07. Now in 21 i finally learn that those same boots that i still wear in winter are premium Timbs.

[@gloomyx]

Finally someone made a video about this!! thank you

[@arthurgoldis8148]

I'd like to see what's in the Timberland Pro line of boots.

[@jeawhiz]

They have a steel toe!

[@Giowire59]

jeawhiz not all of the the timberland pro are steel toe

[@cjjams7930]

I got the boondock pros they are composite toe.....but they def move and bend with the foot well for being so thick and heavy.....can't say enough about them they are made very well despite what some reviews claim

[@malakisands8180]

I have 4 different Timberland Pro boots. Most hover around $200 for the ones I get. There is a difference for comfort and build. The type of work I do around chemicals and mining Bondocks and some Redwings are what you see. My oldest pair of Timberlands are 7 years and fit like a glove

[@cruelangel7737]

Thank you Mr. Boot Scientist! Now I know why they are so comfy. Walk 4 kilometers in them and all the time it just felt like walking on a thick carpet!
