Very disappointed with these boots. First off they applied a pressure point on my ankles and it doesn't matter if they are left loose or tied tight. They lost their shape between the heel and the toe which is more visual but doesn't say much about the quality. They also discoloured very quickly and I noticed part of the sole is already cracked. For nearly $200 I would expect more from Timberland especially when I had a pair of their shoes which I wore for 18 months and they were comfortable from the minute I put them on until I threw them out.
