This is my second pair of Timberland Chocorua Trail boots. The first pair is still going strong, though a bit worn after three years.  I like them so much that I wanted to be sure I had another pair in case they were to be discontinued.  I truly  hope they are not, as Timberland really has created a fine all-around general-wear light-hiking boot.

This boot has everything one needs in a light hiker; excellent true-to-size fit, rugged grippy sole, and waterproof well over your ankle.  For me, there is virtually NO break-in period with this boot.  They are unbelieveably comfortable from the first time you put them on.  The quality of their materials and construction is evident, as my old pair has not so much as one broken stitch.  Even the laces have lasted as long as the boots themselves.

If you are looking for a wonderfully comfortable hiking boot to wear often, this is the boot you need.  They are made in a few colors and men's sizes also.  My husband feels the same about them, and also has two pairs, and he is picky about his boots!
