Timberland quit making the soft toe pro titans that I liked so I picked up these instead. Timberland's sizing was very consistent from the pro titan to the montgomery bay. I jumped right in by wearing them to work in the prison. My job takes me from fence to fence. After just four months I couldn't wait to throw these shoes in the trash. I had to see a doctor about the foot pain that I developed which turned out to be plantar fasciitis. Can't say for certain that these shoes were the cause but I never had this condition before. I have grown to appreciate the timberland pro titans and hope they bring them back otherwise timberland has lost this customer.
