I am a die hard Timb fan and these boots are no exception. They are incredibly comfy. W a hard boot, sueded sides, leather on top. The bottom is non slip. Side zip so you don't have to mess w the laces. One of my boots always comes unlaced. My only complaint is that I wish the tongue were a little more firm. It is very floppy and needs to be held in place while zipping the boot. Not a very big deal, though. The boot is very stylish and has stood up very well to the rain. I have not been out in the snow yet.  I've worn them for hours and my feet felt great.
