Are you looking to buy a pair of Timberlands but unsure about the size? Or maybe you’ve owned a couple in the past and are now wondering if the proportions have changed. Today, we’re answering the question: do Timberland boots run big? Breaking in Timberlands isn’t much different than with other shoes and boots. Although, keep in mind that the way you break-in your shoes, determine how well they’ll perform throughout their lifespan. Here are some pro tips you can follow:

These run bigger, so it’s recommended that you buy half a size smaller than your usual sneaker size. For its casual lines, such as sneakers and heels, the shoes seem to run narrower. Timberland’s lines of synthetic and leather boots, plus hiking shoes, can be stiff and do require a break-in period.

Then the mid soles started crumbling apart so I couldn’t glue them anymore, the soles on these boots only had about half wear, and I had to throw them away. So, do Timberlands run big? Yes and no. Its boots and PRO Series are on the bigger side, but casual wear, like sneakers and heels, don’t.Using the Scotch tape, attach the paper to the floor directly in front of a wall.

The company was founded in Boston in 1928 when it was called the Abington Boot Company, then bought by Nathan Schwartz in 1952 and renamed Timberland in 1973, the same year this boot was launched. Intended for wear by New England’s working class, the boot became popular among construction workers and farmers who spent northeastern winters working outside on their feet.

Recognize the signs of a poorly fitting shoe. Don’t always assume that snug shoes will loosen over time—this depends on materials and some can leave you in unnecessary pain.

To be clear, these boots get dirty really easily. There are a lot of ways to take care of them, but I think the biggest downside of the boots by far is that they get dirty way more easily than regular leather.

Earthkeepers Glancy 6” Boot for women, however, seems to be more tight-fitting, especially around the arch and toe. You can combat this by buying a wider size.

As they begin to feel more comfortable, wear them for longer periods.
