Timberland PROmens Titan® Oxford Safety Toe Low Industrial Work Shoe, Black, 9.5 Wide US

I have a wide foot coupled with a very high instep. I good, tough oxford for outdoor work and hiking is pretty much impossible to find for my foot in women’s shoes. The only exception in the past has been the Propet Snow Walker - a waterproof oxford ankle boot that was fantastically comfortable and warm. But, those have been discontinued so I started my hunt. Because of my very wide foot, I often have to turn to men’s shoes, but oxfords are very hard to find.Well, I came upon this shoe while searching Timberland’s site. I wanted black and needed a 7.5 in wide (I usually wear a 9-9.5 X-wide in women’s shoes). I was a little hesitant about the alloy toe as I was afraid the shoe would be impossibly stiff and clunky to wear. I remember my husband’s steel-toe shoes from his days in P&G’s paper factory in Pennsylvania - those were total clunkers and so clumsy for him to wear. Getting my foot in was a little snug, but once I had them on and tied, what a pleasant surprise! Unlike so many men’s shoes, these do not press down on my instep, the toe box provides a good fit without cramming my toes together, and they were comfortable to walk in right out of the box. I only wish the black came in X-Wide like the oiled brown ones do. These are fine, but extra width is always appreciated by my oddball feet. I haven’t gotten outside yet in these, but have been wearing them around the house for 6 hours now - up and down stairs, sitting, standing, moving from room to room - and they feel as comfortable as my running shoes (just stiffer in the toe box). These are certainly keepers.

Shoes fit great and are durable, I stand all day and fit comfortably.

If you sneeze too hard with them on they will scuff.. I've scuffed them just tying my shoes. No joke. I am disappointed because they look so nice, first day I had the fronts all scuffed up from minor contact with like the bottom of the counter tops and what not. I think this will be my fist and last time buying Timberlands.

First off, the boot does take some time to break in and get used to - especially around the ankle. Most of the bad reviews were people who probably didn’t give it time to break in. I dealt with the discomfort for around 2 weeks and when it really annoyed me I’d wear thicker socks or loosen up the shoelaces. They haven’t bothered my ankles in months since they’ve broken in.I also had to remove the inserts and carefully re-insert them because the right one wasn’t in far enough and felt odd under my heel.Aside from that they are a 5 star boot. They are very lightweight and felt more like a steel toe sneaker in weight than a leather boot. I do a lot of crouching down to work on equipment at my work and I was struggling to find a steel toe that for one, bent well at the toe with no resistance, and that had a steel toe that wouldn’t dig into the top of my foot whilst it was bent. This checked both of those.I work in a factory so going on a couple months they’ve held up fine. They do get wet sometimes and it doesn’t seem to hurt the leather. They’re a bit bulkier than they appear in the picture but not too bad.Give them a shot. Let them break in for a few weeks to a month before you give up on them. I’ll probably buy another pair when these have worn.

These are the most expensive and the most comfortable work shoes I have ever owned. The last cheaper pair I owned exhibited such severe insole degradation after 1 year that they were causing painful bunions to develop. If these hold up longer-term I will be happy. I expect they will.

Have worn Redwing Oxford safely shoes for more then 30 yearsNot really available any longer, these are actually better made and more comfortable then the Redwings of the past few yearsShould have changed a long time ago

I work in an office building, but I spend lots of time walking outdoors at the beginning and end of my shifts. I wear out a typical pair of office shoes in 2 months. So I need something more durable. And I sometimes visit work sites where safety toe is required. Enter work oxfords... I bought this pair of Timberland shoes to replace a cheaper pair of work shoes I had worn out after several years. So far so good after a few months. It takes a little bit of time to break them in like a good pair of boots. They are plenty durable enough. The safety toe is reassurance when I am out on sites. However they are much heavier than what I am used to wearing! That's the price to pay for safety and durability I guess.

Timberland should have $100 safety shoes. The quality is decent.

As a luxury safety shoe for your daily construction site visit, I should say Design &Quality are great! it looks like a part of your foot when you walking. these are not heavy at all like CATERPILLAR and these are very flexible. but I do not recommend it for the concrete job! it is better to wear rubber safety shoes instead of leather ones.

Muy cómodo para ser un zapato de seguridad, además de no parecerlo, viene con una plantilla especialmente esponjosa que, al menos a mi, hace que se me olvide que llevo estos zapatos. Yo, al contrario que mis compañeros, me los pongo y me los quito en casa.

I have only been wearing these for 3 days. Super comfortable. Usually i have to break a boot in for a week before it reaches the comfort zone 10/10 but these are nice so far.

excelente zapato de seguridad, jamas va ser un zapato cómodo como los de calle, es un zapato industrial, pero sin embargo, es cómodo para lo que representa
