Boots: What are you wearing?
- Thread starter SJLee

I've been wearing a pair of Timberland's imports for a few years, looking for a sub $200, non-Chinese, quality hiking / mountaneering boot to replace them. I kept looking for my favorite boots from my youth and cannot find anyone that makes them new (lots of close ones, but none EXACT).
Some of you 40+ year olds may remember these... I found this pair on eBay a couple weeks ago and picked them up as a b'day present to myself.
Colorado brand, made in Italy and HEAVY compared to the hiking & work boots I've worn for the last couple decades. I've since swapped out the laces with some orange paracord.

Burgundy slip on timberlands. Can be worn with jeans or khakis. Get so many compliments on them, wish I could find another pair.

My shoe truck starting carrying these, in composite toe. Turns out they're by far THE most comfortable pair I own. I as a rule hate steel/composite caps. I actually pick these to wear OUTSIDE of work. That's gotta say something. I've had Docs, Bundstones, Cat and a few others. The very su-prizing thing is you can run, up on the balls of your feet and not notice you've got safeties on......

My Cat boots have done well for 6 years now. I wore them daily for the first two years. Soaked and dried many times here on the Oregon coast. They did not deform like a pair of Redwings I had when they were soaked through. Cat's are just badged Timberlines, worked well for me and I got them on a closeout at half price.

I will only buy Rocky boots. Iron Clads to be more specific. I don't wear boots outside of work.
