Timberland set new industry standards for craftsmanship, durability and protection when it introduced an authentic, waterproof leather boot in 1973. A global leader in design, engineering and marketing of premium footwear, Timberland values consumers who cherish the outdoors and their time in it. Timberland has been an industry leader in the use of both sustainable and recycled materials in its shoes, as well as its footwear packaging. The Timberland Company believes in corporate responsibility and supports numerous civic and social projects throughout the year. These boots feature distressed full-grain waterproof leather with waterproof membrane, a molded Timberland PRO® rubber toe, direct-inject construction for durability, and a fiberglass shank for structural support. They have an Anti-Fatigue Technology polyurethane footbed for shock absorption and energy return. They are also breathable and feature moisture-wicking lining with anti-microbial treatment for odor control.
