Customer Reviews Timberland PRO Hyperion WP XL Safety Toe

I bought these Timberland Pro Hyperion boots to replace my conventional Timberland workboots (no steel toe, tan 8" height) which I have loved, but which have sufficiently worn out. I watch a lot of sports programs, and this specific product is advertised heavily on the NFL and NHL broadcasts that I watch. I bought online at Zappos, because you cannot go wrong with their customer service and rapid delivery. They are fantastic quality and craftsmanship in the boot itself. The boot feels solid and substantial. The materials used are quality, and although the boots themselves are heavy - they are not overly bulky. The sole has an excellent, aggressive tread, very similar to a high performance all weather tire tread, it is Vibram - a quality sole. The overall appearance of the boot is what drew me to this particular model of the Pro series - black with silver mesh-like material on the uppers (3 "v" shaped areas on each side) and some royal blue accent on heel as well as a matching royal blue breathable lining that is super comfortable and just the right thickness. The lining gives a great soft warm feel to the boot overall. Two sets of laces were included - one that is royal blue, and one that is black with royal blue specks. The upper closures for the laces are a combination eyelet and loop, allowing you to either thread the laces through, or wrap around, depending upon how tightly you want to lace them up. These boots feel amazing on my feet. While they are not terribly flexible (I am not sure if any steel-toe boot is), they are lightweight enough to feel agile on my feet. I wore these to a weekend football game in the northeast during a cold snap (20°F) and for six hours my feet were dry, comfortable and never tired. I also love the fact that they look like a hybrid hiking boot / sneaker in appearance, rather than a bland workboot. I know the Timberland brand since I was a kid - always wanting a pair of new Timberland boots. Unboxing these was no different - I know they will serve me well for many years to come. You cannot go wrong!

Have had these almost a month and are quite comfortable. Quality seems as good as my last pair of Timberlands of a different style which lasted a year plus of everyday use. Looks good too.
