Timberland close enough boot

Post by whipitgood »

I think these Timberland's could pass for a close enough boot if the eyelets were replaced and they were distressed.

I agree - great looking boots! I'm going to keep my eyes open for these.

They are on Ebay all the time and I think they go between $50-65 new. If you were to buy them retail I believe they are about $120.

That is a cool work boot from Timberland. I get bored with their other rounded toe design.

You would have to scratch, sand, rub, and basically beat the you-know-what out of those for them to look passable because of that logo and the type of leather

An excellent suggestion!

:D

But the logo on the side may indeed be a problem. If you want them to look SA, that is.

On the other hand, if you are looking for boots to just wear every day, these are perfect. Where can I get my hands on them?

As far as I'm concerned these are Timberland #59569 and they were part of 2007 holiday collection. Try to google them. I guess I was lucky enouh to find them in a very small shop around the corner.

The name of the boot is:

"Timberland Urban Workaday"

Tried looking on the net but no luck... maybe there were a limted edition or a boot they don't make any more. If someone finds them on-line, please post the link here (unless its on ebay which then you can let us know in that case).
