Hello everyone. Here's another boot review. I bought the Timberland Earthkeepers 6' Original Boot back in December of 2013 and it is the first over $100 boots I bought. Timberland has always been popular back when I was growing up and for the yellow boots. These are some really cool boots. Timberland Earthkeepers are one of my go-to boots during the hottest part of the summer.
I hope that you enjoyed this review. Thank you for your support (to those that follow me) and if you are new here please consider subscribing.

Got these boots back in 2006...still have them...hands down...great boot!
I agree, one of the best. I do have a lot of good ones too.
are they good for winter?
Love these boots. I’m about to purchase my 5th pair since 2015. Great vid. Thanks
Still have mine from 2007 (in 2022) and they are still in pretty good shape
Nice boots, growing up here in the 90s CATS had more status as a serious boot, I have a pair with steel toes for work that I bought around 2010 and they are still going strong
Definitely can’t beat CATS as a serious work boot. I think I wore the ankle boots with the safety toes. I couldn’t pull it of as a daily casual boots though.
Nice style boot I like the tan model goes with a lot
Thanks! 😎
Just purchased a pair for $68. Looking forward to trying them on. Great video!
That’s a great deal! Congrats!
Where did u get them that cheap at?
@@fevans2366 I just bought a pair. They’re on sale for $65 at finish line.
@@fevans2366 Finish Line.
@@michaelelliott8902 thx
Got these boots back in 2012, the upper is durable if you treat it right, but the sole broke after 10 years & mine got resoled with leather midsole + vibram outsole… Very worth the single penny for 11 years & still counting…
Nice!!!
I’m the same way, frugal as hell. Beans and rice, rice and beans. But everyone should own a few good pair of boots.
Thanks and I’m glad someone out there understand my spending habits. I have boots and shoes I’ve owned for years. I usually sleep on the pending ‘cost’ I’m about to expend when buying shoes. My wife thinks I’m cheap but I rarely buy anything “cheap” if you know what I mean. Thanks for watching!
helpful
I bought my tims for the utilitarian use. These look nice, how would I maintenence them? Should I polish them? The website says renewbuck but these don't look like suede/nubuck. Is leather conditioner enough if not polish?
Hi, I only use conditioner for this one. I clean it with a damp rag and condition. I have used a water repellent spray on it before just to protect it from the rain.
Great looking boots👍👍 Thinking about buying a pair. They do run true to size?
I agree that’s why I kept it around. They do run true to size. I’m an 11.5 and this fits real good. Now I usually wear a D on other boots and I’m not sure if they offer this in any other size (ie.. ee).
They definitely do *NOT* run true to size. I just purchased a pair today, and had to get a full size smaller than I usually wear. 11.5 down to 10.5. They fit great otherwise!
@@briarconner5765 Congratulations and enjoy! I haven’t checked out the newest ones and I wonder if anything changed.
@@StylishGreaseMonkey it’s definitely strange that our experience is so different! I hope either way it runs everyone can get a decent boot that fits well. Thanks!
the old ones ran true to size but the modern ones run large i wear a 11-11.5 and had to get a 10.5
Nice review. Seems like a decent looking boot and I’m glad yours are holding out. I have owned Timberlands in the past and they have all fallen apart on me (not very surprising for $.65 an hour).
IMO, you’re better off spending the extra cash on some Thorogood 1892s or Red Wing Heritage. You’ll have them for life!
Thanks! I’ve wondered that myself. I’ve looked up some reviews for this boots lately and almost half didn’t have my luck as well. I agree with you in regards to the TG and RW. But for the price point, these particular ones surprised me.
Do they have a gusset tongue to prevent dust and things going down inside the boots from the front?
Never had that problem. The tongue is tight and pretty much seals in when laced.
No
Are these good for cuffing your jeans? Or are they more work boot style vs iron ranger style
I have worn it with cuffed jeans before and did okay. I didn’t tie the laces all the way and had it loose.
Are these good for landscaping? Like will the bottoms of the boots hold up good to mud/dirt etc
I don’t recommend it. I use an old RW 1907 for yard work and it is sturdier.
@@StylishGreaseMonkey I’ve actually had boots like those but i feel like those insoles wear out pretty quickly and mud/water eats thru them and chunks start coming out
What color?
What color did you get them in?
Medium brown. I know it looks like wheat but it’s not.
is it Goodyear welted construction or just cement construction?
Upon closer inspection, there appears to be a stitch all around to what appears to be a strip of leather. But then again I am not the expert on Goodyear welts. There is a high probability of it being “glued” or cemented to the welt at the price point. It is still a tough bugger though! 😜
@@StylishGreaseMonkey
Thanks for your quick reply. you can remove the insole of the boot and look if you can find stitch all around.
I removed the insert/insole and there’s a hard composite material glued on the foot bed not allowing me to view the inside bottom of the boots.
@@StylishGreaseMonkey
I think it's a cement construction. I like this model, very comfortable, height quality leather but it hasn't good quality construction not as good as the stitch construction.
Completely cemented construction. Many models have fake welts.
good for winter?
I have worn it in snow but I was cold! Not good in cold weather. You can wear thick wool socks and it may be good.
I never really got into Timberland boots I was more or a Doc Martin or red wing
I’ve always liked the Doc but never bought one. Maybe that’ll be my next boots. Thanks!
@@StylishGreaseMonkey Ive had the same pair for 15 years now when the bottoms wear out i just take them to the shoe cobbler and get them repaired , buy one day soon those people will be gone they a a dyeing bread
In my opinion Red Wing too rough style (work boot), a little bit weird to wear it for daily, hang out etc. Timberland more versatile.
@@tobapiggery2951 I agree somewhat. It depends on your environment. If you’re lifestyle is about motorcycles and cafe racers or you live in an urban setting then maybe the Iron Ranger rocks. Certainly not a mall or city thing. Just my .02 cents. That’s probably why I ended up with so many boots!
@@tobapiggery2951 Ive never had any timberland boots but i like there sunglasses
Are they waterproof?
Sorry not really!
How could you keep them for so long?
I still have them! Just take care of it and have dedicated work boots.
You look like Alex Rodrigues
I get that at times. I have a beard and slick back hair now… Thanks!
That back strap is so weak. Literally snapped off while trying to squeeze my feet in.
Lol, this has happened to me as well on a different pair. Best to take some time to loosen up the laces really good. I haven’t had issues with this one. 👌
Are you Derek Jeter’s brother?
Lol, I get that from time to time as well as "are you A-Rod"? I'll take that as a complement anytime. I also wish I have their wealth haha! Thanks for being here, please subscribe if you haven't done so! Love lots! 🤘
Are these Waterproof?
Not really. I used one of those water repellent spray to protect it but it is not waterproof.
@@StylishGreaseMonkey mmmm alright, do you know if the Timberland pro Moc is waterproof? The leather version!
@@macibasti I’m sorry but I have not owned one of those yet. Are you looking for something that will keep your feet dry for an extended amount of time in the rain or snow? I use my Danner military boots for working in my yard during muddy rain and it keeps my socks dry. None of them really are waterproof but maybe water repellent to an extent. I did mention that I wore the earthkeeper on snow with thick socks and it kept it dry. It was an all day thing and at the end of the day, water started to seep in. Hope this helps.
@@StylishGreaseMonkey for the rain. Because rain season is coming and it rains everyday for like 6 months
Wheat not yellow sir.
Right, sorry…
Nice boots but no Goodyear welted it's concrete ,,
You’re right! Thanks!
dude wearing timbs during summer time yikes! here in sweden we were them at winter when it-s -25
Pay attention when you travel.. People all over the world do things that you don’t do in Sweden.
@@OrcinusLaryngologist nah its only americans
@@ksiazepaweek1064 as he said, “style is subjective” 🤷♂️
yeah so does the sensastion of heat@@OrcinusLaryngologist
But it's still one of the most american thing I've seen apart from the fact that he made 9:20 video of beating around the bush which could be abstracted into short @@OrcinusLaryngologist
Wow, I thought I was cheap already. Dude for a pair of boots that's gonna serve you well for a couple of years you find 150$ expensive? You're ridiculous.
Believe it or not, I did not own shoes that cost me more than a hundred bucks before this purchase (2013). My wife bought it for me. Now, the most expensive boots I own is around $400 bucks. Oh yes, I still think anything over $100 is too expensive lol. I lived a hard life as a young man so I don’t like spending money. If not for my wife, I would still be buying shoes from thrift stores. Thanks.
