Timberland Mens Greenstride Originals Ultra Waterproof Boots Review: The Best Hiking + Winter Boots?
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- As an avid outdoors person, I wanted boots that would be comfortable, waterproof and tough for multiple environments and seasons.
Enter the Timberland’s GREENSTRIDE™ ORIGINALS ULTRA WATERPROOF BOOTS that caught my attention
What makes the Greenstride different from Timberlands most popular products is the fact that it has:
• TimberDry A waterproof membrane made with at least 50% recycled plastic
• ReBOTL™ an innovative method of recycling discarded plastic bottles by transforming them into RPET (recycled polyethylene terephthalate) yarns

I recently purchased some Timberland TBL Greenstride Edge Sneaker Boots (model A6849). I use them for walking in my neighborhood and general wear. I love the way they look.
These Timbs are the most comfortable, best looking boots I have ever worn. I have the light tan, two pairs and the green and black, as I use them more as a fashion than hiking. The waterproof function is amazing, when you slide you feet into this boot, it feels like your foot is getting a nice warm hug! Great job Timberland, every where I go people comment and ask about my Timbs!
Agreed. Thanks for watching.
David, thank you for this well done review! As the designer of this boot, I found your wear test and production thoroughly done. Excellent work!
Thanks John, glad you liked it!
If you really did design this boot, thanks because they are my favourite and I wear them all the time, they look great and I’ve had random people in the supermarket and bank tell me they love them
Thanks Seqhael, much appreciated and the kind words! Glad you like them. I designed the initial Greenstride Originals Ultra as a collection of three: this boot, an Originals Ultra Waterproof Chukka, and Originals Ultra Chelsea.
Thank you for these Timberlands, as with most boots I know these will be retired soon, I have the 6inch and the one he reviews here, by far the best quality, best looking and my favorite of all time. At 57 I can pull this off and make a great impression.
These boots are gorgeous! Are they good to take on hikes???
I bought the Chukka version of this boots and it's the most comfortable boots I have ever worn. I wanted to buy an extra pair in case my first one broke. Then I saw this video and didn't know that there is a high cut version. Great review! You made me buy this one and now I own 2 pairs in different version.
Glad you liked it and thanks for watching.
This is really a remarkable review and hats off to the high quality and great editing of the video. Well done guys and this video deserves to get many views!
Thanks Jay!
Just come across this channel as I was looking for a review on this shoe. I never comment on CZcams but seriously this is a great review. I usually skip most of the content in these type of reviews too but I didn't here. You could probably do really well as a shoe review channel, take my like!
Thanks for the kind words Nathan.
Wow, what a very well done review. This is awesome. I think Timberland should pay you some commission for this good work. Would love to buy these boots.
Agreed. Thanks for watching Matthew and Grace.
Whoa. There was some insane attention to detail in this review! Very much appreciated! Reviews for shoes are too often 'They look good' which isn't why I'd look something up. I was about to leave a comment saying that i'm definitely coming back here for all future shoe reviews as I figured your channel had to be a specialist show channel. but when I checked it was your only one haha. Amazing. I tend to only buy shoes once every few years, so I likely wouldn't have been giving you lots of views, but I just wanted to say thank you!
Thanks for the kind words Kieran. I might do more footwear reviews in the near future so stay tuned
That's a professional review... if you keep reviewing all the shoes like this way then you would succeed and gain respectful number of subs..
Thanks Imed. Check out my other review on the Nortiv8s hiking boots.
Great review! Just ordered a pair of these! They have 50% off at the moment! So only £95
Thanks for watching.
@@dvampofohow would you advise these are cleaned? Esp when dirty with mud/dirt?
I have these in black and wear them a lot for the past 2 years. My favourite shoes for comfort and style but it takes a long time to put them on compared to low shoes.
Nice. Thanks for watching Mikke.
What are they like for keeping clean? Looking for a pair for general walking but also dog walks.
Insanely excellent video and fantastically thorogh detail, amazing review, thank you good sir
Thanks for watching.
I just place an order cause of hour video and because this design is AWESOME!
Agreed. Thanks for watching.
amazing video, very thorough and incredibly helpful, i tip my hat to you sir!
Thanks for watching.
Thanks, great review. I am ordering the black one : D
Thanks for watching.
Because i have 7 styles of Timbs except this one here on this review i would start HIGHLY recommending the "Timberland Anti Fatigue Insoles", they are expensive but i dont like ANY other insoles, they are life changing. I wasn't convinced about these style and now i want them! Im not gonna go for a walk in the woods with them (i have the steel toe Generation T PRO for that) but definitely are worth it (i dont think they are made for climbing or as work boots, more like casual if you like hard strides like i do)! Great video and Review. New SUB! (I think people sometimes abuse these boots too much and expect to last whatever and think they are amazingly well built and with extreme quality but obviously there are some cares you need to take)!
Agreed on the importance of boot maintenance. T
@@dvampofoTotally, great video!! 👍🏻
@@dvampofo what's the heel height on these
i bought them yesterday and today they started make sounds when i walk
Excellent review. And lucky me found on DSW website for only $110!!
Bro its a excellent review! thank you! I order them now :D
Thanks for watching.
excellent presentation, thank you for the video. how warm are they!?? my feet are always cold. maybe some recommendation
They hold up pretty well up to -15C when you also wear thick wool socks.
Thanks for watching.
Nice video! This is the review I am looking for. Thanks!

Very nice editing and review. You should have more subs.
Appreciate it. Like, subscribe and share with your family to help me reach that goal (Thanks in advance if you do this!)
Very good looking boots! 🔥
Thanks for watching Kevin
I just ordered online with 40% discount here in the UK. 🙂
Nice. Thanks for watching. Like and subscribe.
Great review, had all the info I wanted!
Thanks for watching Ryan.
thanks for the test. I got my pair yesterday.
One thing is very disappointing: the material inside the heel area will tear apart after a while.
It is not solid, there should be leather layer or a stronger piece of material to protect from putting on and off.
Thanks for sharing Rene
How often do you wear them . I'm thinking about purchasing them but wasn't sure about the durability. That material on the inside made me unsure because it looked more like a Terry cloth interior than sturdier materials.
@@bobbyonasis I wear them nearly every day when I walk with my dog. They are very comfortable to walk.
But I have doubts that they last very long because of the material used inside.
@ thanks, how long would you say you've had them? a year is pretty good for everyday use. Anything less than that I'm kinda unsure.
@@bobbyonasis i do own the since 4 weeks.
For more durability i would choose Redwing (Sawmill, Moctoe...). I discovered also a new brand for me, called Hanwag (Hans 100)
That is great. Thank you for the work!
Thanks for watching Johnathan.
What a great review, thank you.
Thanks for watching.
Nice review. Thank you 💗
Very nice review
Thanks for watching.
Awesome review! So many fine details, especially the driving part which I didn’t even consider. How is the sizing? If I wear 10.5 for Nike/Adidas what do you think I’d be?
Thanks for watching Taylor. You'd be a size 11 (US). The half inch will give you extra space if you want to wear thick socks and avoid having sore toes from hitting the front of the boot.
I currently have them... In 43.5 and 44. Don't know wich one to send back. That'd be 9.5W us or UK 9 and and 10W/L or UK 9.5. my "real" size is 43 (you know, real leather shoes) but with sneakers it's usually 44. My other Timberland are 44 (10). But these boots are very strange, my feet clearly fit better on the inside sole. Sits on it perfectly with the 43.5 (9.5L). But the boot is a bit tight even if it gets better after some time. With the 44 (10 L/W as it says on the box) it's like my foot arch isn't placed in the right place for these boots. They seem a bit too long for me. Yet for the rest, I'm more comfortable in them, easier to put on. Now to make it trickier... Compared the inside soles to my othe Timberland and sneakers and trekking boots... Clearly the 44 seems the same size as my other 44. Yet when in the boots... My toes are way further from the tips, they have way more space than in my other shoes. These boots are confusing 🤗. If people here have experience with them. I'd be curious to know what size they took compared to what they usually wear. Ordered two pairs on sale... Thinking I'd know after a single try wich to send back... Now I know less then before 😂
I am weirdly a 10 or 10.5 on the field trekker low, but 8.5 on the chukka and 8 on slipons. How do these fit? I have 26.5cm feet.
Hi MotorJack. I'd recommend that you go have a size up so you have max comfort.
I say this because if you wear thin crew socks or thick wool socks, your feet will have the necessary space in the toe/front of the boot so your feet wont experience tightness (could be a different story if you have wide _and_ long feet).
Hope this helps.
@@dvampofo half size up from whatever says 26.5cm on the chart? My my field trekker low it already says 28.5cm but fits me but kind of tight on my right foot pinky side.
Can you suggest between the following 2 boots , sorry I cant put links so you might have to search these shoes : Men's Timberland® Originals Ultra Waterproof Boot ....VS.... Heritage 6-Inch Rubber Toe Boot .... Both look so good , both are in discount .... one has the same outsole as this one in the video... both look good interms of waterproofing... please suggest or discuss ideas .... it would be very helpful.
I've checked both and to be honest, it comes down to your budget and what you find aesthetically pleasing.
The Heritage has the rubber component and PrimaLoft insulation, so it looks solid for very wet climates. How it'll hold up for winter? I dont know.
The Originals are still still going strong, but the pull-on strap on the back has ripped from the boot, but my feet are still warm in them from the snow and cold (as stated in the review, Im wearing warm wool socks)
I hope this helps.
@@dvampofo What about the outsoles.... you did make a point in your video regarding the outsoles of originals being better.
Good review
Thanks for watching. Like & subscribe.
Hello! Thank you for the great video, you really tried, well done!
I have one question: are the shoes warm for winter days? (-10c ~ -20c)
Best regards!
Yes they're warm for winter as I stated. The key thing is to wear thick wool socks in them.
@@dvampofo Thanks a lot man!
Keep it up 👍🙋🏻♂️
hello, fantastic review, thank you! I wanted to ask you if after this time with them have you had any problem of deterioration of the upper part of the boot that is like leather - leatherette and is in constant contact with the trousers? thanks!!
Yes, theres observable deterioration of that leatherette part. Mostly on the pull-on strap section which I use all the time.
I think if I never ever pulled on it, it wouldn't have deteriorated.
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for your reply! I was surprised by the quality of the video/review, you should continue on this path if you like it
@@gerardgomez36 Will do. Check out the newer videos on this channel and let me know what you think.
Already falling appart after a few weeks. The black protective between the leather and the sole has started to crack. The sole is starting to come unstuck from the rest if the boot. What a mistake I made in buying these.
Thanks for sharing Stefanos.
Great review, thanks. Looks like they are better suited as ski/winter casual boots than proper rocky terrain hiking boots.
Pretty much. Thanks for watching.
I am obsessed with this shoes but they're always unavailable, and when they are, only for some hours cause they sell very fast. I have been to 4 stores and they never have them in my size😭😭
Thanks for sharing Marcin.
Try Patagonia after the holidays. They also sell slightly used at unbelievable rates . That's where I purchased my earthkeepers for $80usd new.
Is this durable as much as the heritage leather boots ? And can these be resoled ?
I've noticed that around the mouth of the boot, there's wear and tear now. I don't think these could be resoled with Vibram, but you need to check with your local footwear repair specialist.
Thanks for watching.
Спасибо!
Hello, are these boots quite durable? Unfortunately I’ve seen a lot of reviews on the timberland website and buyers say that they fall apart in some areas. A shame otherwise because I love the look of the boot.
Yes, its durable when you treat it with care. I havent had the experience of it falling apart.
Thanks for watching. Like and subscribe.
This is not good for summer?
Is there a design like that for summer?
Check out my review on the Black Timberland boots.
Those would be better suited for warmer weather IMO
Are they suitable for -30 winter?
If you're spending a lot of time outside in -30C (even with thick wool socks on), I think you'd be pushing it to be honest, So Im going err on the side of caution and say no.
Are these good for people with wide feet?
Im not too sure to be honest. The boot is pretty narrow in design so its a comfy fit that just works best for me, but you need to check if theres a wide option available.
Thanks for watching.
Were these greenstride timberlands that you reviewed in snow still working well in winter or not.
Yup, still wearing them to this day. They're still working well in winter so far by keeping the cold and moisture out.
Thanks for watching.
@@dvampofo Do these have good grip?
How many degrees was at the moment 8:36
It was around -14C to -18C with wind blowing.
Thanks for watching.
Donde la puedo consegir
How to order online? And could u give me a legit store where I could order thank u
I usually wear 12.5 (30.5) and rarely 13 (31) in nike, my foot measures 29.3 cm, what size would you recommend, these would be my first timberland, pdst there are no 12.5 in timberland: c
Half a size up, so 31. hope this helps
Do you have a link to this exact boot and colorway?
No, I dont.
How much height do these give you?
About an 1 inch or 2.54 cm.
Thanks for watching, like and subscribe.
@@dvampofo owh wow didnt expect a reply... Thanks so much :)
Also, do you think this gives more height than the original 6 inch timberlands?
Im 5"9 so gotta reach the double digits 💀
How to take care of them
You can buy the standard leather boot cleaning kit. That'll preserve the leather and keep them looking young. Also, use shoe trees so they keep their shape.
Thanks for watching, like and subscribe.
Is this shoe lighter than the timberland Radford?
Hard to tell, just because the Greenstride's weight isnt listed like the Radfords.
My fit is 10 i want got this shoes but i dont know make order 10 or 10.5
Go half a size up, so 10.5
@@dvampofo thanks bro 👍
@@dvampofo half a size up or down? I’m reading online that we should go half a size down for these shoes
Will it fit for wide feet?
I think there may be a wide option. Otherwise, these narrow size may be uncomfortable for long periods of time.
Thanks for watching.
The fit ??
How do these do in the snow and winter cold
fine with thick wool socks
@@dvampofo so no wet foot? Or cold foot in winter?
