FAQs

What materials are the Timberland Field Trekker boots made from?

These boots feature a premium nubuck leather upper, a ReBOTL™ fabric lining (containing at least 50% recycled PET plastic), an OrthoLite® footbed, a compression-molded EVA midsole, and a rubber lug outsole.

Are these boots waterproof?

The boots are treated with Defender Repellent Systems® for enhanced water and stain resistance, offering protection against light rain and splashes. They are not fully waterproof and not intended for immersion in water.

How do I clean the nubuck leather?

Use a nubuck brush to remove dry dirt. For tougher marks, a nubuck eraser can be effective. For wet stains, blot immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water. Reapply a protective spray periodically.

Can I use these boots for serious hiking?

The Timberland Field Trekker boots are designed for everyday wear and light outdoor activities, offering good comfort and grip. For serious or challenging hiking trails, specialized hiking boots with more robust support and deeper treads would be more suitable.

What is ReBOTL™ fabric?

ReBOTL™ fabric is a material used in Timberland products that contains at least 50% recycled PET plastic (recycled plastic bottles). It's part of Timberland's commitment to sustainability.

What does Defender Repellent Systems® do?

Defender Repellent Systems® is a treatment applied to the boots that provides advanced protection against water, oil, and common stains, helping to keep your footwear looking newer for longer and easier to clean.

Are these boots true to size?

Timberland boots generally fit true to size. However, fit can vary slightly based on individual foot shape. It's recommended to try them on or refer to Timberland's sizing guide if unsure.

What types of occasions are these boots suitable for?

These boots are highly versatile, ideal for a range of casual settings, smart-casual outfits, and light outdoor activities such as city exploration, walks in the park, or everyday wear.

Troubleshooting

Boots appear dirty or stained after light use.

Gently brush off dry dirt with a nubuck brush. For more stubborn marks, use a nubuck eraser. For wet stains, blot immediately. Consider reapplying a protective spray regularly to enhance water and stain resistance.

Feet feel uncomfortable or sore after extended wear.

Ensure your lacing is not too tight or too loose; adjust for optimal comfort and support. If new, allow a short break-in period for the boots to conform to your feet. Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks for cushioning and moisture-wicking.

Boots feel slippery on certain wet surfaces.

While the rubber lug outsole provides good grip, no shoe is completely slip-proof. Check the outsole for excessive wear. On very slick or icy surfaces, exercise caution as the tread may not provide sufficient traction for all conditions.

Nubuck leather looks faded or dull.

After cleaning with a nubuck brush, you can use a nubuck conditioner specifically designed to restore the material's color and texture. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Timberland Field Trekker boots, especially given their nubuck leather construction.

  1. Initial Protection: While equipped with Defender Repellent Systems®, consider applying a suitable nubuck and suede protector spray before first wear for extra defense against water and stains.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a nubuck brush to gently remove dry dirt and dust. For tougher spots, a nubuck eraser can be effective. Always brush in one direction.
  3. Stain Removal: For wet stains, blot immediately with a clean cloth. For oil-based stains, a specialized nubuck cleaner may be required. Always test cleaning products on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If your boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and maintain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources (like radiators or direct sunlight), as excessive heat can damage the leather.
  5. Conditioning: Periodically use a nubuck conditioner to restore moisture and maintain the leather's suppleness. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
  6. Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape and absorb moisture.
  7. Defender Repellent Systems® Maintenance: The repellent treatment may diminish over time. Reapply a suitable water and stain repellent periodically, especially after cleaning or exposure to harsh weather conditions.
