FAQs
How do I clean my Timberland Field Trekker boots?
For routine cleaning, use a nubuck brush to remove loose dirt and dust. For tougher stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaning solution. Always test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area first. Allow them to air dry completely.
Are these boots waterproof?
The Timberland Field Trekker boots are made from nubuck leather, which is not naturally waterproof. For water resistance, it is highly recommended to treat them with a quality nubuck protector spray. They are designed for general wear, not for heavy rain or submersion.
What size should I order?
These boots are generally true to size according to standard UK adult sizing. However, if you are between sizes or plan to wear thick socks, you might consider sizing up by half a size. Refer to Timberland's official size guide for precise measurements.
Can I replace the laces?
Yes, the laces are replaceable. You can find replacement laces that match the original length and style or choose a different colour for a personalized look. The original laces feature a black and white contrast.
How do I protect the nubuck leather from stains?
Before wearing your boots, apply a quality nubuck and suede protector spray evenly over the entire surface. Reapply periodically, especially after cleaning or if you notice water no longer beads on the surface. This helps create a barrier against water and stains.
Are these boots suitable for hiking?
While the Field Trekker boots offer good traction and support, they are designed more for casual and semi-formal urban environments or light outdoor use. For rigorous hiking or challenging terrain, specialized hiking boots would be more appropriate.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff or uncomfortable during initial wear.
This is common with new leather boots. Allow a break-in period by wearing them for shorter durations initially. Ensure laces are adjusted for a snug, but not tight, fit. Wear appropriate socks for cushioning.
Nubuck leather looks dull or has minor scuffs.
Gently brush the affected areas with a dedicated nubuck brush to lift the nap and remove surface dirt. For deeper scuffs, a specialized nubuck eraser can be used sparingly. Always follow up with a nubuck protector spray.
The boots do not seem to repel water effectively.
While nubuck offers some natural resistance, these boots are not fully waterproof out-of-the-box. Apply a high-quality nubuck and suede waterproofing spray before first use and reapply periodically, especially if you anticipate exposure to wet conditions.
Laces frequently come undone.
Ensure you are using a secure knot, such as a double knot. If the laces are worn, consider replacing them with new, more durable laces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & First Wear
- Lacing: Unlace the boots sufficiently to easily slide your foot in.
- Fit: Ensure your heel is comfortably seated at the back of the boot. There should be a thumb's width space between your longest toe and the end of the boot.
- Adjust: Tighten the laces evenly from the bottom upwards, ensuring a snug but not overly constricting fit around your foot and ankle. The cushioned collar should feel supportive.
- Break-in: Wear your boots for short periods initially to allow the leather to conform to your foot shape, gradually increasing wear time.
Compatibility
These boots are highly versatile. The grey nubuck leather pairs well with:
- Casual wear: Jeans, cargo pants, hoodies, t-shirts.
- Smart casual: Chinos, corduroys, button-down shirts, light sweaters.
The mid-rise silhouette works well both over and under trouser hems, depending on your preferred style.
Care & Maintenance
Proper care for nubuck leather is crucial to maintain its appearance and longevity:
- Cleaning: Regularly brush off dirt and dust with a soft bristled nubuck brush. For stains, use a specialized nubuck cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or water saturation.
- Protection: Apply a quality nubuck protector spray before first wear and periodically thereafter to repel water and stains. Note that this may slightly alter the texture or shade of the nubuck.
- Drying: If boots get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and let them air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
