I've had my timberland "EK Chillberg" winter boot for 5+ years in harsh canadian winter that drops to -30. its a pretty good boot for the price! and the sole is only starting to peel off at the heel. not bad for around $120 when i got it.

I own both and love them both. But once it really starts getting cold my Tim’s are my go to boot for these Cleveland winters. Great video man.

Mr. Rose Anvil! I am VERY down to collaborate, I've actually been trying to work out how long it takes to get from NYC to Logan to see if it's feasible :) Wanna e-mail me, nick at stridewise.com? And yes, of course I prefer the Red Wings - i especially feel lucky to have them with this cork sole!

Superb reviews! My Tims are my first pair. My first impression was that while they have nice grip & shock absorption, they were too stiff. This changed with wear. They are now as comfortable as sneakers! Warm and dry, even when hiking in slush, as well!

Great info on both boots and comparison of the two and answered my questions about wear and tear fit, slippage and material used. Thanks for creating this one, looking forward the others you mentioned at the end. In all very informative my boot wearing brother, nice work....

I've worn my timbs for a few years now through some pretty harsh winters, and ive hiked through some serious snow up in new england, had them sprayed with some waterproofer and they still look great and keep your feet really warm, dont think anything could come close to warmth, that being said I save them just for winter wear cause they're quite well made for that, theyre grippy and theyve gotten pretty comfy over the years as well, that being said I got my self some thursday captains for rest of the year wear

Thank you for mentioning the glued sole of the Timberland boot. I will never get a glued sole boot again; had bad experience with a Wolverine brand boot which was also glued.

Wow, I'm glad this video popped up now, I just purchased (yesterday) my Red Wing Iron Rangers same color as this one in the review, and I plan to get mea pair of the black leather later. Thank you Nick!

Enjoyed the video. I wear "Timberland" mainly to work in the yard. I am new to learning about Red Wing boots. They seem awesome as well. 👍🏼

As a bootmaker who worked for Timberland for seven years in R&D. Brilliant video! Not easy to compare two completely different boots and bring them to the same level ground. The Timberland has a rubber sole, it has a direct-attached PVC or TPR (depending on the model) midsole. PVC = Poly Vinyl Chloride, TPR = Thermo Plastic Rubber. Some models now have PU (Polyurethane) midsoles. These are not cemented, the material is melted then shot into a mould with the lasted upper already on top. As the melted material cools it forms to the shape of the mold and attaches to the bottom of the lasted upper. The shank is pre-attached to the bottom of the insole. if you see Rose Anvil's video where he cuts open a pair of Timberland boots kzread.info/dash/bejne/d4J9u7KumNa8Zrg.html you will see that the model Rose Anvil uses has a different sole. That sole is 100% cemented sole and does not have a midsole. The boot model used in this video is the direct-injected version. A direct-injected boot, where the midsole is fused to the upper provides far superior protection against water than a cemented boot. A cemented boot is more prone to sole separation than a direct-attached boot. To get an idea how the midsole is direct-attached please see this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eJeksdmKp62WnJc.html

Well, I happen to have the classic 6-inch Timberland boots in leather, heritage style. So they have aged nicely over the 15+ years I've worn them, and I used an wax and oil to maintain. Also I've just had mine resoled by one of the few cobblers that do it here in the UK. They grind down the sole, then stitch and cement in a leather midsole. Then stick/cement on a Vibram lug sole, which can then replaced when needed - so far so good!

I grew up in NE during the 90's and the only work boot I knew of was the Timberland. Now I'm not familiar with the Iron Ranger but I did switch to Redwing work boots when I had a nail go through my Timberland's "puncture resistant" sole and the quality difference between the brands in night and day. I don't think I'll be going back to Timberland anytime soon.

Hey Nick, hope that all is well with you. As usual, you’ve produced another stellar review/comparison of the Red Wing Vs. Timberland. It looks like there are a couple of important pros and cons between the two boots. The first being the cost, with the Red Wing almost double the cost of Timberland. Next is longevity, with the Red Wing utilizing a Goodyear Welt certainly gives it the edge in this category. After that, I’d think that it might come down to style. I’m an older guy, and this is contrary to your findings/suggestions, etc. as I kind of prefer the look of the Timberland. The bulbous toe of the Red Wing is a bit of a turn off for me. I’d prefer my Allen Edmond’s Higgins Mill, which as you know, is somewhat similar stylistically to the Red Wing. I’m curious as to whether you’d prefer your Red Wing or AE’s Higgins Mill? Thanks for taking the time to create this very informative video Nick. Keep up the great work my friend! ...Ed

Great video! I used to buy Tims back in the 80s for work because they were cheap compared to actual work boots and it left me more money to party. It was sorta like the Brahmas of Walmart today. I installed in ground pools back then and they didn’t hold up well but I was to cheap to buy real boots plus I did think they were cool. I broke down and bought Diehard Boots in a similar style from Sears back then and they held up 3 times as long so I stuck with them.

The tan ones look good at any age. Im 32 and have my tan boots for the winter. The trick is to actually lace them up so they look like boots and not Hipster Slippers.

I used to have 2 pairs of timberlands, one was some eco model I bought 10 years a go made environmental friendly and didn’t last the whole fall/winter season. The sole started to peel off after 2 months of everyday wear. Then I got the Euro hiker, which was much better and lasted a bit more then a whole season. My Red Wings are lasting much longer then the 2 pairs of a timberlands all together. The downside of the Red Wings: not an easy fit, break in can be hard and they’re not insulated so better wear some warms socks when it’s really cold.

Great review mate... stay safe, remain Amazing....

My Tims that I purchased in 2002 were just re-soled. If the mid-sole is still in good shape the sole can be separated and replace. My cobbler used glue and nails the add the new soles.

I own several pair of Timb's I bought about 18 years ago. I've been very happy with them. Since my feet have grown a bit, and my arch is starting to bother me, I'm largely retiring them. Construction, landscaping, mechanical, snow, sightseeing, etc. I'm about to leapfrog Red Wing completely and buy a pair of Frank's. Red Wing's cult-like following has always amused & interested me. No doubt they are quality. Quality materials, handmade USA, cork midsoles, but are they really better than a pair of Timb's functionally? Or is it more status. I feel like most of the Red Wing fans commenting in this thread are largely white collar middle class.

They both do a good job of standing behind their product.

ahhh nice, im from NYC, i own both pair of boots....i love the redwings good look however tims last longer. i ride a Harley Davidson too (all year round) i had my tims 18 years look gritty but the soul is in tac. the red wings the soul wore out in two years and on both the redwings i own as my tim's are still going. redwings are for dressing up, tims rugged is ready for wear and tear.

Team Red Wing go! Thanks for the vid, Nick... would you mind elaborating on the conditioner you applied to the Iron Rangers to darken them? I love the almost black chocolate color from the conditioning + wear, wouldn't mind going that route.

What do you think about the Timberland Courma Guy boots? Just ordered them in middle brown eal and they are actually insanely cool.

I've had a pair of Timberlands, though in a different color, for a while and I just got a pair of Iron Rangers. I love the looks of the Iron Ranger so much more and I already didn't wear my Timberlands hardly at all. The Iron Ranger cost a lot more but I think they are worth it. My only complaint would be about the soles on the Iron Ranger. On one of the first times I wore them I busted my ass on some ice that was on the porch of the cabin I was staying at. It might be because they were brand new and not scuffed up yet but I feel the grip on the Timberland is better. I will not normally be in icy conditions so not a big deal. Great review and comparison.

I can attest the Tim’s from the 90s last forever. I wore them for construction and put it through hell for years then put it to semi retirement for a while. The shoes laces out lasted the leather. Never had to change them. Loving my IR now.

I used to like Timberland and Wolverine, but now I prefer combat style boots. Super durable, flexible and great padding and cushion. RW and all the old style boots may be durable and well made, but they have horrible tread and grip in real world ruff use. There are times when I know I would have taken a fall if I had a slick leather sole like the RW.

My IR have been a faithful motorcycle boot on a daily basis for 6 years and are going strong. Previous boots would barely last a year before the shifter wore through the toe. I've never tried the Timberland, but the IR is tough as nails and "old school comfortable" if you know what I mean. If I were to leave Redwing it would be for Nick's, not Timberland.

I love Timbs for sure, own three pairs now. But not too sure about the waterproof claim. Wore a pair of classic yellow on my 10-day trip to Tokyo and Kyoto in 2017 during late typhoon season/early fall, and my timbs leaked water from the upper (never got them fully submerged, only got rained on or stepped in puddles). At first it got damp, and after a few days it came to a point where my socks were constantly wet/damp. To be fair, it's a 4-year pair so perhaps the leather leaked here and there? Still love them though.

I tried on my first pair of work style boots today. Timberlands. I didn't find them very comfortable or cushioned - nothing like Salomon walking boots. I think i'd like something that looked good with jeans for causal wear yet had the comfort and cushioning of a walking boot.

90's block boys enjoyed this "debate", but we're in our 40's now so IR in a landslide.

I live in NYC, and I have both, I have to admit Timbs are WAY warmer in the wintertime. Also, A lot of people here saying that Redwings are a "working boot, and a real working man boot" Umm, no, mostly hipsters here in NYC go crazy and orgasm all over Redwings and Wolverines, while my father, an elevator mechanic (and many ppl who do manual labor jobs) wears Timbs daily. I do believe they are the better WORK boot, as they are shock absorbant, there is no break-in period, and they can easily be worn during wintertime/outside work, and it's worth their price. HOWEVER, Redwings are the boot to be worn around the city, to go on dates, and just a very good casual boot. Beautiful and way more attractive for sure, but I would not say it's a "real work man's boot." Either way, awesome review of both!

For my foot type no Red Wings would fit me. Timberland has never let me down. From the pit boss that has a sole that bends a nail if you step on it, the laces do not fray and they include another lace if that day comes, these are 100 percent water proof. Earthkeepers have been wonderful and very comfortable.

The Tims are real winter boots and the soles are grippy enough for Proper mountain hiking. My first pair are still intact after more than 2000 miles, no resole and no conditioning. Insane. The sole possibly lasted because most use was on snow. BUT the lining leather is worn through and they look ugly. Tims are amazing in terms of value, especially if you buy them on sales. I'm not sure if it's possible for my iron rangers to last twice as long but I hope they will remain beautiful a lot longer. :)

Are you speaking of brands or the 2 boots being compared in the video? IR's are not work boots. Quality is an interesting word in-and-of itself. Red Wing is handmade in USA, using better leathers, and a more conforming mid-sole. Certainly more expensive to make, and certainly better materials. But does the Timb stand up to just as much AND is waterproof? Yes, so if quality is how they stand up and function for work, then no, the IR isn't better.

Red Wings IR are so much more versatile, dress up, dress down, office work, street wear, can't go wrong with it. Can't say the same for the Tims. I've had my RW Moc Toe for 6 years and on the second resole, just picked up an IR and breaking them in now. Should've bought these much sooner.

I'd like to see them after a year of working with Acrylic finish or Substrate cement, if they're still working boots. I'm a Journeyman Plaster with 10 years of experience.

You might also be intersted to learn that a major factor to the boot's popluarity across Europe is down to the Paninaro youth tribe from 80s Italy. Timberlands were an essential element of the Paninaro wardrobe.

I dont own Redwings yet, but I do own premium waterproof tims and i like them a lot. I like that they have sturdy sidewalls and have great traction in snow. u can lace them up tight or wear them untied and they hold their shape well. I prefer to Iace them up tight and tuck my jeans over them. It is nice though when ur going to run a quick errand and u can slip them on in 5 seconds and wear them loose. They are heavy, but I would classify it as sturdy, bcs the weight is no problem to me. If you live on the 12th floor with no elevator, it might be a problem 🤷‍♀️ . The nubuck color does get dirty fast, but they are boots and I don't really care about that.

Redwings is the best for sure ! It’s like comparing Mercedes Benz S Class to a Toyota Yaris .

I personally love every brand

Never thought I’d hear nick say deadass 😂

I had four pairs sent them back because of sole splitting from upper on all of them .They were made in the Dominican Republic ,I had great trouble getting a refund from the Timberland shop and they tried to persuade me to accept an item of clothing rather than the money refund.The whole process took six months to get a cash refund ! I now have Caterpillar Colorado's which don't split due to Goodyear welt,of course the Red wing is a superior boot !

Redwing... No questions asked

Is it available in India

I’m amazed that people call these boots, “work boots”? In the uk, you wouldn’t be allowed on site in either boots as you require steel toe caps. Do people in the US really work on site in timbs? However, If I had to choose a pair, I’d go for the timberlands because shock absorption is really important if your on your feet all day and want to save your knees, ankles and joints.

Make sense, completely agree with you.

I like both styles!

My pops is in his 60s. He wears Tims Jordan air max Adidas boost. He wears whatever I don't want anymore or what he can swipe from me. Been doing this for 20yrs. He gotta nice collection for free...

Instead of the Timberland, how about other brands like Panama Jack (which is from Spain). They have some awesome waterproof boots, which seem to feature that desirable goodyear welt. One I have my eye on is the Glasgow Igloo model, a winter boot with lamb wool inside. At least in the EU it's cheaper than the Tims

🎶she throw my clothes out the window, so when the wind blows, I see my polos and Timbos (timberlands) -Biggie

I definitely wear a three old, beat to hell pair of full grain Timb premiums whenever it rains or gets below 30 because my work Red Wings aren't insulated and the steel toe gets cold. They're also much more light!

This is like comparing an M3 and a Corolla.

I guess Im old. I was wearing Timberlands in the eighties. They were great boots, and all the Rockers wore them.

It’s a disgrace to Redwing to even make this comparison

I wear both brands in my work and none of them have something special. 8 months of life in my work both of them so better to buy some 60 dollars shoes because they last 6 months. I do landscaping work and i walk on gravel most of the time

Great video you should do more vs battles. Timbs for me all day every day

Stridewise Great idea for a comparison video. I’ve never owned Red Wings but I did have a couple of pairs of Doc Martens. I was disappointed in the quality of the Docs, I got less than a year from both pairs.

4:30 the "thuck" sound sync pretty well with the vid

🤣😂 the rap skit kills me lol

I had wore 3-4 pairs of timberland premium and they did amazing works, absolutely waterproof even during the heaviest rainstorms. also I wear red wing, absolutely cool looking boots (I love my iron rangers, moc toe not so much), the leather is amazing, the fit over time is amazing, but everytime heavy raining outside, I'll pick my timberland no doubt, if I have to go to the war, I might choose timberland over the iron ranger. Iron ranger make me looking cool, timberland make me feel safe.

I feel like I'm in a Mobb Deep video when I wear Timbs

I'm wearing timberland with winter socks during winter in new zealand and my toes are sweaty. I guess it's too warm?
