You forgot the most important thing. The basic is a lot lighter than the premium. I have both basic and premium in black. The first one I bought was premium and they were way too heavy on my feet so then I bought the basic. I prefer the basic because they are lighter. The most important thing to me was that they are waterproof. That’s why I bought them in the first place.

stick to the heavys. someone causes you trouble. blast em in the balls.

Basic boots are better for walking long distances, climbing small mountains, hunting, and especially for warmer climates.

I think the basic is more casual. You would look more proper if you were trying to wear them as casual dress. The premiums are nice too but look a little bit harder which is cool too.

I going to drop some real knowledge, when Timberlands got popular in the late 80s early 90's no body really was buying the premiums the majority of people had the steel toe basics, and not the basics in this thumbnail, they didn't have a leather collar on the upper, it was an all nubuck upper! 6" & 8" they came in wheat and black leather, mfrs be lying talking about they didn't wear basics lmmfao the original basics basics are the 💩 and they didn't have the soft hollow rubber that they have today, they really could take a beating and you can see people wearing in early to mid 90's music videos, the premium were out but didn't really serious getting popular until about 1994 and Know for sure because I was buying them, Timberlands Competition back then was Gucci boots, Nike ACG, Geogio Brutini boots, Gortex, Columbia boot, Wolverine, HH Brown, LL Bean, Karl and Kani, and Lugz was just coming out or dubut.

No doubt on Timberland 6 inch premium. Got 2 pair of it with 2 deference colour. No regret with the quality. Thanks Timberland for the passion.

I'm buying my very first pair of timberland grey boots but in basic for casual everyday uses, I'm planning on getting the premium for special occasions.

You didn't factor in weather. The basics are better suited for warmer environments. If you live in a place like Los Angeles, Southern California, Miami, Hawaii or in an area that's usually warm, sunny or humid, the basic is much lighter. The premium is too insulated and is too padded and would look and feel excessive or out of place. The basic gives you the aesthetic without the bulkiness and cold-lined insulation, especially if you're mainly wearing these around town for style purposes. And in spring, summer or when it's above 60 degrees your feet will appreciate it.

I am rocking the classic basic ones for ages now. Never have I ever worn a better shoe.

My premiums from 5 years ago are still going strong! Got at least 3 more years left in them!!

Get both. You thank yourself for it. Get a black pair too. The black basics are 🔥 you could do what we call "Wheats" or "buttas" in premium and charcoals in basic.

I bought the premium yellow boot today. It's my 1st timberland boot , and I love it so much.

I have had black full grain leather basics for 4 years now and they are one of my favorites. I have put a ton of miles on them walking they are great for plantar fasciitis. Just take the laces out and clean and condition them with saddle soap from time to time.. I plan on getting another pair when these wear out..

Buy the basics without the dark coloured cuffs.. looks magnificent and much lighter for comfort in the tropics.

Always Liked The Soles On The Basic Timbs.. Over The Soles On The Premium

I have owned both and both soles have lasted a long time.

What's you take on Timberlands being they are between $150 - $200 BUT with a cemented sole? Because you can always go with the TBC for $200 and get a stich. Are they really worth it?

Thanks for your video. Definitely going with the premiums. ❤

I prefer the classics over the premium. They have a better color layout

I prefer the basics, they remind me more of how timbs looked in the 80's, idk maybe it's just me, but i prefer that vintage vibe :/

Pro is excellent for safety uses. So they cut back on some aesthetic features. However i have been EXTREMELY happy with my 2 pro boots Both around 130$ They have been built to last years! Composite toe is lighter than steel toe; but still satisfies the safety requirement. Very warm for those cold nights; And slip resistant. The pros are a very good choice for everyday work settings. I wouldnt recommend for anything day to day activities as they are indeed heavy. 3ish pounds each boot. I have yet to be dissapointed in the timberland pro series. I am looking to get them resoled for more life

Construction is the same... LOL Rose Anvil's video cutting open these two shows a very different story.

Can you slice up a timberland radford boot with sensorflex please?

The premium came out in the mid 70s. Kid in my middle school come in one day with a pair and it was a must have situation. Yes some kids were still wearing bell bottoms and cheezy nylon shirts but some of us had moved on and started what you now see as the street look even today. Polo , timberland. Adidas....they called it preppy at the time but really wasn't. Anyway I knew with one look that the timberland premium workboot was a classic and I wasn't wrong. Almost 50 years later.

What is the difference between premium boots and double collar boots?

if im a 10.5 in sneakers, what size would i be in timbs because i want the black 6 inch premium

I absolutely hate the white stitching on the premiums but I like the two tone sole of the premiums. You mentioned the white stitching as a great quality, but in my opinion it makes the shoe look really cheap to me…kinda how the sole on the basics leaves something to be desired & maybe looks cheap. Thankfully the only premiums that come with the white stitching is these wheat (or butter) ones in this video. I love the stitching on the basics. It looks way better in my opinion. It’s a much cleaner look to me.

People are gonna think I’m crazy but the Basic Timberland last way longer and doesn’t crease while the Premium creases like crazy. This is coming from someone that currently owns both and have owned both pairs numerous times. The Premium color also fades bad with time while the Basic doesn’t.

I don't feel this is a good review unfortunately. It's like a salesman just telling u the features based on the standard product brochure. I was hoping for a more "user" type of review where you've worn both shoes and can appreciate the differences. Weight for one, is a big big factor. Another is the difference in insulation. All mentioned by actual users in the comments (thank you!).

Both of these, like Dr. Martens, are disposable fashion shoes. You are not going to resole them, or keep them for more than a few years. You like the way they look, you wear them out, then you throw them away. Nobody buys these as work boots. They are not safety shoes.
