Field Trekker Sneaker (Men)

I stumbled into a Timberland store for the first time Sunday and saw their "tennis shoes" and I am very impressed in the style. I initially wanted to try on 3 different styles to see which I liked best, these were first - I never tried the other 2 pairs on. These shoes are my absolute favorite shoes to wear, I can't get over how comfortable my feet felt in them right off the bat! I immediately wore them to work the next day - expecting to have blisters because I'm on my feet all day - I didn't have any, they are just incredibly comfortable. I will be buying another pair!

I'm on my feet 9 hours, walking about 3 miles/day on concrete and wanted a shoe/boot hybrid fit the role. This ain't it. I immediately noticed the cheap excuse for an insole - an 1/8" piece of sponge that compresses down to nothing. This revealed the cheap construction of the sole which gives no spring back with each step. The balls of my feet immediately started getting blisters. I wanted to like these boots so I ordered $60 insoles which is its own can of worms. I shouldn't need to play trial and error with insoles to get these boots work, so I'll probably return them. Only upside seems to be decent tread. I wouldn't recommend these for hiking or any work that involves being on your feet - which is what boots are for.
