I've been wearing Timberland Titan boots, black, soft-toe, size 14 for at least the past 6 or 7 years. Hell of a great boot- comfortable, durable, waterproof.

My current pair is getting to be a tad worse for wear. Before my recent trip to NYC, I was debating as to whether I should order them "now" (eg: October) or wait until after the trip. I decided to wait, on the grounds that my boots always get chewed up during installs, and I figured I'd use up the last of the ones I had. Came to regret that decision slightly when, upon the first good rainstorm while walking across lower Manhattan I found that they were no longer waterproof, however I managed to find a cobbler's shop that did some quick repair work on 'em.


So now I'm back home, and I go online to buy a new set. Well guess what- they're no longer available in size 14. I can get 'em in brown, but that kind of violates my admittedly absurd self-imposed fashion guidelines. I have worn black boots since I was in high school, and I don't really intend to change that any time soon.

http://www.myoutdoorwarehouse.com/Ti.../dp/B000XEH2Q8 Joe? They have a few pairs left of 14 if that's what you are talking about.

Same for http://www.footsmart.com/P-Timberlan...ots-86702.aspx - is your google-fu weaker than mine, Joe? That's unpossible.

My hero!

The first link is the safety-toe version which I find a bit bulky, but that second link was the one.

I honestly didn't even think to Google them. I normally buy direct from the Timberland.com site, and when they listed them as NLA there, I figured they were just gone altogether.

Went to the Orthopedic today to get my ankle MRI checked out, turns out I've got to ware a boot for 3-4 weeks, then get physical therapy for 3-4 weeks because I've got a stress fracture. Bye bye February ship date.

Sorry to hear that man, just be glad you found out now instead of at the island.

**** like that scares me, that's why I take extreme caution when working out. Trying my best to not agitate one of my many sports injuries.

Yeah, it doesn't hurt most of the time but it never really got better. But like you said, better off here then there.
I did it when I was running w/ my brother on an unfamiliar trail at dusk, so it was pretty dark, and really dumb of us. My brother had one of those flashlights that straps to your head, and I didn't.

Whats your ship date/MOS? I'm Combat Support which is tanks/arty/APC's some other slick ****. It's defiantly the MOS I want.

Wearing an orthopedic boot and long pants make going poo an awkward experience.

It is the internet, how do you find anything. I was following links and somehow ended up there.
