Timberland Pro Tempe Safety Hiker - Black - Boots - Size: 6.5

These boots meet the EN ISO 20345:2022+A1:2024 standard, with safety features rated S7 FO HRO SR.

While they feature a waterproof membrane for breathability, the full grain leather and safety features may make them warmer than unlined, lighter footwear in extremely high temperatures.

The internal waterproof membrane is designed for durability. Maintaining the external leather with regular cleaning and conditioning helps protect the boot and preserve its overall integrity, indirectly supporting the waterproof system.

The heel height is 3.0 cm.

Yes, the contoured Ortholite PU footbed is removable and can be replaced with other insoles or orthotics if desired, provided they are of a similar thickness.

The boots feature a non-metallic shank but include a metallic puncture plate for safety. The overall construction may contain other metallic components for durability.

This is common with new leather footwear. Wear the boots for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size and width.

Inspect the leather upper and seams for any damage. If the external leather is compromised, it may affect the waterproof membrane's effectiveness. Clean and condition the leather; if damage is evident, consider professional repair or replacement.

The PRO Rubber Slip Resistant Outsole is designed for traction, but performance can be affected by extreme contamination (e.g., heavy grease, mud). Clean the outsole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove any buildup and restore grip.
