Dan: Now that it is winter time and it is consistently cold, wet, and slushy outside people’s shoes and sneakers tend to get destroyed during these harsh months.  I recommend this great Timberland gift that will keep guys looking tough and staying dry at the same time.  Timberland boots have either a steel toe or without one.  If you need a pair of these really great high quality boots for things like walking around or yard work than the steel toe is not really necessary.  The steel toe does cost extra and provides that extra protection (less comfort) for people undergoing really heavy construction projects.

Amongst the Gore-Tex boot world, TImberland’s or “Tims” are the ideal choice.  They are perfect for every occassion, from work, hiking, traveling, or just the everyday, Tims make the best gift choice.

Grace: As someone who goes to school where it starts snowing in October and ends in May (if we’re lucky), I understand the importance of having proper winter shoes.  Many of the freshmen think they can get away with wearing Uggs in the snow, but they soon realize that they need something more durable.  If you know someone who just started attending school in the snow or is planning on doing so, skip the Uggs and get them Timberlands.  However, I wouldn’t recommend steel toes because, in my experience, they’re actually more dangerous.  I used to horseback ride and there was someone at my barn who owned steel toed boots, got stepped on by a horse, and the steel bent and cut through their toes.  Not a pleasant story, and certainly not something you would want to be responsible for.
