Timberland PRO Women's Titan Work Shoe,Black,5.5 W US Review

This shoe in black: Women's Timberland Pro Titan 90670
This shoe in brown: Women's Timberland Pro Titan 63189

I'm providing this information in hopes that it will help others in their search: In my research, I was unable to locate a single site that listed this shoe as being available in both brown and black. Most of the sites I found that carried the shoe in one color, did not carry it in the other. Even Timberland's site lists it as two different shoes. Most sites had incomplete information about the shoe as well - in particular, a complete list of its safety features and ratings. It was by piecing together info. I'd gathered on the two shoes that I finally figured out they both have the same cut (oxford) and style as well as safety features.

Both the Women's Timberland Pro Titan 90670 (black) and 63189 (brown) oxford safety shoes are electrical hazard-rated, steel-toed and (the sole) slip and oil resistant. They're comfortable - the insole is nicely cushioned and, even w/ a steel toe, the weight isn't too heavy either. I have bad knees that balk when I wear my heavy safety boots. They haven't kicked up a fuss yet after a long day wearing these shoes.

There are, however, two issues that I've recognized thus far:

(1) The tongue slips down - folding in on itself where the steel toe ends - at the joints between my foot and toes.
This issue was very bothersome and, fortunately, easily remedied. Using a fresh (clean & sharp) new blade in a box cutter - careful to avoid cutting through the underside of the tongue - I cut two slits ~1/4" apart and ~1/2" long - centered vertically just below the stitching of the (top-most) portion of the tongue (the portion that has the logo stamped impression on it). I then threaded the lace from the 3rd eyelet (counting from the toe) through the slits I'd created. This keeps the tongue in place - from slipping down onto my toes.

(2) There's a bit of slip at the heel. I toyed w/ the idea of returning them for a half size smaller but thought better of it. That 1/2 size smaller might be too tight - particularly after being on my feet all day. As I don't do a great deal of walking (e.g. all day up and down an enormous production floor), the minor slipping hasn't been a problem. This may not be the case for those who do a great deal of walking. In that event, you'll likely want a closer fit.

In summary, the shoes could be built built better (tongue and heel issues) as well as marketed better. Unfortunately, there are very limited options for women in safety-rated shoes and boots. On the whole, for the money and the safety features and given the limited options in women's safety shoes, this shoe is a good buy.

I've shared a link - below - to an interesting site I ran across when researching how to remedy the tongue slipping issue. I never knew there were so many ways to tie shoelaces and how doing so differently can change how the shoe fits/feels on one's foot.
