Our verdict

If you want an outdoorsy pair of boots without the bulk of typical hiking footwear, we firmly believe that the Sprint Trekker from Timberland is very worth considering. We instantly fell in love with the boot’s elegant leather upper and snazzy eyelets. What's more, it feels super light on the foot! As long as you think of it as a hiking-inspired Coast for casual and easy-going trips, you will be pleasantly surprised.

Who should NOT buy

timberland cab Premium 6 In A1UVX timberland cab Euro Hiker instead. The boot is equipped with an unforgiving steel shank which makes the platform super rigid. This boot also has a taller and more padded collar which grants more ankle support.

And if you think you need a more functional hiking boot for long and challenging hikes, stay away from the Sprint Trekker. We insist on getting a boot like the timberland cab heritage lux boots instead.

Cushioning

Heel stack

Looking at the amount of cushioning, it is clear why the boot weighs so light. Our calliper shows only 26.1 mm of stack height in the heel, which is a whole centimetre lower than average!

Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 Heel stack

For that reason, we highly recommend wearing the Sprint Trekker for short hikes only. It simply doesn't have enough foam to buffer the impact if you plan to wear it from dusk to dawn while carrying a backpack.

Drop

Calculating the difference in stack heights, we got a drop of 6.2 mm. This is one of the lowest we've seen in hiking boots!

It means that your foot stays more parallel to the ground, and the heel elevation is barely noticeable. This setup delivers a more natural walking experience but lowers impact protection when stepping on the heels.

Midsole softness

Note: a low durometer measurement equals a soft material, whereas a high measurement means it's firm.

Just like many other hiking boots, the Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 has a slightly firmer cushioning.

Measuring the foam with a durometer, we got a reading of 28.8 HA which is exactly the same as the average.

If you intend to wear the boot when temperatures drop down to 30°F (0°C), we must warn you that the boot will get firmer. But luckily, it's nothing critical.

After keeping the boot in our freezer for 20 minutes, we repeated the durometer measurement. The result went from 28.8 HA to 33.6 HA, indicating that the foam got 17% firmer.

In our regular hiking boot size, the Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 felt pretty tight in the toebox.

Measuring the widest part of the forefoot, we got 99.1 mm. That's a couple of millimetres narrower than average but is not as critical.

But when we do measure the width around the big toe with a calliper, we get only 69.6 mm! That's about 7 mm narrower than average and is an absolute disaster for wide feet. We don't think that going even a full size larger will help the situation.

Stability

Lateral stability test

In our opinion, the Sprint Trekker is not the boot to consider if you need high levels of stability and support. In this regard, it feels more like an outdoor Coast.

Torsional rigidity

Twisting the Sprint Trekker in our hands, it turned out to be way too flexible for a proper hiking boot. We rated its torsional rigidity as 3 out of 5, where 5 is the stiffest.

To make it clear, this was not a problem for our casual stroll on a manicured trail. But we can see how it would get wobbly on the more uneven ground.

The same goes for the boot's heel counter. On a 1-5 scale where 5 is the stiffest, we rated it as low as 2.

It does have some stiffness to prevent the heel from slipping all over the place. But this heel counter is not sturdy enough to create a highly secure foothold for carrying a loaded backpack or paving your way through rocky trails.

Finally, this timberland cab boot proves its more casual-oriented design with a slightly narrower platform.

Measuring the widest part of the forefoot, our calliper showed 109.1 mm. Being only a few millimetres narrower than average, this already subtracts from the boot's overall stability.

In a men's US size 9, we found that it comes in at 16.5 oz (468g) which is about 2 ounces lighter than average.

Breathability

Wearing this timberland cab boot in summer is probably not the best idea. Fully covered in nubuck leather, the Sprint Trekker felt quite toasty on our feet on a summer day.

As you can see from our smoke-pumping test below, the air is only passing through the gaps between the tongue and the upper. On a scale from 1 to 5, where 5 is the most breathable, we rated the Sprint Trekker as 2.

Outsole hardness

The Sprint Trekker was given an incredibly hard outsole rubber. Pressing our durometer against it returned one of the highest measurements we've seen in hiking boots - 92 HC!

Having lab-tested hundreds of shoes, we found that harder rubbers tend to have the longest shelf life. Thus, we have a good feeling about the boot. Its hard outsole will also resist the abrasion from concrete pavements better.

Outsole thickness

We were also happy to find that the rubber layer is pretty thick. Our calliper shows 3.8 mm of thickness excluding the lug depth.

Sure, it's only a millimetre thicker than average but it will take longer to wear through that extra millimetre.

Misc

Lug depth

For a casually styled boot, the Sprint Trekker features a pretty aggressive set of lugs. Measuring their depth with a calliper, we got 4.0 mm, only 0.5 mm thinner than average.

With their size and spacing, we believe that they make the outsole grippy enough for light mud and even some slush.

There are no gussets on the tongue of the Sprint Trekker. We didn't have any issues with the tongue sliding to the side as it seems to have a pretty ergonomic shape.

Also, those gaps between the tongue and the upper appear to be the only source of breathability in this timberland cab boot.

Heel tab

The pull tab is neatly embedded into the boot's leather overlay on the heel. It is stealthy but functional even though we didn't find it necessary.

Recycled materials

According to Timberland, the Sprint Trekker uses a durable ReBOTL fabric lining that's made with at least 50% recycled plastic. The idea behind it is that the non-biodegradable PET plastic bottles are recycled and turned into RPET yarns.
