Who should buy
rare timberland cab nellie chukka wheat nubuck womens Timberland is a fantastic blend of eye-catching form and trail function. We bet you'll enjoy this Timbs boot if you are after the following:
- a casually styled boot that can go from the trail to a coffee shop, bar, mall, etc.
- timberland cab b103 taille 285 noir
- non-rugged footwear for hard-packed terrain with mild inclines
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!
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.
Sprint Trekker | 26.2 mm |
Average | 36.4 mm |
Forefoot stack
The boot's forefoot stack comes in at 20 mm which is also a little lower than the average. But it does give a more stable and grounded feel.

Sprint Trekker | 20.0 mm |
Average | 22.6 mm |
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.

Sprint Trekker | 6.2 mm |
Average | 13.8 mm |
Midsole softness
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.
A squishy sole is the last thing you want to experience when going up or down the incline or navigating the rocks.

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.

Insole thickness
The Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 comes with a cosy Ortholite insole. It did a very nice job wicking out the moisture on our toasty summer hike.
Measuring the insert with a calliper, we found that it is 5.6 mm thick in the heel.

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.

...it is extremely tapered! We don't even need a measurement tool to see how narrow it gets towards the toes.
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.

Average | 4.3 |
Sandálias timberland cab Nubble Leather Fabric azul amarelo criança
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.

Average | 111.9 mm |

In the heel, however, the widest part of the sole comes in at 92.1 mm. That's the same width as the average.

Sprint Trekker | 92.1 mm |
Average | 87.4 mm |
Flexibility / Stiffness
The Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 allows the foot to bend more or less naturally. Putting it through our stiffness test, we found that it requires 13% less force to bend than other hikers.

In low temperatures, do expect the boot's flexibility to go down. After 20 minutes in the freezer, we discovered that the Sprint Trekker required a force of 53.2N.
But the good news is that the difference in stiffness wasn't as drastic on this timberland cab boot as it was in some other hiking boots. The Trekker got 37.7% stiffer whereas the average hovers around 50%.

Weight
The Ботинки timberland cab 36-41 boasts a pleasantly light weight for a boot that's entirely made of leather.
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.

timberland cab Premium 6 In A1UVX | Durability
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.

Sprint Trekker | 92.0 HC |
Average | 87.5 HC |
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.

Sprint Trekker | 3.8 mm |
Average | 3.0 mm |
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.
Sprint Trekker | 4.0 mm |
Average | 4.2 mm |
Tongue padding
Despite the Sprint Trekker's minimal design, it didn't skimp on the tongue padding. We measured a good 11.3 mm of foam in the tongue which is the same as the average.

Average | 10.9 mm |
botas timberland cab nellie chukka double waterproof castanho mulher
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.

Sprint Trekker | None |
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.

Sprint Trekker | Pull tab |
Removable insole
For those of you who need a custom orthotic, the boot's default insole is easily removable. However, given the boot's narrow toebox, we cannot guarantee that it would fit.

Sprint Trekker | Yes |
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.
