I don't know about you, but in this household we have a serious problem with children's shoes. No, it's not the fashion touches, the colors or the fit. It's the fact that, within about two weeks, my daughter can reduce a perfectly respectable pair of shoes to a demoralized, shredded mess.
I honestly don't know what little kids do to footwear; I suspect they carry their own tiny garbage compactors around and run their footwear through it daily. Luckily, with these Timberland Asphalt Trail boots, I think I've managed to stop the Shoe Shredder in her tracks. Hopefully, these extremely sturdy motorcycle-ish boots would fit the bill for your hard walker as well. The soles are thick and impervious to wear. The leather is a bit stiff, and of the kind that actually looks better with a few scratches and scuffs. Yet, they're still stylish enough to match with a cute dress, tuck skinny jeans into, or pair with leggings and a tunic. I think these Timberlands walk all over those fancier European shoe brands, with their fey suede appliques and delicate sensibilities (you know who you are).
At about $90, the Timberland Asphalt Trail boots aren't exactly cheap. But having to buy replacement pairs every two months would cut deeply into your monthly nut, too. Just imagine: a single pair of boots per season. Try living the dream and order a pair at www.zappos.com.
