How To Repair and Clean Your Timberland Boots - Timberland Boots are notoriously difficult to clean and even harder to repair because of the Nubuck leather. In this video we got a pair of worn out Premium Timberland 6" to test some of the ways we found of reddit to "Clean and Repair Timberland Boots". ASMR gives us a good excuse to try this style of video because asmr videos are our way of trying new styles of videos and boot care techniques. Timberland ASMR Repair

used to do the sanding on my first pair of these timberlands over 20 years ago. used to use around 180 or 220 grit sandpaper which worked perfect and gave that factory finish. Just decided one day to give it a go myself and it worked perfect. 80 grit is just way too abrasive and 1200 is too fine. somewhere around the 200 mark from memory was perfect for replicating a factory finish like new then just a spray with a good neubuck protectant spray and they looked box fresh again. Still have that same pair of boots too to this day. say what you like about timberland boots, but the original six inch shown here, are what they built their reputation on and some of the best daily boots I've ever had (not talking about construction use here, just general day to day, all day wear in normal conditions).
Im clumsy and tripped on a curb with my brand new black Timbs on. The right Timb has a small scuff mark in front now which is annoying so I’m gonna get some 180 grit sandpaper from Amazon to see if I can fix it.
@@glitchyfolks did it work?
In my opinion, the boots looked pretty good after the sanding, then he used that leather rougher and just undid all the progress. I looks like cheap suede in my opinion now
absolute
10,000%
I was shocked when he roughed that leather.
Yeah… I like suede but these just aren’t it.
I agree 💯
Fun fact: dish soap is also useful for most stains. It's strong and binds to grease and dirt while without leaving residue, it's water soluble and it's gentle enough to use on silk.
I've saved many garments from stains using dish soap, including a wedding dress!
Thanks for the tip
I was wandering if it would work cause i life in north Africa and I'm not about to spend the money to order sued shampoo from Europe and not 5mn passes and i come across your comment. Thank you for erasing my doubt 🙏😊
Gonna be a ton of elitist hipsters in the comments saying to toss them out and go buy some $300-$500 boots instead. I know some lower income workers that would love to give their $100 Timbs a bit of a refresh instead. I like these videos.
Learn definition of elitist.
@@I_WANT_MY_SLAW Is boot snob moron a better word than elitist in that comment? There is literally a guy maybe 8 comments down saying to throw out the boots and buy red wings instead. He is talking about "THAT".
@@mad0uche when they are in that bad of a condition, they have served their purpose. If you've worked that hard in those boots, you should've made enough money working in those boots to get yourself a new pair. If not, then it's time to find yourself a better paying job.
@@I_WANT_MY_SLAW What are you ranting about? They're not even in bad condition, the soles have tread and they're just scratched. There is one cut on the boot through 2 stitch rows.
@@mad0uche just get a new pair.
I wonder if you went back through and sanded it after roughing it if it would look more like nubuck instead of suede
Sanding wouldn't work to smooth that back out. Once that top layer is roughed off, that's it. You can however slick the nap back down with some wax or cream polish, but it wouldn't really be nubuck anymore. But hitting them with otterwax or snowseal would have been my final step in this process.
I would have been comfortable with the boots after the sanding. Little knicks and dings is a sign a boot has been loved and adds to the charm in my opinion.
I would be interested if you did a series on combat boots
Same. I would love to see RA compare Bates, Belleville and Rothco and split them open.
I don't really like the rough leather look, but I think there is something to using that brush to fade in the damaged nubuck.
Wtf dude you destroyed these
You can smooth the nap back down with waxes or polish. Otterwax or snowseal would have been my last step in this one. Both to smooth the leather back out a little, and to protect the newly exposed grain from water. A wire brush might have also been effective instead of the rougher. As for the suede kit, the absolute best suede/nubuck eraser is Woly Suede Gum eraser. It works a million times better than the white cheap suede erasers (I have both). The Woly also works on all leathers to remove spots, suede/nubuck/smooth.
Am I the only one waiting for Weston's review of the Clomps Sandals from a couple weeks back?
Still haven’t got a notification of shipment
@@catracho135 😅😅😅
Don't understand why leather conditioner and a stain wasn't used? Along with some very fine grit sandpaper (220+) for the rough areas at the beginning. Could have had those boots looking like new. As they are they look like they've been scuffed up wayyy too much
I was thinking that as well. I still don't understand why they went from 120 to 80.
Leather conditioner wasn't used because this isn't leather, this is nubuck, which is the reason timberlands are garbage - the leather doesn't behave like normal leather and it can't be cleaned and conditioned like a high quality 7-8oz leather.
Leather conditioner is only good for smooth leather (top grain), not nubuk or suede
This is very satisfying
If you use dish soap, the Timberlands lose their waterproofing, been there done that. Best is to use a bit saddle soap, sand them with 180 sandpaper and cover them with a thin layer of mink oil. And wear them with proud, as old Timba’s are like old Red Wings, the more they are damaged the nicer they are 😀
No, they obviously, don't
I would add one step at the end. It will change the final look but it will make them last longer. I would have used finer grain sand paper and at the end I would use grease to cover the leather. Then I would polish them using a cloth. I have applied this treatment to a pair of boots I own and I have already used them for longer than 8 years.
Stick in dirt almost to the ankle in light pink Timbs; after cleaning they got way more light, but noubuck is still awesome 💟
I just put conditioner with sponge for nubac and brush them regularly after every use with sharper brush. From time to time i use silicone ribb brush to even up the texture. I also put cheep shoe trees in to dry them up in shape after use. They got nice patina look over last 14 years. Laces went off in first year. I got lether ones that go with the uper part and i love them still
imo the after looks worse than the before!
Here's a tip. Clean them with dawn, let them air dry and not in the sun. Then rub a nice layer of vaseline on them. Not overly saturated, but enough to know it's there. Again let air dry for 2-3 days then enjoy.
That leather rougher was a NO GO. Dude, if you want Timbs to not look like Timbs have at ‘er, but otherwise stick to sandpaper. Jeez.
The audio in this video is glorious. Great filming.
I usually just throw them out and buy a new premium pair, but I do have a pair of vintage timbs from the 90s that I want to restore.
Just found this video, omg so soothing. Love how the whole video has silence and original sounds. It also helps following the steps of work. Thanks for this video :)
Idk about that roughing leather method. Its like lets damage it more to hide the existing damages.
When you don't plan to use the boots in a tougher environment than tennis shoes, I guess it doesn't matter.
Honestly the fashion boot stuff is kind of annoying, only because it's like watching "as seen on tv" products on tv: cheaply made overpriced bullshit that people who'll never use it like to buy.
I'm wondering if you would do a made in Canada show
Check out Vetiver's timberland restoration. He used leather glue-filler with and nubuck from sanding down the leather..
Can you open a pair of Caterpillar boots like the Holton or Colorado or Second shift? They have welted soles, they are made by Wolverine and they are incredibly cheap, Like 50 or 60 dollars! I am wearing a pair of Holton after my Timberland got finally destroyed after many years and I can say these Caterpillar are really comfortable and look very well made for the price.
Amazing work Brodie
I didn't realize some people work in what are technically work boots, lol.
Also, do note that the presenter did acknowledge that those more aggressive methods do essentially ruin the boots durability. This, to me, came off as an experiment.
That’s why they got popular. :D Before, no one was that much interested in Caterpilar or Timberland, bcs it looked clumpsy and workers used them. Eventually ppl figured that those boots are the best quality, and they became mainstream fashion :) PS Fun fact, “CAT” or full name Caterpillar is actually heavy machinery manufacturer that also makes working shoes. :)
Wonder why you went from 1200 grit straight to 80. Seems like 150 or 220 would be better
thank you for your video.
Great video thank's
Shit went from a pair of constructs to a teddy bear 🧸 lol
You freakin ruined em! Wes!
What about oiling??
Подытожим - Можно ли сделать из говна конфетку? Можно, только конфетка будет из говна 😂
Please review a pair of panama jack’s, I really like them and it would be really interesting to see what you think about them!
Great job the boots look good.
I have a pair of these boots one of my favorites
Should have used the high and came with the smoother stuff and If you did I really couldn't tell. I did the same thing to my Tim's and they came out a lot better
How about cutting a pair of the new Red Wing Classic Chelsea to see how they stack up against blundstones and Redbacks?
Do you think you could tear down Irish setter moc toes
Enjoy your channel because you have made me rethink on how to buy leather gym shoes. Can you please do a video on Bally's shoes?
GOLDEN GOOSE!
Yeah after watching this video I've decided to just buy a new pair
Dish detergent is the worst to use. You never get it all out, and the remaining detergent will break down any oils or waxes you use to nourish the leather.
Thank you. Gripfast review next, ...Please... !
Could also use nubuck or leather dust and a small tiny drop of glue the fine grit sand and repeat til desired effect
It would be interesting to see if Dr. Martins work boots such as Kelham or Winch Service have anything unique going on.
Could you do a segment on military combat boots
Thanks man !
This is really helpful for cleaning my safety shoes 👍🏼
Has he done a video on the different types of boot welts, if not he should👌🏽
Woow, that's quite some transformation😁
You know what the aldo sneakers has a shank.
Rose Anvil, I would love to see a PNW boot shoot out. I know you have done Nicks, but I’d like to see a dedicated video with them, franks, whites, Wesco, and jk to see how they are similar or different.
How about cutting one of those Timberland Helcor series boots into half?
They seems to be pigmented leather.
The amount of leather on the table is bigger than what whole boots contain 😂
Should do a review on Wesco boots
Use sand paper after the rougher and try it out. IMO
you used the sandpaper in the wrong order, youre supposed to use the lower number (larger pieces, more scratchy/gritty first) then the higher number (finer particles, more particles per area) second, not the other way around.
Wow. timberland kit does nothing. Fixed the boots with the sanding paper. Then that rougher ruined them
Hi.
I purchased a second hand leather backpack from a thrift shop and I’ve noticed that on the bottom of the back pack a cloudy spot tends to appear. I looked it up and it looks like it might be mold. Could you do a video on how to remove mold from leather? Thanks!
This strange roughening brush didn't convince at all, imho.
The old Timberlands from the 80’s lasted,,,these new ones? Forget it! You just tap brush the boot against anything abrasive and they shred. Junk
Hello
Mes timberlandboots sont devenues blanches....et on perdu leur couleur d'origine
En frottant avec la brosse dans le test 3 ça cas redonner de la couleur ????j'ai des doutes
Why not to use timberland waximum and timberland special soap?
Hi, is there a way to stop the black nubuck color from rubbing off on light jeans?
Why not sand again at the end to even out?
This almost has an Edgar Wright montage feel.
so, you tried to hide scratches, but, scratching the whole boot? LOOOOOOL
Interesting method. Get rid of scuffs by scuffing the boot completely
Rather than a "leather-rougher", couldn't you a have just used a suede-brush, (with mix of plastic and brass bristles) LOOK IT UP!
Timbs for construction? They must hate their feet to do that to themselves
To be fair it looks like someone wore them for a week on the job and said nah.
Hi, do u have any tips to removing mildew spots on timberland? Really need some help here. Thanks.
seems to me u just ruined some timbs!… all the scruffing, roughing and sanding hurt my heart!… they were pretty rough to begin with, but u removed and agitated so much material, it just didn’t seem right to treat Timbs that way… I’ll just buy another pair before doing all of that…
😂😂😂y’all just made a fuzzy timberland
Have you ever put back together shoes you cutter in half?
Honestly they looked way worse after all that. I'd just clean and leave its at that
Hey have you ever seen twisted x? I made the switch to them for work boots they are affordably priced comfortable from day one and it's an american company based in texas
I think he needs some fz150
Can you review Rainbows sandals?
I love the black Timberland 6" Premium boot, I know they have their critics but for me they tick all the boxes I need, but I always seem have the opposite problem - I keep my uppers fine but I seem to go through soles like crazy 🤷
Do you drag your feet at all when you walk? I've noticed that way more people than you'd think walk like that.
When are those clomps shipping out? @RoseAnvil
You know the big dummy wearing these for construction was from NY trying to flex on his homies
Oh absolutely
I had been looking for someone in that type of employment and I was not able to find anyone.
I don't think taking a wirebrush to a gun, or leather, constitutes "repair" unless you repolish it after for the leather.
Hey, is it possible for you to add a cheaper shipping methode on your Website. I'm from Germany and would like to buy the keychain but i'm Not willing to pay 14€ shipping for a 5€ product.
Tell weaver beaver 10% is not a real discount! 20% or more. Everyone knows that!
Why did you start at 1200!? Then jump to 80!? Lol maybe 120? Then move up or down for desired finish.
You should see mine
Nice job but by the time you purchase all the equipment you could have bought a brand new pair of Timberlands.
Those boots are brand new, theres no wear on the tread, they’ve just been on a building site for a week 🤷🏼♂️
You didn't even do nothing to the biggest scuff on it
Hey cool stuff, have you thought about using a fabric shaver to deal with the fuzz?
In my experience renapping suede I have found facial trimmers to be much more effective and even then lint shavers
I've noticed you haven't really done anything with wolverine boots. I own the cabor EPX boots and I love them even though I do have custome made orthotics in them. Yes I'm cheating.
Why let dry for a few hours when you can use a hair dryer
I love timberlands but they give me blisters on one foot and not the other.
Epsom salt also does the trick
Cool, I absolutely will never buy a leather rougher via Weaver.
