What the Manolo is Wearing: Timberland Earthkeepers Boots
Manolo says, two years ago, when the Manolo was living in Argentina, he purchased the pair of these boots, the Timberland Earthkeepers 6″ in preparation for tramping about the wilds of Patagonia. He admits to having been somewhat dubious about them at the time…
“Yes,” the Manolo said to himself, while examining them in the Timberland store in the Patio Bullrich, “they look very good, but they are not terribly expensive. Will they last?”
And now, the Manolo is happy to report that they have given good service over many, many miles, and have become one of the preferred boots for stumbling through the trackless wilderness of the Farmers Market.

Ah! I am this moment wearing my Timberland Earthkeepers high-heeled oxfords, which have become my go-to shoes for the winter (such as it is the wilds of the San Francisco bay area). Excellent shoes; very comfortable and really quite chic.

I think it is not uncommon that the footwear made for a certain purpose is both lower-priced and better-quality than one would expect. If I want loafers, I go to Bass. If I want cowboy boots- Justin. Hikers- Vasque. Boat shoes- Sperry. Snow boots-Sorel. These are all classics, they each have decades of expertise behind them, and they’re very good at what they do because they mostly do just one thing.
