Saw this and thought of this thread 😂
From Irish times today...
European sizes are based on the Paris Point which is two-thirds of a centimetre. Each jump in size – from 44 to 45, say – is a jump of one Paris point. English and US sizes are based on – believe it or not – the barleycorn. And what is that? Well, obviously, it is an ancient English unit measuring one third of an inch. The largest standard shoe size is 12 inches – so that is a size 12. An 11 is 12 inches minus one barleycorn while a 10 is 12 inches minus two barleycorns and so on. Then there is the metric measure, also called the Mondopoint system, which is commonly found in parts of Asia.
same with me size 44 was perfect last time i purchased but the pair i got in this sale are a size big, but i'll keep them and pad them out with insoles and heel grips😐️
Seems this offer is now expired
Got my boots. Ordered 43.5. a bit narrow on the width but length is perfect.
Thanks OP
Sending the boots back unfortunately - size 45 was perfect on my last pair of Timberland's, but this pair is too big. Very nice boots though, I should have ordered a few different sizes to start with.
Jesus UPS are really bad, still waiting for a delivery, taking their sweet time
Just sent 2 pairs of trousers back (my fault, didn't pick 'slim' rather than 'straight fit'), and kept one pair that was ordered by me correctly. Bar code process efficient and easy (they ask you to use their original delivery box for returns for environmental purposes but you don't have to). In relation to swapping - the FAQ states just order new pairs separately. (though as someone said, they might have gone up - the 2 replacements I got were about €4 extra each, and I had to sign up with a new email address to stack a new welcome code)
Got mine yesterday and they fit fine thankfully, Thanks for the heads up OP.
Same company as Timberland (as is vans, wrangler jeans, Napa juri and several others)
Quite a few additional items added to the sale, but also some discounts less than what they were.
don't know like to know myself, returning them and getting a refund is straightforward but whether they'll give you a straight swap for another size is another thing
Hi All
i got mine today and they fit perfect, i'd actually have preferred a half size bigger for breathing room but with thin socks i still have a thumbnails worth of space over the toes so no way i'll send back, thanks again op
Received two pairs of shoes. I ordered a half size bigger than normal and both fitted perfectly.
Im starting to think my normal size won't fit right now, they arrive today.
Surely if you ordered size 11 at X price you're entitled to return them for size 10.5 at the same price no ?
Got my shoes today, my usual shoe size is 9.5 but its a size big with Timberland but fek it i'll just wear extra thick winter socks for them
also got a t-shirt usual size is Large but its a size big with Timberland but fek it i'll just put it in an extra hot wash to shrink it 😐️
I've tried them on a couple of times and they are just a little tight. Unsure if I need a half size up.
I can return free
Sneaky the way they have increased the prices. Probably catches a lot of people out.
I might return, but I won't be re ordering again at a higher price.
They've raised prices even on stuff that was OOS before. One item I spotted has doubled from previous sale price.
i'm a 9.5 in most and ordered 44 i hope they fit now, are yours too tight which is why you want to return ? can you return to a shop instead ?
New code for 20% off : TBLEXTRA20. Sadly cannot be stacked with AFFTBLEXTRA20, and looks like they raised the price/decreased the discount on many items since the OP
Great bargain, another €310 gone🤣😥
^^^^^^
more importantly do they fit?
My shoes arrived.
I ordered size EU 43 which is a UK 9.
Yet on the shoe itself is printed EU 43 / UK 8.5.
What?
Just an FYI
I would be a 9 in most shoes e g Clarks
Maybe a 10 in Adidas Nike
I ordered 44 9.5 They are snug. Maybe just because they are new.
Debating as to whether to return
But noticed that the prices have gone up on the ones that I ordered by a tenner.
but in fairness it doesn't say European size on the main page, it just just give sizes available - 40, 41, 42 etc ..so when you go to the size guide you don't whether its EU or BR 😶
The North Face jackets on sale upto 50% ( I know they are over priced like Timberland :)......................)
https://www.thenorthface.ie/sale.html
That's a bit pedantic.
The size they show is the European size, eg 43,44,45,46
They then have a size guide that allows you check against the other sizing regimes - UK, USA, Japan and Brazil.
In any case there's a very sizable Brazilian community in Ireland, but that's a moot point.
As for changing sizes with a phonecall. Nope, rarely can be done by most larger retailers due to how fulfillment is done.
The one I got looks like it's not generic, 2 minutes to sign up and get it anyway.
Thanks OP. Got 3 trousers with 40/50% off and the extra codes too making them about €36 each.
What's the promo code for signing up to their newsletter? I've tried to sign up with 2 different emails and I'm still waiting to receive an email from them (the timeberland.ie site). Is the code generic?
Great find, thanks OP! A pair of ladies boots from the Timberland.ie site down to 55 euro with the 2 discounts and good value in mens tshirts for 12.60 each.
Very happy with that!
Thanks OP, got a pair of gortex boots for like 60 quid, unreal. Go down a half size if your wondering about sizing, I'm 10 in Nike, but 9.5 in Timberland.
just to answer my own question above - the size you go for is EU, BR is brazil, wtf are they doing with brazilian shoe sizes on a irish site??😣
just phoned up customer service and asked them to change my shoe size and they said they couldn't and that i'd have to make a new order😣
