Advice re. Timberland New Market Trans Leather Boot

[Demedici]

I found the above boots for ~ 50% off. http://piperlime.gap.com/browse/prod...&pid=868704002

However, they are final sale, and right at the bottom of my size range.


Does anyone have any experience with these boots in particular, or Timberland boots in general? I'm looking for advice about their durability and sizing, specifically how these boots (or Timberlands generally) fit. If they run slightly large, I'm in business, because I can wear thicker socks if they are oversized. I'm not really into home surgery to fix an undersizing problem.


Finally, does anyone have general thoughts about the boots?

Timberlands tend to run a half size to a size large.
