Boy I had a big mud stain on my new timbs and yesterday I used soap and water and a tooth brush to get them clean, I started in one small area and then it just spread and now my timbs look mashed up it's heartbreaking. Is there anyway I can them??

I used fairy liquid or any type of washing up liquid on mine and they always come out clean..
Put a tiny drop of it in a luke warm water, not to cold not too hot..
Use the toothbrush to clean the area gently, then clean the rest of the Timbs, (if you don't it will come out funny)..
After that wipe it with some foam dipped in water..
Leave it to dry, Timbs usually have a quick in less than an hour actually...
This is what I have been doing all my timbs and it seems to do the job. For the soleyoucan use hot water, and some detergent..
Goodluck

Suede, nubuckor leather? Leather you can scrub and then polish. Suede or Nubuck need specific cleaning stuff. Don't use suede cleaner on a nubuck shoe for example. Take the boot to a pro and ask them. Or look at the material and find a reference online.

Then I think they are ruined. Nubuck is notoriously tricky and if you use the wrong thing on it then that's that.

We have black designers and clothing lines, but the same people who denounce wearing Tims would also be loathe to put any money inpuffy's or Russell's pockets!! confused2

Timberland was started and owned by a Jew(Nathan Swartz).
Timberland is a publicaly traded company so I guess it's
possible that they went out and bought some shares, but
by no means do they run it. Jeff Swartz is the Pres/CEO
of the company now.
