We all know that designer Tactical shoes or milotary boots are high-quality as well as expensive. Maybe we will hesitate for long time when we deciding to buy a pair of designer boots and shoes. Since that, cleaning and protecting designer boots and shoes are very important. As the famous designer boots, Timberland boots are becoming more and more popular. At the same time, cleaning Timberland boots is more important than buying Timberland boots.

When it comes to Timberland fashion boots, prevention is the key. Items such as Timberland's Waxed Leather Protector or Balm Proofer XL All Purpose Protector help prevent stains before they happen. It's equally important that you use protectors that guard your Timberland boots against rain and water damage.

You can use other protectors on your Timberland shoes, such as Lacrosse's waterproofing spray. This protector can be used on a variety of fabrics, including Gore-Tex. Make sure your Timberland boots are clean before applying protectors. Spread the protector evenly across the surface of the boot. Wipe off excess liquid with a clean, damp cloth. Let your boots air dry for several hours. Use your brush to smooth out the fabric when your milotary boots dry.

High-performing heated milotary boots have long been a Holy Grail in the footwear world. With its new men's Bugathermo and women's Snow Hottie models, Columbia Sportswear Company took a stab at making the ultimate heated boot. The boot features built-in rechargeable batteries and on-boot controls to provide three temperature settings. A single charge provides up to eight hours of heat for your feet.

Over two months of Minnesota winter, including temps below zero, I tested the Bugathermo boots, which cost $250 a pair. A female friend who coaches Nordic skiing tried the Snow Hotties out. Our conclusions were about the same: Columbia has missed the aforementioned Holy Grail by a long shot. The Bugathermos are clunky and uncomfortable. Design flaws include a bad fit on the top of the midfoot area, where boot flex causes material to fold over and press into your foot. Fit around the calves was uncomfortable and loose on long hikes.

And the embedded heaters? I could barely feel the warmth. When hiking on a ten-degree day with the heat turned on for one foot but off for the other, my feet felt about the same.

To be sure, Thinsulate insulation keeps these milotary boots warm. I could walk in the snow for long periods on zero-degree days with no issue. But the internal heater, powered by lithium-polymer batteries, was almost unnoticeable. Heat seeps rather than blasts.

The Snow Hotties are better designed than the Bugathermos, melding a motorcycle-type boot with equestrian style, as the company puts it. But Columbia also touts the "warmth of a furnace" with these leather boots.

female tester liked the Snow Hotties' look and feel. But like me, she said the internal heaters were not overly effective. It was a subtle warmth, she reported. On the icy trail, skiers whizzing by, there was no Holy Grail.
