Good news! Your boots are definitely legit. These were a limited collaboration between Timberland and Pendleton in 2015, they're called the Mt. Heston WP Hiker. The style number for your shoe is located right under the size, 8705B. Here's a current retailer listing

Now on to your questions.

  1. Not all Timberland boots use the same laces as the 6" Premium. In fact almost none of the Hikers will use the taslan/nylon lace from the original boots. These should be traditional plastic aglets on the ends of this style as it is a more fashion oriented hiker.

  2. Scratches and dents on leather shoes being shipped across country is not only common, it's almost unavoidable, especially with this type of unfinished oiled leather. To keep them looking good, do not use alcohol pads or any harsh/abrasive cleaners. You're only damaging the boots you paid good money for. All you need to do is apply your favorite brand of neutral reconditioning cream every so often to remove scratches and scuffs. This will also help relieve some of the "color loss" you experienced, but it may not return back to normal perfectly, as once again these boots are a "raw" oiled finish and will always have marks and scratches and wrinkles.

  3. Gore-tex. So let's take a second and talk about what Gore-tex really is. It's a thin nylon fabric that's used as a sock liner to help make boots waterproof. It should feel slightly scratchy to the touch, as it is porous. There's 9 million little cones in every square inch that letter water out (e.g. sweat), without letting water in to the shoe. There will almost never be an interior signifier on almost any Timberland shoe interior that calls out Gore-tex. That almost certainly 100% looks like Gore-tex to me from your pics. If you want to test it out run the boot under a faucet and put your hand in. If it's dry, you're good to go!

    Hopefully that helps!
