About this deal

I’ve worn them in snow with heavy socks and the traction was good but the lack of insulation convinced me to switch to my winter boots after a half day. Take your time – taking this boot on a multi-day hike without having walked in it for a week or two could have you nursing blisters unnecessarily.

The shoes look great in person and I paid 147 euro’s in total for the shoes, some extra insoles, transport and VAT. The toe box is wide,made on a boot last unlike some others which are narrow and pinch ones precious toes.If you are looking for a rugged outdoor or general purpose boot, just get them, dont even think about it.

However, after just a few hours of wearing it around the office, the leather started conforming to my feet and I found myself grinning for no reason – the magic of a leather boot. These changes are: (1) Use leather for the footbed, (2) Delete the insole or include a higher quality one (my insole was flat at the 40 mile mark), and (3) Install an additional lace eyelet by the toes. This boot shines on jeep track, loose, rocky terrain and undulating single track while carrying a heavy pack. The kind you resole a few times and use your entire lifetime, not the disposable shoes sold by most today.

It is a wider boot, particularly in the toe box compared to normal D width, but that room is part of what adds to the comfort.

They found a pair of Rangers and have sent them to me (certainly do not look like ‘seconds’ to me) and after wearing them this morning I was more than pleased to see that they held no gravel. The break-in period was tough underfoot, less so once I got some high-end insoles, took several days of regular wear and light hiking. I've been looking for a pair of all leather hiking boots for some time now and wasn't having much luck because most these days have a lot of synthetic material incorporated into their construction.Versatile design For over 25 years, the Jim Green Razorback has been the choice of hikers, game rangers and corporations in South Africa.

Read more about the condition New with box: A brand-new, unused, unworn and undamaged item in its original packaging (such as the original box or bag) and/or with the original tags attached. Now for the quilts control when i looked at the shoes there was missing rubber on the soles, the thread for the welt had lose parts in at least 2 or 3 places, to be honest it is so bad i wont be surprised if the first time it rains my feet get soaked and i have to replace the soles in a few months.If the upper is in good condition get the Yellow pages out and get in touch with your nearest cobblers. I wanted something more substantial underfoot for the rocky trails here in Phoenix, the Razorbacks will foot the bill. With a good coat of SnoSeal or similar beeswax based sealant on the leather and all seams these are highly water resistant, good for tromping through mud, puddles and streams but not wading.
