What I like about Jim green is they are the perfect width. Also I love my jim green barefoot shoe. There was no break in, they just fit. I put them on and walked a mile and was like wow no break in.
I literally just found, that a good shaving brush is great for polishing boots. Received my Rangers couple days ago and for life of me, I don’t understand the reviews claiming a break in, before comfortable. I just took off- walking on cement, 3 flights of stairs with a load, over uneven terrain. This was all day! Felt great from start to end. Thanks! I believe I finally found the boot that will not only carry me on top of the earth, but will be on my feet when it’s time to go 6 feet under. 🤣🫵👍
Cool, I have a pair of the barefoot African Rangers on order. Also, you might start off cleaning the boots with saddle soap prior to recoloring / waxing
@RedPillVegan unfortunately not, you will have to have a custom boot made if you require colours other than what we have on offer currently. Please do let us know if you have any further questions, we are always happy to assist in getting the correct pair of Jim Green boot in your hands and on your feet.
Great vellie by the looks and reviews I have seen. In the market for new vellies and have done some homework. Why did you not replace the midsole, as you can clearly see its cracked up bad, and is the midsole made of leather? Would love to get feedback on this.
These boots may be 7 years old, but you can tell by their soles that they are not their daily driver. I love my JG's I have multiple pairs and run them 90% of the time. Please don't expect to get 7 years out of a rubber sole if wearing them every day.
I placed a custom order of their Baobab made on the barefoot last with the barefoot sole. It cost an extra 70 bucks (US) but idk where else I can find a true barefoot boot constructed in a resoleable way.
I do not have a youtube channel but would like to promote Gimgreen here in Kenya. I hope one will have a chance to review it. Kenya has passion for Safari boots and Gim green fits that category perfectly.
Good day and thanks for the interest! You are able to locate all our Official Online stores through the link below. Please get in touch should you have any questions.🐸 linktr.ee/jimgreenfootwear
Our boots are true to fit using the Brannock device and possess an EE width. An option, should the boots be too wide, would be to size down or alternatively replace the insole in the boot to give a more snug fit 💪🐸
Thank you! When will there be more sizes to the US market? Size 10 selection is pretty light for the vellies. I found your company after trying Clark’s, but found them lacking in ways. I’ve stuffed my feet in Chuck Taylor’s as a kid and now as an adult I see that I need a wide toe box. It’s ridiculous the shoe/boot market values style over footwear that is good for your feet. Wild.

They were very responsive to me when I placed my custom order last month. It took about a day or two between responses but I also assumed most of that was because they're essentially on the other side of the world from me.
@@JimGreenFootwearOfficial Thanks Jason, I will reach out today. I've had 4-5 emails go unanswered or taking several requests / weeks to get an answer.
@@JimGreenFootwearOfficial Ive been trying to place a custom order for 1-2 months and have not made progress. I just read that you are not accepting custom orders beyond 11/1. Will I be able to do this before that deadline?
The vellies were conditioned with our Jim Green leather balm which is an all-natural formula designed to nourish, condition and protect hiking boots. Infused with Marula fruit and Macadamia Nut oil, it deeply conditions leather, while the beeswax and sugarcane wax create a protective barrier against water and stains. Ideal for outdoor use, this balm keeps leather boots durable and looking new, enhancing their longevity and beauty.
This leather colour ages beautifully👌🏻, Mark makes me feel like a proud South African 🇿🇦 💪 Go Bokke!!! 😁🇿🇦

Me pueden decir qué modelo son? Gracias,saludos.
@@JimGreenFootwearOfficial Thanks and these are better barefoot shoes than my xero shoes. :)
Great company with great products. Got another pair of Razorbacks coming when the custom shops starts back up.
I love my vellies, id honestly say theyre my favourite pair of jim greens, easiest to put on and super comfy, super casual

Vellie's are fantastic for the summer! I wore a pair of Turbo Vellie's all summer... Absolutely love them.
Now that's a pair that has some character to it!

What a cool guy and he has awesome taste in footwear too!
Why no videos on the highlander? I've just bought a pair and I'm interested in seeing a video about them.
I was going to buy a pair of these Vellies on Thursday, but the site were out of size 9 UK.😢😢😢...
are you guys going to be restocking rambler vellies or rough out vellies in other colors in the near future

I received my tan vellie today i'm so excited it fits me nicely 🐸 i predate on other vellie brands😊
Thanks for the support and all the best for the journey ahead! Please get in touch should you have any questions along the way🐸
BFVellie please :) i love the three eyelet
Love it all as usual. 🐸🐸🐸

What product are you treating those boots with? Is this you own brand?

I have like 5 pairs of Jim greens so I'm not wearing any pair everyday. I rotate them so I don't think any of them are going to wear out anytime soon
They looked pretty good to me.. besides a good conditionong job they looked just fine
I would love to see the barefoot African ranger in an 8 or 10 inch tall. Love the boots you guys make
I placed a custom order of their Baobab made on the barefoot last with the barefoot sole. It cost an extra 70 bucks (US) but idk where else I can find a true barefoot boot constructed in a resoleable way.
they made one called the ar8 which stood for African ranger 8".
They actually made exactly this boot, I think it came out a couple months ago.

Where can you buy those in Europe?

I’ve got thin hells @ arches, wide toes. Clown shaped feet. Would Jim Greens be overall too wide you think?

Is that mink oil?
Good day, the product used in video was a bees wax leather food 🐸
@@JimGreenFootwearOfficial Thank you. I just got my frist pair of Vellies in suade but probably won't ware them until after rain season.
Wax and oil BEFORE they get dried out.
Купил такие ботинки в этом году. Попал под дождь - ноги мокрые. Не выдержали испытания погодой Санкт-Петербурга. Не для сырого климата
you guys are cranking out video after video but can't respond to emails about ordering boots. are you growing too fast?

You need a shoe brush for that job instead of a rag.
better than wearing slippers
man those boots are so dry I bet they looked dry again after 20 minutes
