I originally bought it to use for hiking, landscaping, and random light jobs at work. Being a flexible and lightweight boot, I thought it would serve me nicely in that role. My dedicated work boots started wearing out around the time I was getting these, and I can't afford to have a bunch of boots to wear for different purposes. So these ended up being a pleasant all-around boot for me, and the timing lined up with the Thunderdome.
I used the foot length chart on Jim Green's website and found that a half size should be a good fit. I wear a 13D in most things (only because 12.5 normally isn't an option), and I find myself wishing I could go down half a size. This is a roomy last in the toes but snugs up nicely around the heel. The 12.5 JG last fit me perfectly.
I watched Jim Green's video about the Barefoot African Ranger, and I pre-ordered it on their website.
