Jim Green 719 in Bronco Oily Pull UpBy TangibleLily929 • April 5, 2026"From the hot weather in Houston, to the tropical humid rainy season in Merida, Mexico, I had the pleasure of wearing these wonderful 719’s for six good months. I transition to live in Mexico and walk everywhere. To work, or the gym, it outlasted anything I threw at it. It has gone through wet, hot, concrete or even CrossFit on a gym floor. I trained worked and trained every other day in these pair of Bronco leather boots, walking 4 miles to and from the gym every time...."Read the full review

Daily Dad Boots 10:10
Jim Green Razorback in Fudge Crazy HorseBy Max • April 1, 2026"These have been all day comfort working indoors, and totally capable outdoors.
Just about every other day, I've taken my toddler on short 1-3 hour hikes before I go to work. We live on the PNW coast, so we frequent the beach and our muddy mountain ranges.
It's been a typical rainy season, so I've had the boots soaked by rain countless times now. Most of the time, the leather just gets wet, but several times they've been completely waterlogged.
Other than the little toddler adventures, daily wear has been pretty ordinary...."Read the full review

Rugged boot in the office
Jim Green Numzaan in Jim Green Walnut Veg TanBy Dennis • April 5, 2025"Mostly, I used the boot as a every day boot in the office or just going out of the house. But I also took them on long walks, mushroom hunting, and further activities that are not so hard on the boot. The longest I had them on my feet at one time were during the IWA 2025 in Nürnberg where I wore them for almost 20 hours straight...."Read the full review
Sizing
Jim Green Turbo Vellie in Black Full GrainBy natanjp • November 8, 2024"I wore these out in the city of the first time to a work meeting and then I went for a walk in Dolores park. The sizing was really bothering me particularly in the heels but then I realized I could just wear these without the insoles because of the leather lasting board. I hope this change will be fruitful and wear down less on my heels. I’m a little bit sad though because those insoles are pretty barn nice...."Read the full review
Good wide toe box for a more natural toe splay. Leather held up well to a good wash and wax.
