Comfortable, durable, and easy to break in. Great for daily wear especially for long walking days.

Comfortable, rugged boots that fit like a glove and helped me appreciate a nice pair of boots
Jim Green African Ranger in Fudge Crazy HorseBy jfanstill • April 2, 2024"I have worn these boots just about every day since the Thunderdome started. I manage the facility maintenance at multiple dog kennels, and over the past six months, these boots have been on a journey. I've worn these boots while installing chainlink fence, building retaining walls, trenching, digging up old gravel for fence repairs, replacing failed sump pumps during flash flooding, replacing a well pump, water heater, troubleshooting electrical gremlins in our appliances, roof repairs, soffit and gutter repair, months of landscaping and cleanup, framing walls while renovating our kennels, concrete crack repairs, installing new drywall, waterproofing and sealing kennels, painting, light metal fabrication and welding jobs, fleet vehicle maintenance, and a host of other things. When I wasn't at work, I liked wearing these for odd jobs around the house, taking my son to parks, hiking, trips to grocery stores, etc. There really weren't many times when I didn't wear these. They've been through dry and wet conditions, cold and hot, and any combination of them. They've hiked trails in seven states, been to airshows, museums, and have helped me with my photography along the way...."Read the full review
Great boot at a great value crafted by great people in a great company with great customer service.
Jim Green African Ranger Barefoot Boot in Fudge Crazy HorseBy Willow • April 6, 2024"As a foreword, I have never worked in this pair.
I wore these to do everything in my life, from light hiking to walking in extreme weathers of wet, hot, humid and dry (Australia, baby) and they held up fairly well.
Given that the stitching and midsole are waxed when received, these keep everything below the ankle fairly dry in rain and puddles.
Sand, dirt and small rocks stay out for the most part, and they wouldn't be able to get in at all had I gotten my right size.
Extremely comfortable for everyday use and very (surprisingly) light...."Read the full review

A ribbiting good time!
Jim Green African Ranger in Fudge Crazy HorseBy basicmechengineer • April 5, 2024"I mainly wore my boots to work, which is an office environment. Outside of work, I wore them everywhere I could. From going to the store, walking and playing with the dog, and even going to Mass. These boots have trekked through woods and fields, hunting small game. Worked around my in-laws farm, checked fields, cleaned grain bins, fed steers, and repaired and moved equipment around. They have put up with all the weather Mother Nature could think of, everything from rain to snow, hail to ice storms, the random occasion when the sun decides to peek through, and A LOT of mud...."Read the full review
