Russell Moccasin Co. Backcountry
Walnut TimberjackMy mocs have been an incredible companion over the last six months. They've hiked mountains, harvested firewood, hunted elk, cleared snow, crossed the country a couple times, strolled around town, stuck to the floor of a dive bar or two, and fit in at the office. I wanted a go-anywhere-do-anything boot and these did not disappoint. After many pairs of PNW boots, these made me a WI believer.

Why did you choose this item?
I wanted an easy wearing everyday boot. Something that I could wear outside, but also would work in town. If I'm being honest, I was also a bit burnt out on the break in and plank feel of PNW style boots and wanted to try something different. The true moc construction and the history of the brand both led me to the purchase.
How did you determine your size?
I used the virtual sizing tool on Russel's website - it gave me a few different recommendations, so I didn't have much faith in it. Ultimately, I found the sizing charts to be useful. They put me at a 10D (half size down from brannock) which worked for me.
What was the ordering process?
I ordered in stock boots from their website and received them a week or so later. Super easy.
