Jim Green Numzaan

African Buffalo Skin

VERY happy with the look of these guys. Excited to break them in. The buffalo leather feels very tough but not overly stiff.

Why I own this

I wanted a tough boot for daily wear, long walks, etc. Needed it to be able to get dirty and scuffed and clean up well enough for semi-dressy occasions. Went with all the leather I could for the sake of longevity, since I don’t have the cash to be ordering custom boots left and right. Loved the look of the JG buffalo leather I’d seen, and loved the story behind it.

How I sized

Ordered a stockman (chelsea on the same last) before. The first I ordered was too small, but the second fit. Jim Green has a great return policy in the states.
