The Boot that Puts Boots onto Rangers

50% of Rangers don’t have access to sufficient Boots and Gear
and over 40% are required to purchase their own Boots.
With the future of our wilderness areas in the hands of those with boots on the ground Jim Green Footwear and  The Game Rangers Association of Africa (GRAA) have come together to make sure this issue is addressed.
Inadequate gear for rangers leads to a low morale and effects rangers wellbeing. With Rangers being on the front line of our conservation areas a quality pair of boots is essential for everyday tasks
We put out a survey to Rangers from Across Africa and from that pulled together various focus points as to what is needed in the ultimate all round Ranger Boot. From that we give to you the African Ranger – A Boot Designed By Rangers For Rangers
Follow our journey through our social channels or contact us for further information.
  • The boot is designed with 3 main focus areas: Comfort and Durability while at an Affordable price
  • The wedge sole is designed to grip while the softer rubber compound keeps the Ranger quiet when walking through the African bush
  • Toe, Heel and Eyelet area manufactured with a double layer of 2.2mm full grain leather for added durability
  • Heel and Toe stiffeners for added durability, support and protection
  • Soft leather collar and tongue for comfort and weight reduction
  • A steel shank between the insole board and sole offers extra support and stability
  • Heavy duty hooks and eyelets to secure feet
  • Insole is secured to the upper with a double stitched 2.2mm braided nylon cord
  • Can be resoled – Stitch down construction
The best way to preserve your Jim Greens is through regular and correct polishing. Water, heat and wear remove the natural oil from the leather, so when the tiny fibres dry out they become hard, brittle and break easily, thereby shorten the life of the leather.
For our leather boots we recommend any natural shoe polish found at your local store. For our suede options we suggest light brushing to remove dirt and a scotchguard for longer protection.
After a long day in wet conditions and you requiring your boots early the next morning, the worst possible solution is to artificially dry your boots. Leather fibres burn easily – especially when wet and therefore should never be left near a heater, placed in your oven or left in direct sunlight. For the best results, footwear should be dried out slowly and never subjected to any extreme heat. Should you work in constantly wet conditions, it is best to alternate between two or more pairs of our Jim Green boots.
We realise that buying footwear online is a daunting task and we are often asked to recommend a size by new Jim Green customers. If you happen to purchase a pair of Jim Green boots online and they do not fit, we will happily exchange them for you. If the measurements fall in-between the lengths provided, we do offer half sizes on certain styles. We can recommend a size but we can’t guarantee the fit.

  1. Greg

    Awesome fit, very comfortable and well worth the money. Happy to have supported the African Game Rangers Association.

    So good I bought two pairs! One light and one dark brown. I love the Fudge Crazy Horse leather. Doesn’t need polish and brushes clean with a suede cleaner and wire brush. Probably the most comfortable boots I’ve worn! Good for the bush and equally good with a pair of jeans. And best of all it’s for a good cause to put more boots on Africa’s rangers through the Game Rangers Association of Africa. Well done Jim Green on an awesome new product.

  3. Janco Vorster

    Great pair of boots
    Extensively used in rugged terrain in Karoo and Kalahari

    They offer great stability yet leaving some mobility over higher ankled boots

    Sole brace helps with bridge support
    Soft rubber sole offers great grip on most surfaces
    Please note wet conditions are not the best

    Over all
    Best pair of boots for “all terrain”
    As for comfort…GREAT!
    Once you have them, you find an excuse to wear them.

    a great desert boot! Plenty of width in the toe box makes it a true foot shape.

    Fantastic boots!

    My wife bought me a pair of Ranger boots for my birthday. I’ve only had them for a couple of days but so far they are incredibly comfortable.

    When I first tried them on I thought they were too big as I was unused to the amount of room at the toes. Lacing them and walking in them was a revelation. No slippage, no rubbing anywhere and ridiculously comfortable.

    I realise I’ve only been walking in them for two days but every other boot or shoe I’ve worn for the same time period has showed it’s true colours by then.

    Beautifully made and good to look at too. Very happy with these boots. Would definitely recommend them
