Let customers speak for us
This fine oil can take an old pair of boots and spruce them up just right for another time around the sun. If you’ve got an aging and worn pair of boots with chamois leather, treat them with Russoil and watch them come back to life.
This awesome coffee mug is old school material and hefty in the hand. I love it. It will hold just the right amount of coffee and all you’ll have to do is add cream.
Very nice boot/shoes. My fourth pair of Russell’s. These took a few weeks to break in properly since the top is ankle height and needed to be softened up a little. After that they now fit perfectly and are ridiculously comfortable. I often wear them all day. I’ve walked on five to six mile hikes with them and no issues. I mainly use these for more casual wear, visiting friends and family, around town, dog walking, etc. I use my taller Russell boots for more serious outdoor purposes. Sizing for me, like all my Russell’s, is one full size smaller than sneaker size. Same sizing as other high quality boots such as JK’s. I’m very glad I purchased these. So comfortable. Highly recommended.
I bought these for my wife. She says the size range for a women's small is perfect. They fit her 6 1/2 EEEE feet comfortably and don't wad up under her foot or squish her toes. She was very happy that they feel very cushy and don't rub, so no blisters when she wears her boots.
Awesome year round wear in South Carolina. Great in the sand and mud. High quality construction and great customer service answering sizing questions prior to buying. Went down a half size and wearing boot socks for a perfect fit!
It's nice to find a simple item representing a company that is actually made here in the U.S.A. A little pride in backing up your products does not hurt!
My PHs are now 6 months old. I wore them out the front door of the Berlin school/shoe factory and haven't worn another shoe since. I had a fail on the computer sizing process of my PHs and Chelsea expertly assisted me with one of the last pair (standard pinking top) of Horween leather PHs.
I have spent my life outdoors and this is the best way I can condense what these PHs are; they are like lace up house slippers with just the right, for me, cushion and tread. Never any pressure at the top, great for driving. I'm sitting in a recliner right now, have been for a couple of hours, with my boots on. I can't say that about any other pair of boots or shoes I've ever owned. No, I would not carry a 40-pound pack across a 2-mile scree slope in these boots...but I haven't done that in a while. We have traveled, by car, from Berlin to Lake Placid, to home in Colorado, Palm Springs, Lake Havasu, Vegas, Biosphere 2, Nashville, Ennis, Mt. Spokane, WA., Newport, Or., Brady, Tx. and more. I'm not bragging, I'm saying I openly admit these boots won't do everything, they've just done everything, admirably, that I've needed them to do.
I don't have any pictures, just look at a new pair.
Wore the backcountry boots boar hunting in Tennessee last weekend, walked 10 miles the first day through mountains, mud, water and rocks, you name it. They did great and my feet were not tired at all. The insoles definitely add a bit of comfort and help with longer walks. This is my second pair of Russell’s and would certainly recommend to anyone.
As described. Im certain that I will get many years of use out of it.ive never used a boot dryer before, so i guess we will have to wait and see if it has any effect on the longevity of my boots.
I’ve bought these for all my boots. I’ve punctured many boots from barbed wire fence to metal sticking out of the ground. These give me another layer of protection.
Plus they look great!
I purchased this to tighten up my boots and they worked perfectly. They also have made the boots a little softer to walk in. Definitely recommend these for anyone who’s boots might be a hair to be!
It’s a Legacy brand hat with Russel Moccasin’s embroidery on it. Besides the bacl of the hat sating made in the US, which this particular item is not, it’s a good hat and you know what youre getting. I would definitely buy it again as i love the art they put on the front. The canvas is a lighter brown than I thought upon looking at their photos online, bust it still looks good.
Beautiful belt. The leather is top notch. This belt will be braving the concrete jungle of NYC.
