Russell or Courteney - Safari Boots...

[rgsiii]

Ordered a pair of Russell boots at a NRA convention in Houston. They arrived months after the agreed on time and well after the planned hunt. They were nothing like was ordered. They were returned and months later the "corrected" boots were received. The looked like they were $20 boots.

I will never say a good word about Russell.

 

[Tokoloshe Safaris]

I only own and wear Courtney boots. Like many of you I have found that they offer no arch support. So I use arch support in mine nothing fancy. The other issue toe room. Courtney boot company are using newly designed lasts that give ample toe room. For the last three years I have used a new model I am not sure of the model name, but they are similar to the Safari except they use a heavy canvas instead of leather in part of the construction. They are cooler, lighter and less expensive. As far as wear goes they are as good as new.
