    I am lucky enough to have two pairs of Baobab boots. Houston Brown, and Houston Charcoal. They are definitely my favorite Jim green boots. They are very versatile, I can wear them business casual to work. hiking, and everything in between.

      Nice! I never saw the charcoal for sale

    I believe you are supposed to tuck the tung in normally. That channel was just the result of having the piece of lether holding the eyelets being replaceable in case it broke.

      That makes sense, thank you for the feedback.

    Good review. So you ordered your brannock size and fit was good?

      Yes, I ordered my standard bannock size. Thanks for watching!

    I’d take them on a rougher environment like a quick walk over a rough place, let the sole wear a little and the squeaking should go… atleast that’s what happened with my AR8s

    Curious, how wide are your feet? I'm an 11 3E and was mistakenly sent a 12 and they were still a bit narrow for me. In Carl Murawski's podcast with Gareth he alludes to a wider baobab/numzaan boot coming out down the line.

      My feet are 2E, the Baobabs/Numzaan both fit well after some break in. Those 719 boots they showed on the video version of the podcast, I am in for one for sure!

    I am in the market for new boots and recently found Jim Green and like their boots.
    Depending on the boot manufacturer, I wear a 4E/6E width, and am still looking at reviews and found yours.
    I know that the leather will stretch somewhat during the break-in, but I'm still undecided on which pair to buy.

      @@Stoney_AKA_James I would look at the Jim Green boots built in the JG last because they are wide, although listed as 2E they seem wider.

      While serving in the Rangers, we were issued Danner boots.
      Great boots, but unfortunately their 2E widths weren't wide enough.
      I contacted James Green asking about their widths and if they make boots that would fit.
      I really like their boot designs, and am partial to their Razorbacks, I may custom order a pair of these boots if I can get a wide boot.
