I have worn many boots, from keens to Pacific Northwest loggers, work boots, and moc toes, and the Russell Moccasin is easily the comfiest boot I’ve ever worn. I’ve had my pair for two months now, and I have no regrets about my purchase.

Great Boot
I was a little hesitant to order a seven inch tall boot. I was afraid they would be too short. They are actually perfect. Great customer service! Rob was a huge help. Boots are very well made. Thank you for continuing to build a high quality product and employing American craftspeople. Well worth the money.

Excellent build and fit
