What size am I?

  • Stand vertically on a piece of paper and trace your feet. Then measure the maximum length in cm and determine your UK size
  • Please do not add anything to this. Yes, your foot needs some space because the foot moves in the shoe as it rolls. This has already been taken into account in the table when converting.
  • If you have wide feet, you don't need to add anything, as almost all Jim Green shoes are already wide. Wide width EE (almost all Jim Green models). Normal width D (e.g. Shoellie, Baobab, Numzaan) .
  • Please call us if you have any doubts. Shop with peace of mind as you can exchange your size at any time.

What soles are there?

Here is an explanation of all Jim Green soles. You can find out which sole this model comes with in the item description.

JG Sole – This sole is our lugged variant and was developed for grip. It is made of real rubber and feels firm to provide stability underfoot. The JG Natural Rubber option is softer, but still offers the same properties. Best suited for loose gravel surfaces, rocky terrain, uneven terrain, and challenging landscapes.

OR Sole – This sole is designed for a combination of grip, comfort, and speed. It is made of real rubber and offers a softer feel for greater walking comfort. Best suited for sandy areas, long days on your feet, fast hikes, urban areas. A great lightweight hiker.

BR Sole – This sole is our all-rounder option and was developed for durability in urban and outdoor environments. It is made of real natural rubber and has a firm grip to provide stability underfoot. Best suited for days between office and outdoor activities.

FA Sole – This sole is our lightweight comfort variant and was developed for comfort and a slimmer look. It is made of a real, soft rubber compound and feels softer and more comfortable. Best suited for relaxed days in the city or light hikes and camping trips.

KH Sole – This sole is designed not to pick up mud and dirt during your daily activities, hence its "flat" design. It is made of real rubber and feels firm to provide stability underfoot. Best suited for muddy ground or sandy areas.

ANV Sole - The Anvil sole is designed to mimic the feel of barefoot walking on any terrain, while providing extra grip and protection. A sole without any reinforcement or stiffening.

TW Sole - This sole is our Tyre Wedge option and is designed for grip and comfort. It is a real rubber sole with a softer rubber compound to provide the best all-around performance.

Which moldings are there?

This section explains the different lasts. You can find out which last this model has in the item description.

  • JG last = EEE width

Jim Green last. Very wide fit, normal toe box height. Toe cap reinforced with thermoplastic. E.g.: Razorback, AR08. If you have wide feet, this is your last. If you have normal or narrow feet, take half to a full size smaller or switch to a shoe with an ASHM last.

  • ZD last = EEE width

Zero Drop last. Very wide fit, normal toe box height. Unstructured construction without reinforcement. All Barefoot Boots. If you have wide feet, this is your last. If you have normal or narrow feet, take half to a full size smaller or switch to a shoe with an ASHM last.

  • STC last = EE width.

Steel Toe Cap last. Wide fit, high toe box. Originally developed for shoes with steel toe caps to create more space for the steel toe cap in the toe box, this last is now also used in other models without a steel toe cap. Like the JG last, but a touch narrower (EE width). If you have wide feet, this is also your last. If you have normal or narrow feet, take half to a full size smaller or switch to a shoe with an ASHM last.

  • ASHM last = D width

Ashley Men last. Normal fit, normal toe box height. Toe cap reinforced with thermoplastic. E.g.: Numzaan, Schollie. Normal width last, higher instep. If you have normal or narrow feet, this is your last. If you have wide feet, take half to a full size larger or switch to a shoe with a JG, ZD or STC last.

The Boot That Gives Rangers New Boots

50% of rangers do not have access to adequate boots and equipment
and over 40% have to buy their own boots.

With the future of our wilderness areas in the hands of those on the ground, Jim Green Footwear and the Game Rangers Association of Africa (GRAA) have partnered to ensure this issue is addressed.

Inadequate ranger equipment leads to poor morale and impacts ranger well-being. As rangers are on the front lines in our conservation areas, a pair of high-quality boots is essential for everyday tasks.

We conducted a survey among rangers across Africa and compiled various focus points on what is required for the ultimate all-round ranger boot. From this, we present to you the African Ranger – A boot designed by rangers for rangers

  • 3 main focus areas: comfort, durability, and affordable price
  • 2.2mm full-grain leather for added durability
  • Double-layered leather on heel and toe to prevent increased abrasion
  • Heel and toe stiffeners between leather layers for added stability
  • Soft leather collar and tongue for comfort and weight reduction
  • Steel shank between insole and sole provides extra support and stability
  • Stitchdown construction, can be easily resoled
  • Double stitched with 2.2mm braided nylon cord
  • OR Sole:Genuine rubber wedge sole for best grip, comfort, and speed on sandy terrains, long hiking days, speedhikes, and urban areas
  • The softer rubber compound (Shore hardness 55-65) ensures the ranger remains quiet when hiking through the African bush.
  • Robust hooks and eyelets to secure the feet
  • Runs relatively large. If you are between two sizes, take the smaller one
  • STC Last = EE (wide fit, high and rounded toe box)
  • Made in South Africa
