The Bush War Boot – born in battle, shaped by history, built for the bush.
Inspired by the legendary combat boots worn by soldiers in Africa's Bush Wars, the Bush War Boot is a tribute to decades of robust field practice – evolved for the modern outdoor enthusiast.
Every detail serves a purpose: a fusion of classic military design and Jim Green's proven craftsmanship.
This boot brings the past into the present – with military-proven functionality, durable, locally sourced leather, and a construction that relies on tradition.
A boot for those who demand more – whether on duty, at the shooting range, or in everyday life with tough demands.
Made from high-quality leather and reinforced in high-wear areas, the Bush War Boot offers exceptional breathability and resilience.
A double leather layer at the heel, an integrated canvas layer in the toe area, and thermoplastic reinforcement provide stability and protection – without sacrificing comfort.
Its distinctive double-strap system at the ankle is more than just a visual highlight:
It offers proven advantages – additional ankle stability, protection from dirt, and a custom fit that adapts with wear.
Originally worn by elite units in Southern Africa, this system provided crucial support under extreme conditions – a feature that is still important today for rangers, farmers, and outdoor professionals.
A vegetable-tanned leather midsole and a genuine crepe sole provide reliable grip, durability, and a direct ground feel.
Inside, a wooden shank provides the necessary structure for long periods on foot, while an integrated leather heel pad ensures noticeable comfort with every step.
The Bush War Boot is completed by a surrounding double stitchdown construction and a fully gusseted tongue –
fully welted, fully resoleable, built for many years of use.
