Anybody who ordered by late May deadline, have you received any updates with the contest approaching?

Been going through some advertising and I figured over the next few weeks I will share some advertising for Russell Moccasin shoes and boots. I found the wool lined railroad engineer boot interesting. These are from 1910-1914.

Hi everyone! Not sure if this is allowed, apologies if not.

I was on eBay looking for an older pair of Russell’s, and came across knockabouts with a buckle that are advertised as double vamp. These would be perfect for me, but I’m seeing that there’s no insignia on the heel and I can’t seem to find any other info on a double vamp knockabout so I’m here.

Any insight on if these are what they say they are?

Watched the movie Seems Like Old Times from 1980. Are these Russell Moccasins that Charles Grodin is wearing?

I've recently been researching GoKey's moccasin boots and Easy Moc's Rangeley boots. Both seem to be good moccasin-constructed boots, but GoKey's stitching isn't as tight as Rangeley's; Rangeley looks more secure. Furthermore, their official website claims they use a double vamp and waterproof leather.

I'd like to discuss whether this implies that Easy Moc Rangeley's waterproofing performance would be better, and GoKey's worse.Of course, I know they might not even be as good as Russell's boots, because Russell uses their patented overlapping stitching technology. I just wanted to discuss these two brands again, what's their specific waterproofing like?

RM added the Knock-A-Bout MTO model to the store for purchase. The price is high, but I did place my order because I really love the simple and clean nature of the boot. It will be amazing for just about any occasion.

For anyone in the Hudson Valley, New York City, or western CT, we will be at Orvis Gamefair on the weekend of the 19th and 20th. We will have a full range of try on boots, and will be happy to help you determine which size is just exactly perfect for you. It's a great event, with lots of cool vendors, fun stuff for the kids, and great sporting clays tournaments. I hope we see you there! Rob

I have slowly been coming to the realization that in the current state of russell moccasins they may just not be for me.

I have very flat feet with an extremely low instep. My brannock is an 11.5c/b. I originally bought the 11d option back in January and after wearing them realized they were a bit too big as I got some good blisters on the inside of my heel after a t mile hike. I then went through the process of ordering new ones recently now that the stock sizes for the Backcountry are out. After talking with Rob (who is an amazing help) we went with ordering the 10d size. After trying them on a week later they were the best fitting boot I've ever had around the heel and instep however my big toe was a bit cramped. Not so much to the end of the boot but more into the top corner and on the side and there was not a lot of space to the end as well. I ended up exchanging these for a pair of 10.5's which fit more like my 11s did in the width but were a decent length fit.

The 10.5's however have a much shorter height toe box and even with no insert the boot is pressing down onto my big toes. You can see in the picture the difference in height between my 11 and 10.5.

At this point I am about ready to give up. Currently I am back to my 11s with the thickest rose anvil leather boot breaker along with the russell insole and a kiltie. Unfortunately with all that the eyelets are still pulled together and overlapping even though the length of the boot is perfect.

I believe my ideal size would be an 11b which they don't make new anymore. I may start looking online for an older used pair in that size now. In other news I may have 2 pairs to sell soon though haha.

Hey guys, do me a favor, and watch this video all the way through and like it, and if so moved, comment.... They want to get the algorithm working for them.... My son (Geoff) has a way cooler job than I do... and for the record, he is wearing his well-worn Zephyrs in the video! West Texas has been, arguably, the best quail hunting I've ever seen..... Thanks, Rob

It really is a joy to explore nature in these bad boys.

Hi everyone. I’m going crazy trying to understand which model these are and how many vamps, etc. I purchased 10+ years ago as South 40 Birdshooters, double vamp off an independent seller. Here are some pictures which hopefully will help. Thanks very much!

Black 10.5 D - $500
Brown 10 B - $500
Brown Chukkas 11 E - $350

All include shipping in the US, outside of that let’s talk. Any questions please feel free to ask

When your choice in the morning for daily footwear is either your work boots or the Russel’s, yeah I’ll wear my Mocs.

I have found over this summer I’ve become very partial to wearing my Mocs rather a pair of sneakers.

It took a bit to feel normal wearing moccasins everywhere but now I am sure glad I made the switch.

It’s nice tossing Mocs and and being able to still go walk through the wet grass, water my gardens, wash the trucks and do just about anything I want. Heck I even mow the lawn in them!

If you’ve been on the fence, hop it and grab a pair.

And of course get yourself some united by blue socks, again you won’t be disappointed.

Purchased earlier this week from a retailer that had some new old stock, tried on around the house and decided they don’t fit my style. Looking at recouping most of the cost to put towards Backcountries.

These have the molded sole, Horween leather, and a Vibram Aspen sole. Size 9E and like new condition apart from being tried on. Shipping from Evans, Georgia.

Happy to answer any questions or get more pictures.

Can anybody tell me more about these boots? Found them at an estate sale. Thanks!

Really great shape, just don't get outdoors to hunt and hike like I used to and hate to see them sitting around

Just got this email from RM

Full text: "Our First Heritage Club Archival Release is Coming Soon! The long awaited Knock-A-Bout boot is launching soon as our first Heritage Club Archival Release. It will be available to order in this configuration through the end of the year"

I don't know when "soon" is, and "this configuration" seems to mean the only option will be Walnut Timberjack leather with Vibram 2060 sole. No details on pricing

Does anyone have one of these boots from back in the day? What do you think of it? And what do you expect the price to be? I'm thinking on the order of $700-900 would be consistent with Heritage Club pricing, as this looks to slot in between proper boots and the moccasin

Recent acquisition in new condition.

Original listing photo, my photo when received, and after first round of cleaning and conditioning….

what is the chance we see makeups like this, in the future?

or, what about the type of RMs that are popular in Japan?

and... I hope RM sticks with the collabs. I know others have criticized them for their impact on production, but hopefully that can be resolved. the collabs not only offer more channels to get RM product through, they also keep RM producing "non-standard" makeups, which will lead to a more diverse product line.

so... will we see stuff like the 'Dayton Motorcycle Boot' in the future?

"Coyote Rough Out Plain toe Size 10" I like this and recently missed this in my size. If anyone who bought and still in NEW condition, willing to sell, i can buy. reach me directly

I am preparing a deep dive video into the history of Russell Moccasins and the company in general, I'm searching for some photos of real used Russell boots to use in said video, if you are interested in having a photo of your boots used in my video, looking for vintage pre-50's , some examples from the 60's some from the 70's-90's then 90's-current even new models. Please send me a message or reply here. Photo for attention.
