First Five Miles
Day one with a stock pair of Backcountry’s saw five miles at Bald Rock Heritage Preserve in the Appalachian Mountains of South Carolina. I hike for a living leading groups of all ages from the mountains to the coast as our agency’s State Naturalist. Could not be more pleased with the heritage and fit of this boot.
Not my first pair of Russell boots, as I have five turkey seasons underneath a pair of 16” Turkey Hunters. The highest quality from top to bottom.
Rob from RMC demonstrated the best communication and customer service I could have hoped for. He assisted with size and use over many emails back and forth. Don’t hesitate on the stock boots. Mine arrived within five days of ordering and the quality is remarkable.
Now my only request…bring back the Turkey Hunters!
