i have a pair of Russell boots i purchased in 1971 - still functional boots.

I like to see y'all having a presence on UA-cam.
Thanks! We are certainly working on it!
I want a pair of Russell's badly but I get one word responses from their customer support which hurts my confidence in buying their product online. It doesn't keep me from checking their newsletters/emails & site weekly for what's in-stock. Keep the YT content coming!
Shoot me an email luke@russellmoccasin.com if you have some specific questions.👍

I've gotten very detailed responses from them which helped me feel confident in placing an order.
This is the best video on fitment I have yet seen. I have long respected Russell's approach to boot and shoe making and aspire to one day own a pair of your fine footwear.
I’m about to pull the trigger on a pair. Was happy to see this link.
Love your boots!
Very good-looking boots! Also, some excellent tips about lacing and tongue and feet placement.
Luke, the way you have your boots laced is kind of the traditional way of lacing which is up and over. When the are laced this way and you pull the laces tight and turn the laces loose they will loosen back a little. If you lack the first pair of eyelet like you have but lace the next eyelets over the top and up the rest of the way then when start pulling slack and lightning going up then as you pull slack then the lacer will stay tight and not loosen.

What is that pacific fold for? Seems like you are sacrificing coverage of the tongue! Why not just put the excess off to each side to catch debris etc?!!
Why don’t shoe companies just build boots to the brannock measurements? Cracking nuclear code is easier than buying a pair of footwear that fit properly. Standardized industry, far to simple.
From the outside it can seem simple, but footwear fit is not just about length and width, its about volume. Unless you can standardize the last itself and its shape/volume, footwear designed for different purposes will always fit differently.
@@w.c.russellmoccasinco Ok so that’s interesting, and something I hadn’t considered. I ordered a pair of premiere build backcountry four weeks ago after having my feet measured, and using the online device. I’m confident I’ll like the boots, thanks.
Its not a standard issue every style will have a different fit
I want a pair of your oneidas and bird shooters but the sizing of your footwear is quite confusing. I wear Allen Edmonds dress shoes in 9 3e and Alden boots in 8.5 ee/eee so I’d think RM would be in 8.5 ee or so but after trying the scanning size feature, I was assigned a size of 8 e. I’m so confused what to believe given that my AE and Alden sizes are based off the brannock device.
Usually, it’s your toes that are the widest part of your foot, not the ball
If you are a duck, then yes ;)
@@w.c.russellmoccasinco now thats a good joke
Would you recommend doing the pacific fold on the PH model
Thanks
I do. The side tuck works good, especially with a tongue saver/kiltie but a fold does a great job of keeping the sides from
pinching.
How do they size? I wear 10.5 d in Redwings Iron Ranger and Moc Toe. I wasn’t to pull the trigger on the Earl Shaffers 75th anniversary boot
I’m on the same boat as you. I have 10D in Red Wing Moc Toes and I have no idea which size should I go for..
Try our sizing scan tool. Its extremely accurate and a whole lot better than me guessing based on another company’s lasts. The tool is on all product pages.
@@w.c.russellmoccasincoused the scan tool. Seems off. It sized me 7.5D. My brannock is 8.5EE. brooks running shoes 9wide. PNW boots 7.5EE.
My friend left a message on your answering machine over a week ago. He was ready to buy but he had a sizing question and he hasn’t gotten a response
We have been in the middle of moving buildings and the phones were out all of last week. Please ask your friend to reach out by email.
they make good boots but narrow
god i want a pair do you ship to england?
Sure do!
Sadly am asking you, why don’t you ship to Malaysia….?
We do. Contact our customer service team via email if you have issues
@@w.c.russellmoccasinco I’ve emailed them 3 or 2 times before this, a few month back and recently but no reply. I will email them again soon. Thanks.
Great boot! Way to expensive for the average joe! Rich people get everything in life from head to toe! = life sucks
