[@WolfMimirMori]

Keep the videos on one channel, I want one simple channel with everything there.

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Agreed 🙌

[@I_am_Mr.555]

I agree, I don’t want to miss something because I forgot to check another channel. It’s too easy to search for a video on just the one channel.

[@chrisstover2976]

I just sent an email requesting a custom order, AR 8 wedge, but I need a lug sole in order to meet wildland fire standards. The bare foot 8 looks great. Also that new lug looks great. Suggestions?

[@kd5byb]

Agreed!!!

[@kylephelps7817]

Agreed! Everything on one channel!

[@taargustaargus3139]

Definitely keep all your vids on one channel. It's better for your channel and also easier for people to find stuff.

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Noted and Agreed, thanks for the feedback 💪🐸

[@Infinityedge00]

Love my barefoot rangers so much I was thinking of doing a special order 8” barefoot boot. Guess I’ll wait to see what is mass produced. Please offer it in your veg-tan walnut. Please please please

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

We are currently working on our final designs for the 8" Barefoot and then will determine our leathers we shall offer the boot in, the above has been noted thank you for the feedback 🐸 💪

[@mrhounddog8271]

I bought a pair of the barefoot rangers and love them. I wore them on a 10 day bird hunt, where we walked 12 to 15 miles a day, and my feet loved them. I used a short gaiter and tied my pants legs low to keep out debris. However, like the post above I was considering special ordering an 8" barefoot boot. This is great news, and you will have sold a pair in advance when they come out. Two requests: 1) Consider a padded collar, which will aid in blousing pants and holding them in place. 2) Consider the Munson Army Last, which is allows for a completely straight big toe. All in all, your boots are fantastic. Thanks for all you do.

[@antuansteyn1444]

1 channel please. The adventures, the factory and everything together is what makes the brand so relatable and compelling. Like SABC 2: Simunye, we are one 😊

[@TheNinjaSasquatch5]

8 inch ranger in bearfoot and a moc toe? Cant wait to give you more of my money. Just keep making them wide please, yalls boots and shoes have been heaven for my ee feet

[@oscarbear7498]

A boot like that would be very cool

[@excusemewtf6252]

That houston black Numzaan without the toecap looks absolutely stunning, we need that!

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

💚

[@ottovonezwin]

I'm so down bad for that boot.

[@fatkid8523]

I like the Houston green with no toe cap! My gf would probably like them

[@Benjels480]

Can’t wait to see the moc toe!

[@jarenbosman9769]

Same

[@kylephelps7817]

Agreed!

[@HariOmRadhaKrishna]

The 8 inch, barefoot AR's look splendid. I hope that they're available in Green.

[@RickySterling]

Wedge sole moc toe please!

[@devlin2427]

More wide options please.

[@andrewlunger2698]

Yes! Please!

[@ThunderstoneWV]

Moc toe! Perfect. The African rangers toe box are to short for me. I look forward to a moc.

[@ggmanatee]

Honestly, I'd love to get a shirt or flannel with Jim Green's logo on it. Expanding merch might be something worth considering.

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

We are looking into expanding our accessories department in 2024, keep your eyes peeled 👀

[@philbled]

I hope we get belts soon 😃

[@jacobkoen8994]

I love my barefoot rangers and I can’t wait for an 8” version!

[@czgunner]

Finally! A tall, zero drop leather boot! Thank you!!!!!

[@eTexNerd]

Keep it all in one channel. If you want to, use playlists to group similar topics: one for custom boot of the week, another for adventures, another for standard product info, etc etc. That would allow viewers to binge on a particular branch if they want. You already have a few playlists started. Keep up the great work!

[@YouCanChangeYourWorldToday]

Black looks more versatile for other environments and occasions while the other colors look specifically for outdoors and casual activities. I’m buying black for sure !

[@b.lot.2055]

The all black version, please. Maybe with black anodised metal parts, which will get blank again through use. I can waer it in office as well as going to a metal concert or having a walk outside. Cheers from Munich.

[@hunterhicks6726]

Can’t wait for those moc toes to come out! I’ll be snagging a pair of those immediately.

[@ryanhorne5746]

Looking forward to the wedge and moc toe!

[@ABowlofPho]

I'm really looking forward to those 8" barefoot boots, the shorter top was my only hesitation with the normal African Ranger Barefoots and those would pretty much solve them for what I'd like in a boot.

[@FrayAdjacentTX]

Can't wait to see Jim Green's take on a moc-toe boot! I would love to see a slate grey and blue colors in addition to the ones available now. Thanks for being so involved with your customers and being responsive to the things we would like to see! My first pair of Jim Green boots are on the way to me right now, and I'm sure they won't be the last!

[@jamesshields1969]

I totally want the 8" version of the barefoot Ranger. I own 2 of these already and these are absolutely my favorite every day and any occasion pair of footwear.

[@jamesmartyn7540]

Barefoot AR8!!! YESSSS Take my money

[@probablynotian]

An 8” barefoot in black would be a life changer. I love a taller boot and black is just a solid boot color.

[@ek-nz]

If the 8”barefoot black version could be shined and had black lace holes then it would make a very rare and awesome uniform boot too.

[@fredsvilik785]

Green Barefoot Rangers!

[@jgallant90]

Yes. All videos one one platform. I’m stoked for the moc toe!!!

[@keakantsethebe5613]

houston black Numzaan without the toecap

[@crashpix]

I think it's great to have a mix of content styles on the channel. I love coming to the channel and just looking through the different kinds of videos - it's like going to the library but with more boots and shoes.

[@marxug1]

I’m a US wearer of the walnut Numzaans, couldn’t be happier with my purchase. That said, those black Numzaans (with toecap) look soooo good…

[@jasonneedham9041]

Yessssss to an 8” barefoot boot. I’ll buy that immediately.

[@cwr8618]

South African accent is the coolest accent on earth

[@jasonneedham9041]

Keep the custom boots and the adventure on one channel. Love your content.

[@markleroux6505]

Moc-toes will be awesome ! Any plans on doing any waxed roughout leathers ?

[@jwm1893]

Glad to see the barefoot ar8! It would also be cool to have a version with a canvas upper like a jungle boot.

[@stephmurdock5343]

I got the barefoot African Ranger and love them very much! The barefoot AR 8" is beautiful! I can't wait to get Buffalo version of the AR 6" version coming...or a barefoot buffalo version of the Razorback. Also, in the Vegan vs video, you asked if folk would not mind leather that could help wildlife that might be scuffed up a bit. I'd be thrilled with that used as much as you can! Not so much for the story to tell, but for what it can do for what it can do for animals and humans to make the situation better. Thanks so much for what you are doing!

[@dannyturner7967]

Those black boots caught my eye!! Toe cap or no toe cap both look good

[@Shatsbeard]

Is that an over the ankle barefoot ranger?! Yes!

[@jfu5222]

I would like the green leather without the toecap, in my opinion it's the best looking boot you have ever proposed.

[@mattconley2815]

Can’t wait for that Jim Green MocToe!!!

[@l.aleung184]

Houston black 🙌

[@bigjackerman]

For the Houston Black boots with leather mid-soles, please consider keeping the leather mid-soles natural tan color (instead of coloring black). I think it gives a visual indication of the quality.

[@JoshuaFleming]

Super excited for those all black Numzaans! And the moc toe?? Yall can’t stop winning!

[@ponraul1221]

You guys should consider making boots in a rough-out "Sage Green" style. The United States Air Force had used this style until 2021 when they changed uniforms. Out of any style of leather or other material, I found it to be most resilient against use & abuse throughout the years (for 3 years as an electrician). It's not the prettiest, but when the goal is absolute toughness, I'm certain it's the best style out there.

[@danielmudd4263]

Would love to see you expand your barefoot line up to include your new moc toe, slip on (outback), vellie, and numzaan.

[@bootstraps2346]

I have a custom pair of shoellies with the BF last/sole on order, and a friend has a pair of barefoot outbacks on order as well. Definitely seems like JG is the best equipped company to kick ass with high quality barefoot style shoes.

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Will get there one boot at a time💪 been a great journey the barefoot range

[@lachnessmonster1]

I've been waiting for BF outbacks and/or vellies to show up on their site, didn't realize they could be custom ordered!

[@Adam-hs1ft]

​@@bootstraps2346 I am looking to get a custom pair of shoellies. Glad that they can do them with the barefoot sole!

[@dis_kgb]

I would love to work for a Company that does this much good , for rangers and care about their end users as much as Jim green does

[@muhammadranderee2712]

A dark brown for the numzaan!

[@RexusOutfitters]

You keep doing everything right. Keep up the good work! I admit the new, more-pointed last of the Numzaan looks more stylish than the round "clown shoe" of the African Ranger, but please don't forget about us with wide feet who looked to Jim Green in the first place. In the end, for all-day comfort in the field fit triumphs over fashion.

[@zacharyarnold412]

Jim Green Mock Toe!!?? Im eventually going to own every pair of boots you make JW… you guys are knocking it out of the park

[@danielahmadu1788]

I would definitely love a barefoot 8 inch boot especially if it's in the natural veg re-tan leather option. Using some thick leather cream to make it more water resistant would make it the perfect boot for my specific use case.

[@jack_saunders8503]

You guys are easily one of the coolest boot companies out there, I love seeing what you all are working on, its always amazing

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

💪🐸💪

[@jmunsamy]

Start a new bush/hike trail series showing where jim green boots have been as well as showcasing South Africa's great beauty.

[@saucyg6371]

A leather similar to Horween #8 would look awesome!!

[@cwr8618]

New comfort wedge sole sounds super cool. Looking forward to it

[@FabuBrik]

Those artists did an incredible job.

[@etrain172]

Jim Green Moc Toe!?!? Oh man, you guys keep finding ways to separate me from my money. I can’t wait for it to come out.

[@sschoon86]

Will the leather balm be available in the US?

[@ml8067]

One channel! Boot of the week, outdoor stuff, adventures. All fun keep it here and keep it coming! Love the ranger program any videos on that too

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

💚

[@ADoonskiVeiw]

I love to look of the no toe cap Houston Black

[@OolabaSwa]

holy smokes that wedge sole is sick!!!

[@ericthatcher1359]

All the houston colors are upgrades from the original brown and black. Veg tan walnut is absolutely awesome, and houston green looks so much better in person than expected. It's hard to believe that multiple sizes of walnut and houston black barefoots are already sold out! I honestly still love my outbacks and feel they need to make a comeback. The perfect setup to see those take-off would be the veg tan walnut with the frog grip sole. That is the combo to make the slip on chelsea boots gain more traction. Who agrees?

[@weixinlin446]

My vote for Tire Tread Soles on Barefoot Boots.

[@Nephi895]

So, I've been enjoying my African Rangers, but I'd prefer if they had a taller shaft that went over the ankle. It would keep debris out of the boot better. Honestly, it looks like the Numzaan kind of fills that niche, but I'd still like to see a tall African Ranger, with the single layer of leather (for hot environments) and padded collar. Happy to see all the new styles you guys are putting out.

[@ElevatedSkins]

Need some stockmans in black, medium brown, and with a non lug sole option!

[@NamorVendetta]

If you did a grey or blue tone leather I’d buy both!!!

[@crossingwalls]

Even though the documentaries might not perform that well, I really enjoy watching everything in one place! Keep up the amazing work and awesome videos *.*

[@csommer4492]

So excited for the 8" barefoot boots! Would be nice if the gusset went up quite high!

[@zacharyarnold412]

8 inch bear foot boot!! I’m sold. Love you Jim Green!

[@gp556by45]

Im super excited about the moc toe boot

[@scottrobertson1723]

Keep videos on one channel. It’s great as it is. Also, would love the Numzan boot in black with no toe cap

[@williambrown4393]

Please keep all materials on one channel. Excellent content. Please do a video on how you came up with your logo and can you put your logo on shirts we can purchase.

[@ninemimesleft]

That barefoot tall boot looks great!

[@katlegomohlala5545]

Il definitely buy 1 this year.

[@tonykoop]

I want to see the capless Numzaan made in the Houston Green with the black tire tread wedge sole. Also you should come out with a Houston Blue capless Numzaan on a white tire tread wedge sole. Your upcoming moc toes should come in a Houston Red on a white wedge, and khaki suede on black wedge. Also, make your moc toes wide, they are notoriously challenging to break in because of the extra stitching and toeliner. Lets Go!

[@jerrymuething9042]

AR8 in green with the tire tread wedge sole would be my combo

[@TheBearsCorner]

All the videos on one channel I think is more steamlined. I'm an american, and while I like american goods, I also really appreciate goods from other countries that are authentic to their country. I appreciate the mingled boot videos and videos about Africa.

[@Dea_Decay]

I love the green leather and hope to see it available in more options!

[@larrykeltto1141]

The insight and details provided in this video are terrific - for example, the ingredients in the boot balm/cream.

[@madbrainmakesnosense8229]

Excited for the moc-toe boots. Did not find comfortable moc-toes for now, with the JG lasts this could be it.

[@slavicodyssey]

I just pre-ordered some Numzaans after buying a pair of shoellies. I thought to myself "Damn I really want a pair of moc toes someday. I'll wait until Jim Green comes out with a pair. I'm sure they'll make them eventually." And lo and behold haha

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Thanks for the support! We look forward to your feedback ahead with your boots 💪🐸

[@siouxbe1]

Oh I really want the Green color leather!

[@MrKinghuman]

a tea core black is a must for the patina fanatic. all black boots are required for countless jobs.

[@JacobDH87]

I would love the new outsoles available in the US for resoleing.

[@SirBigChungus]

Excited for the future of Jim Green! Keep up the amazing work.

[@Andermani]

I do love the Numzaan in green without the captoe.

[@rudantu]

Overall super proud to see the improvements to my hometown bootmaker. 'Best in Africa' is either already there or not far from reach. The uniforms and factory are looking amazing and I hope to visit one day. I think keeping one youtube channel is smarter, it gives a cohesive overview of how active and alive the company is in various areas. Users can always ignore what they don't want to see. The introduction of more heritage style, formal-ish boots from the north hemisphere are lovely to see. And of course, the JG identity shines through. Solid materials, honest construction and respect to the customer. The experimentation of custom boots must surely show how versatile the mainline boot silhouettes have become. The new leathers look lovely in the Numzaan shape. The optional Toecapless (?) forms are also nice, I'd probably choose one of these for a slimmer profile. I recommend considering black eyelets for the black leather, I think the current bare metal details can be a bit distracting.

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Thanks for the feedback appreciated. If black becomes a good seller then tooling up for black eyelets we can do🥾

[@lloydgeddie]

Make black numzaan boots please!

[@damianhurtado313]

I'd love some navy blue or burgundy options, can't go wrong as a staple color option

[@marcushynek7075]

Honestly as an American Manufacturing engineer I would love to come work for you guys in that role

[@huntards]

GREEN!!! 🐸

[@sebastianfuenzalida3144]

So stoked for that 8 inch barefoot ranger!!!

[@zacharygodwin7121]

Just the other day, I was thinking, "It would be nice if jim green made a mock toe"

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

Coming soon 👀👀

[@HaRoFotografie]

It is nice to see that a small shoe company, through a lot of work, good employees and a lot of heart, produces such beautiful shoes with super quality. The shoes go around the world and have also arrived in Germany. Many thanks for that!

[@JimGreenFootwearOfficial]

We have been proudly manufacturing Footwear with Attitude that is Built to Last for the last 30 years and have no plan on stopping anytime soon! Thanks for the support and enjoy the journey ahead 🐸🐸💪

[@robertpaul4962]

Practical leather hiking boots that look good, are made well, and are affordable. I think that’s your niche. There is a huge gap in the market that you could fill. I always feel like my Nicks boots are too heavy and expensive to take hiking. I want a boot that I can do everything in and not worry about it. More detailed videos on how they are made and why they are made that way. What are these boots good for and why? Very excited about the direction you’re heading and your work with Rose Anvil!

[@DavidEdwards-jv6ic]

I have the Namzaan in natural. Been wearing them for about 3 weeks, every other day. The boot is great overall, but the best part is the sole. I have their lug sole on their chelsea Stockman boot and that one is way harder. Also a good boot, but it took a lot longer to break in that sole. The Namzaan has been great so far, may have to add the black if they go that route. That frog grip is super comfortable. I like the toe cap, I have a pair of Iron Rangers as well, these are definitely wider footprint, but the sole is more comfortable. Happy so far and looking for more innovation from this brand.

[@jimyoung9262]

I hope to see the trend toward more subtle branding continue. I've held off from buying any Jim Greens up to this point because of how big the logos are.

[@bcoop375]

Moc Toe!!!!!!!

[@mrhatto]

One channel to rule them all…. Also, I see a custom order 8” barefoot with steel toe in my future.

[@jbooh88]

Still wearing my original African Ranger Houston Browns every day. I can’t wait to wear them through this summer. they’ve been great this winter with just a coat of mink oil. I wouldn’t mind a little interview with your dad talking about the early days. And I am curious how some of those machines work.

[@va6gkthaskey311]

Im definitely looking forward to the polish and once i save a bit more another pair of boots. Not sure which i want next though Cheers, beers and whiskey 🤠 🥃

[@alexmarkarian96]

All looks great! Looking forward to your Buffalo Skin AR restock
