I'm impressed with the attention to detail and the amount of hands-on work! I've had a pair of suede Vellies for a couple of years and they are my favorite and most comfortable shoes.
To watch how these shoes are being hand-made makes me treat mine with awe!
Serious craftsmanship here. People love Vellies, they are a must.
Just received my tan vellies this past week and I could not be more satisfied. They are stylish and durable. Now, thanks to this video, i understand the high quality of labor that went into making them. Much love from California

I've got some Redbacks, Thursday Captains, but my favorite pair of boots so far are my African Rangers! Jim Green won me over, and I ain't going back lol

out of curiosity, did you replace the insoles? I find they are top notch with a good insole and waxing (if you live in a wet climate as I do)

@@coopersand911 yeah haha. I went to an Oktoberfest and my feet got wet but not soaked. Basically the leather itself absorbed moisture. I have 2 pairs of ARs and 1 pair of steel toe razorbacks. The African rangers I only wax the Stichdown/welt but the steel toe razorbacks I was the entire thing. I find that a good foam and/or leather insoles does the trick. Nick's sells leather insoles if that's what one would prefer. And foam insoles can be found anywhere.

Great to seeing them being made thanks, just love my boots I ordered for myself here in NZ. Wore them on the weekend on a Ghost Timber Mill tour and had 2 people ask me about them with out saying a word to promote them! Love it.
Just ordered a pair to compliment my Ranger boots. Way to go Jim Green.
Impresionante!!! Profesionalidad, calidad,perfección.... Sois los mejores!. Las Vellies, son las mejores botas del mundo. Congrats,Jim Green.

Ordering a pair, I can't wait to try them on!
I just saw the rose anvil video on the ranger boot being cut monday. Tuesday i ordered ranger boot. Wednesday i ordered vellies. And razor back. The vellies in size 12 brown suede were $62 on amazon. Ive paid 10x that for boots, that were of lesser quality. The construction of these is quite amazing. For the vellies i had a little heel slip. Adding a rexal arch support insole seemed to fix that issue quite well.

proud to wear my multiple pairs of JG everyday! (gotta rotate)
I wear a pair of these boots. Just Love them. Great Video.
Great boots with all the fine steps of quality made boots.
Another great Jim Green 🐸 video ! Best regards from America.
I love my rough-out Vellie's I hope they restock soon, ready for a black pair and a tan pair Size 10
Cool video. I've been enjoying mine for a couple of months now. Khaki and brown leather. You all really did a great job making them. They are terrific - well done.
just ordered a pair, cant wait!
Now I need to buy a pair of vellies. To go with my 6 other pairs!!!
I ordered mine half a size down from my uk sneaker size and they were perfect. After ordering, before they arrived, I was kind of concerned about the spend. Not because they're expensive. They're a total bargain of the century. Especially after watching this. No, I was concerned from a 'cost of living trend' kind of perspective and was ready to, maybe, return them for the slightest of reasons but after tying them on and walking around the house for a bit, I heard the following words coming out of my mouth: "These are pretty great". Among numerous other things, I love just how rough the rough-out leather is. I love the whole work-ready look over a usual desert boot, too. Glad I never went with something akin to a Clarks. Definite keepers, for sure!

Love my velles.
Adventure! 👌🏾
Seeing how much human care goes into those boots is both amazing and kind of scary... That's a lot of free-hand human intervention without guides or markers! Just eyeballing it square and center! I imagine that rejects are scrapped, or perhaps donated somewhere if they're not too bad... But I can only imagine how a new employee might mess up a boot accidentally!
Processing Good skilled to achieve a shape, wish to have a pair😃
Nice shoes
got myself a pair of ranger that i am using everyday since december and i think i will buy a pair of (SUEDE - KHAKI) vellie.. leather is good.. i am afraid of stains as they are suede and color is prone to stains but will try

Thank you for the support and we hope your new shoes go well. Please let us know about any feedback and your experience.
what is being applied to the rubber sole before they apply the glue? I assume some chemical to soften the rubber.
This is why we humans need to start thinking about buying quality that lasts. not some piece of fashion crap! the world would be is such a better place if we did!
Cuánto es el precio de las botas. . muchas gracias
I want a barefoot version of this!
