Horween Exssex leather makes for a supple leather that shapes in quickly. Highly recommended.
Sturdy, comfortable, good feel of the ground that is typical of a true moccasin. The Lactae Hevea soles are the perfect sole for a moccasin boot. These are one of my favorite footwear, the other are also Rancourt moccasin boots. Well recommended.
Just to set it up, I have 9EE feet that always been difficult to fit and I am about the Imelda Marcos of boots. I have a few pair of Rancourt moccasins that I like so when I saw this boot I gave it a shot. I was not looking for a hunting boot but I thought this might be a good urban type or casual wear boot. I think is what it is. When it came I was a little concerned that the toe would not allow me to wear medium sized socks and that has yet to be determined as it is still molding itself to my feet. But what great ankle support! I have never had a boot that feels this good as ankle support. It is well made as all Rancourt shoes are but it has taken over as my choice of footwear most days. I wish I could get a boot like this with a heavier double leather bottom that has just a bit more toe box room and height and a heavier sole for more of a hiking boot as this blows away all my other hunting/hiking boots as far as the ankle support.
