I have heard a lot of people talking about how comfortable this sole was...but I finally ordered a pair and they were underselling it. It legitimately feels like walking on pillows. Fantastic pair!
Most comfortable boots I’ve ever put on. I own White’s, Oakstreet etc. and these are a step above on the comfort scale!
April 2021 my favorite, most comfortable pair of LL Bean Camp Boots began to fail, it was the beginning of the end of a almost 20 year relationship with the shoes...Sadly, the Bean did not sell them anymore and so my hunt began. (I have one foot which was mauled in an accident, so finding a shoe that works is a hassle). I found Rancourt & Co. after exhausting *(to my loving wife) and diligent research. And so, feeling confident, I placed an order, knowing it would take some time (order in May, promised by mid June). I began life support on the dying shoes and they did not make it. So, I ordered a pair of Eastland Seneca, to fill the gap.
Now comes the compare.....There is no comparison to be made. The Rancourt Harrison boot, out of the box is the most comfortable shoe possible...the foot bed is soft enough to make a day on your feet feel like a moment. The leather, supple and you can tell the moment you put them on, they will mold to your feet like a second skin. The sole, while white, has enough traction to see you through the worst.
The BEST? I won't have to go through the process of finding another set of shoes ever, because Rancourt will resole these boots for a minimal cost (when you consider the cost of the shoes, it is minimal).
Final thoughts, get a pair, you won't regret it.

Probably the best in it's particular style, with an extremely comfortable sole. Leather is suede Kudu so not as characteristically scarred as smooth-out. I do with it wasn't lined though, since it's already smooth inside.
I've noticed that Rancourt has an issue where going up a last widens the heel as much as the toebox, which IMO isn't optimal. My foot is wide enough that even a 10.5EE feels restrictive in the toebox, but just a 9.5E is already wide enough for a securely held heel. "It's not you, it's me" might be applicable here.
They can be dressed up or down and were instantly comfortable. What more could one ask?
