Been looking to buy some mid calf leather lace up boots. I’ve been looking at Schnees , but would like to do some more research before I pull the plug.

Russell Moccasin

I own 3 pairs bought over 20 years.
Mohican Stalkers, Hikers (now Big Cambo's I believe), and the ones I like best Minimalist Thula Tulas in all leather.

Just washed the Hikers and Minimalist, treating acordingly to recomendations. The Minimalist are built on a Munson last, wider in the toe box, tight at arch/heels.

Mohican Stalkers 20 years old


Hikers somewhere in the 13 year range, only insulated I have, 200G Thinsulate


Minimalist going on 3 years

I went to the shop in Berlin WI for fitting, it can be done at home. Only repairs was to the Mohican's, a new sole 6 years ago.

I had some Russell South 40 Bird Shooters made for me 15-20 years ago. Worth every penny.
