- Stand vertically on a piece of paper and trace your feet. Then measure the maximum length in cm and determine your UK size
- Please do not add anything to this. Yes, your foot needs some space because the foot moves in the shoe as it rolls. This has already been taken into account in the table when converting.
- If you have wide feet, you don't need to add anything, as almost all Jim Green shoes are already wide. Wide width EE (almost all Jim Green models). Normal width D (e.g. Shoellie, Baobab, Numzaan) .
- Please call us if you have any doubts. Shop with peace of mind as you can exchange your size at any time.

Introducing the Bush War Boot — Born in Battle, Shaped by History, Built for the Bush.
Inspired by the legendary combat boots worn by soldiers in the Bush Wars in Africa, the Bush War Boot pays homage to decades of rugged field practice – refined for the modern outdoor enthusiast.
Every detail serves a purpose: a fusion of classic military design and Jim Green's time-tested craftsmanship.
This boot brings the past into the present with military-proven functionality, durable, locally sourced leather, and construction that relies on tradition.
A boot for everyone who demands more – whether in action, on the shooting range or in everyday life with rough demands.
Crafted from high-quality leather and reinforced in high-wear areas, the Bush War Boot offers exceptional breathability and durability.
A double layer of leather on the heel, an integrated canvas layer in the toe area and a thermoplastic reinforcement provide stability and protection – without sacrificing comfort.
Its signature double buckle straps at the ankle aren’t just for show — they provide time-tested advantages: added ankle stability, debris protection, and a custom fit that adapts as the boot breaks in. Originally used by elite units across Africa, this buckle system gave soldiers extra security in unforgiving conditions — a feature just as relevant today for rangers, farmers, and outdoor professionals.
A veg tan leather midsole and genuine crepe rubber sole give the boot reliable grip, durability, and ground feel. Beneath the surface, a wooden shank adds just the right amount of structure for long days on foot, while a built-in leather half sock cradles the heel for comfort with every step.
Finished with a 360-degree double-stitch-down construction and fully gusseted tongue, the Bush War Boot is fully resoleable, made to serve through years of wear.
- Manufactured with a single layer of leather (2.2mm Full Grain leather).
- The Heel area is manufactured with a double layer of 2.2mm Full Grain leather
- for added durability.
- 8-inch height for excellent support, comfort, and protection.
- Thermoplastic toe puff and a heel stiffener for extra support.
- A canvas layer in the toe box for added reinforcement and moisture control.
- A wooden shank between the midsole and sole offers extra support and stability
- while also being a bit flexible.
- Signature double buckle straps for ankle stability and fit adjustment.
- A fully gusseted tongue.
- A 3mm leather midsole and 3mm natural resin runner for added comfort and
- durability.

- stitched 2.2mm braided nylon cord.
