what size do I have?

  • 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.

The traditional Vellie - South Africa's most popular shoe

The origin of the Vellies goes back to their ability to withstand the harshest and driest climate conditions. Jim Green has gone to great lengths to ensure that his Vellies not only remain true to this traditional function, but are also made using the best methods available.

Jim Green strongly believes that the Jim Green Vellie is the best value for money in South Africa. With the quality of the materials used and their ability to resole, they will last you for many years.

  • Made from a single layer of leather ( 2.2mm full grain leather )
  • A steel shank between the insole and sole provides additional support and stability
  • The insole is attached to the upper with a double-stitched , braided 2.2mm nylon cord
  • BR sole: natural soft rubber
  • Can be resoled
  • Size relatively large. If you are wavering between two sizes, take the smaller one
  • Wide toe box, EE width
  • Made in South Africa
