Ranger III GTX® Video
Nubuck Leather Upper
Robust and durable to extend the life of your boots. It is also open pored for breathability while remaining fully waterproof.
Gore-Tex® Lining
Allows for moisture and sweat to escape while preventing water from entering from the outside.
C4 Tongue
Reduces pressure on the instep and allows for improved flex and comfort.
X-Lacing® Stud
Reduces tongue movement and prevents pressure and blisters from forming.
Roller Eyelets
Allows for quick and easy lacing with minimal friction.
Medium Flex Stabilizer
Provides sturdy underfoot support while retaining forefoot flex.
Polyurethane (PU) Midsole
PU midsoles do not deform under heavy packloads so you can carry more without compromising weight and flexibility.
SPS System
Optimises foot stability to provide added comfort when walking. This system corrects gait by reducing pronation and supination (feet rolling inwards or outwards).
Vibram® Natural Outsole
Provides good grip on diverse terrain and allows you to ascend and descend with ease in challenging terrain. This outsole is resolable.
Invest In Your Comfort
You invest a lot of time, money and effort in your outdoor adventures, so it makes sense that you invest in the most comfortable, durable footwear you can find.
I bought a pair of these and didn't have time to break them in before a pig hunt in Cape York. Wore them for 7ks in 36deg heat. Didn't think about my feet once. Many deer hunts in Tassie later plus casual wear and they are still the best boots I have ever owned.

Best boots I have owned. Work as an Ecologist and hunt on the weekends so I put 1-3 hard back country walks in a week. Other boots last about 6-12 months depending and my last pair of Rangers got 2 yrs. This will be my second set and will get a 3rd in a few years time!
