Best footwear used in fifty years

Having just tramped the Zambezi Valley for a week, wearing my new Courteney Safari boots, I must say they are the best footwear I have used in almost fifty years of hunting, farming and wandering.  Congratulations on a great product.

I can see now why you have such a loyal customer base.

I’ve been wearing a pair of your Selous boots now for four months. Wow!!! I can honestly say they’re the best made, most comfortable pair of boots I’ve ever owned. I was a little hesitant at first to spend almost $400 on a pair of boots but what a difference at the end of the day! Anyone who has ever walked out of the wilderness with “hot feet” knows every painful step is worth $5 to avoid. Four hundred dollars is CHEAP for these boots. I don’t even think of them as boots anymore, more like a matching pair of Rolls Royces for the feet. I can see now why you have such a loyal customer base.

Thanks for a great product,

Don Merriam

By far the best boots I have ever worn

Thank you. I ordered the Selous boots and been wearing them for over 5 months now. They are by far the best boots I have ever worn. They have been broken in in the harsh winters of northern Maine.  They have passed every test from ice to salt to snow. They are so comfortable and grip everything that comes underfoot.

I look forward to bringing them to Africa with me.

Awesome footwear

Go on – treat yourself

I’ve owned a pair of Selous for close on 15 years now, they have travelled round the world and proven extremely comfortable in all situations from the office to hunting in the African bush.

I have recently returned them to the factory in Bulawayo for a refurb, which they are unstitching the whole boot and resoling them as well as renewing all of the stitching for merely $50usd. These boots may start off expensive but when I consider the mileage they’ve done and the abuse they’ve suffered they begin to look like a bit of a bargain.

Go on – treat yourself.
