Just ordered a stock pair. I Sized them the same as my iron rangers per their recommendation.

Did you find that to be the case you wear the same size in both and fit is similar?

Thanks,

Yes, fit is similar. I guess the Iron Ranger in the same size fits a bit more roomy than the Truman.

My property is amidst rugged terrain, so my boots get a workout. I also have Russell shoes and chukkas for casual wear...18 pairs in all. They last a lifetime. Would be happy to help you if you choose to pursue.

I believe people get thrown off when they see the word "moccasin." The way they construct their shoes/boots is unique. Their boots are specialized. Certain styles were developed for specific terrains, ie hunting in Africa. In that sense, I consider them "technical" wear.

Not everyone is into that "moccasin" look tbh, me being one of em. I go for toe caps and the "service boot" from viberg type look. Like I couldn't go for indy boot or boat shoes because I like a clean toe/vamp area. I'm sure they're well made.

I liked mine alright but found the last to be kind of roomy and sloppy, especially around the ankles and sides. My other boots have felt more 'sculpted' which is something I appreciate.

They also misrepresented the seconds I bought (called a big ass deep cut a 'tool mark') and I ended up passing them on.
