Is it running?, Playing?, Jogging?, or a pleasant walk?
Here is something that gained my attention. There are only two companies red chief and woodland who make the most durable shoes is what is believe. I bought a pair of woodland shoes(the ranger series) three years before and still going very well.
Looks
It looks huge and has got macho looks just like a ranger footwear is supposed to be. The face of the shoe is made of soft leather. The leather is not vanilla it has a really good shade which gives it a really nice look. The criss cross shoe laces look really amazing and also gives a firm hold and does not loosen up while we a on the move or playing. The side look of the shoe has the cutting of the woodland tree logo which reflects on the leather which is best part of it.
Comfort
The shoe provides with a good comfort. If we talk about ranger shoes they are not really comfortable and can cause pain in the feet and calf muscles. But this one is a stand alone in this segment. The comfort in sense of long distance i.e. we can go long and long as we want and it does not make your feet sweat which is the best part I liked in it.
Weight
It weights around 359 grams which is not light but neither too heavy. As it is understood that ranger shoes are not light. This helps while we are on the move. This weight creates a balance between our legs and it avoids leg twists that create enormous pain. As it is a mixture of a ranger shoe and a sporty shoe, its weight is just perfect.
Durability
As I said I purchased it three years before it is still comfortable the looks however has changed a bit as I use it to my fullest.I play football, I run, I walk and still going on. The shoe is also very flexible you can actually hold it in your hands and twist it, turn it or squeeze it. The rubber sole gets it back to its original shape. Grip
The tough rubber sole gives a firm grip while running. but we still have to slight careful on wet slippery surfaces like commercial tiles etc., The sole grip is made for uneven trek surfaces. However, it is best while trekking on uneven surfaces or on the jogging track and also on the playing ground.
Cost
I had purchased it Rs. 3880/- but now the price has increased to Rs. 4, 200/- approx. I feel it is still a fair deal. It is a good value for money. Spending an amount on this will a sensible decision as the product is really good. I believe it is a good investment.
Negatives
As I said it is made of soft leather when the leather gets wet in the water it takes a lot of time to dry which is the only negative aspect of it.
I would suggest all youngsters to try it out once and believe me you will become a strong brand loyal. You go to college, classes, jogging, walking or even driving your car it is really good!
