Bogs Rancher Black Boot Reviews

Bogs Rancher great product worth the $$.
I bought these boots for my son as he has daily farm chores in all kinds of weather. They have been so much better than his old rubber boots! they are comfortable and waterproof.I have two other boys and they did not have holes in their boots, (hence they still have wellies!)and now they take the bogs from their brother whenever they can!!! Looks like I will be buying at least two more pairs if not three (one for Dad). If you work outside in all conditions especially farm type stuff... livestock etc these boots are a must!!!! 


Bogs Rancher GREAT BOOTS.


My partner had already purchased a different style of Bogs boots so I knew they were solid, warm, and comfortable. I decided to get the Rancher style because they were the most manly I found (short of the camouflage boots) and I need all the help I can get. I'm certainly not disappointed. These boots are incredibly warm and 100% waterproof. The neoprene uppers are tight enough that nothing gets in, but stretchy enough to fit over pants without feeling tight. I know that they are too warm to be much use outside fall or winter, so I'll probably need another pair when it's not so cold, but they are perfect right now. The only problem is that my feet get tired and cramp quickly in them, which is more a problem with my feet than the boots. It's not a huge issue because the inserts that they come with are easily removable and I can stick whatever orthopedic inserts in that I want.

Bogs Rancher Nice, comfortable, sturdy boots.
First pair of boots I've found in my size (18) in about 15 years that not only fit correctly, are comfortable to wear, sturdy, and while they fit well and stay on great, they are also easy to pull on and off. I was afraid pull-on boots may give me difficulty getting on and off, but not these, very nice boots. 


Bogs Rancher Boots Very Good at Most Things: Not for the Woods.
I used these boots for 5 weeks in Northern NH doing fieldwork in wetlands, mainly bogs as a matter of fact, 60 hours/wk. I ripped them up pretty good. The neoprene upper is far superior to a full-rubber upper in many respects; it's more flexible (i.e. comfortable), warm on cold days but not too hot in the summer, and condensation will not build up because while waterproof, it can absorb moisture.

The downside I found during my fieldwork in swampy lands is that if the upper gets snagged on a twig or scrapes against a rock, it will often tear and no longer be waterproof. It's pretty fragile in that respect. I have 4 holes in mine, one of which a significant amount of water can get through. I don't blame this on the boot; I now know I picked the wrong application for the product.

Everything else the reviewers say is true. EXTREMELY comfortable for a boot. No-smell antimicrobial footbed really does seem to hold back smells considering how much I sweated in these. I was comfortable in temperatures up to 75F in the woods. I have a 2E wide foot, and these were plenty wide. They run wide and maybe just a tad short on length (I can wear a 13 in many brands, but the 14 was best for BOGS). Highly recommended for farm work, field work, not so much.

The other downside I found is that in the typical grip v. wear tradeoff, these boots' rubber tread have good grip but wear pretty quickly. Made in China but quality is of construction is good, you get what you pay for. Also surprisingly easy to get on and off, yet will not get sucked off your foot in deep mud. 


Bogs Rancher Boots These are the toughest, lightest, most comfortable boots I have ever owned.
I don't know where to start with these boots. I live in Montana, and wanted a boot like a Muck boot, but for less money. I went to a store downtown and tried a bunch of boots on, and thought that these boots seemed a bit clunky, and didn't try them on until after maybe 6 pairs. Before I put them on, I could not believe how light they were.

I wear a size ten boot normally, and these were true to size in my opinion. I also have wider feet. I immediately was taken aback at how comfortable they were. These are more comfortable than any boot I have ever tried on. The sole is ridiculously comfortable. I would highly suggest trying these on before you buy them, as with all boots, but you should just go experience the comfort of these boots.

So I really liked them, bought them for $99, and tried them on. I then used these boots for work, outside, in winter weather in Montana. They were awesome. I cannot honestly think of a moment when my feet got cold one time. So I started using them for everyday normal use afterwards. I now wear them between the months of November-May sometimes June, for anything which requires being outside in the mountains, or work. They really are awesome boots. There is no better boot for Montana. The traction these boots have is also amazing. On ice they do ok though, so always use something like a Yaktrax type product. On rocks, or pavement/cement, it's almost as if they stick to the rock.

When things get insanely cold (-40) I will double up my merino wool socks, and wear these bad boys, and I am never cold. They are waterproof up to a few inches below the knee, which make these great for stream crossings.

So now, after owning these for a year in November, I have worn the rubber down to hardly any tread, and after testing them out in a shallow lake, I found a few miniscule leaks. I have also worn out the heel area down to the rubber, which now gives me a blister. I honestly find this incredible, as I usually wear out my boots in 3-6 months, no matter how expensive they are.

So I called Bogs, and asked how to fix them, and they told me they would send me a new pair of the Rancher, if I send them pictures, showing the wear. That is awesome. I used to pay $250 for hunting boots every year, and these are so much more comfortable, lighter, and tougher (although not indestructible). The only reason they wore out is because I used them many times while hiking in scree. Scree is a boot killer, and these Bogs fared better than other boots I have had.

I will say one thing: They have no ankle support if you hunt or hike in them. I don't ever feel like I need the ankle support anyway.

Another warning: They will get sweaty if you don't have a wicking knee-high sock, like poly-pro, or merino wool. In warmer weather, you will notice sweat rings just below your knee if you have cotton pants. But just as with everything, there is a proper way to use these boots.

I highly recommend these boots if you need something waterproof, warm, comfortable, and tough.

Update: Bogs did indeed send me replacement boots, with no charge. Free shipping. Not only that, but the boots this year seem more rugged (or maybe I just haven't broken them in yet). The heel area is definitely beefier, like they added a denser type of rubber. Feels very solid. The inside area around the ankle, to the middle arch area, is encased in this type of rubber. They feel tighter, but a slightly bit clunkier. I have some pretty awesome pictures of the wear down of the old boot, next to the new shiny boot. I'll post them somewhere on the internet, or on this review if I can figure it out.

Another thing to note which I noticed is different. The insole these new boots come with is different. Either that or a salesman put the old insole in my old boot to sell it quicker. The old insoles are made of a material that feels like a gym mat if you step on them. Amazingly comfortable. I don't know why all insoles aren't made of this stuff. Anyway, I pulled it out and it says that it is a Peak brand, but the only Peak brand insoles I can find on Amazon look like garbage. The new boots came with Bogs brand insoles, and these were not that comfy. I replaced them with my old ones, as they still have their shape and softness. The Bogs brand insoles are really stiff.

I also think it's important to mention that I wear my pant legs over the boot, while a lot of people tuck them into the boot. I think it just looks better to have the pant leg on the outside, but it also keeps out debris. When I have worn them on the inside, they just collect debris like pine needles, burrs, insects, or dirt. So with that said, the new boots have a bit of a looser fit on the calf area. I guess that is geared towards people who tuck their pant legs into their boots. If anything, I would like a tighter neoprene sleeve on the calf area to really make these boots feel like an extension of my foot.

If I could recommend three things about the differences I see in the new Bogs, it would be that they offer a softer rubber version like the old ones I have, with more neoprene cushioning. My old Bogs seemed to have softer insides, and were a little looser around the heel, ankle and mid-arch areas. Also: a more comfortable insole. I am pretty sure my insoles were non-standard, as they weren't even cut down to size when I pulled them out to switch boots. And thirdly: a tighter upper sleeve. I still love these boots, but I did like the "stealthier" boots, good for sneaking around the forest, and crazy comfortable. Maybe I just need to break these new ones in... Still a 5 star rating from me, and some of the most comfortable and useful footwear I have ever worn. Very fair price for such a well made boot. It's a shame they can't make these in the US. I would pay around $200-$250 for boots like these, and the guarantee can't be beat. What would it take guys? 


Bogs Boots GREAT!!
I bought these boots for my husband that works on a ranch 7 days a week, they are great. Only thing is, I thought I had bought them at a great price, I found out I could have purchased them for 30.00 cheaper at a local store in Stephenville.

My husband loves them, he says they are very warm, but once it starts getting warm outside, he has to take them off because it feels like his feet are cooking in the heat!! Ha ha

Bogs Boots For Men Best Ever.
Got out of high school in 1960. Worked on a dairy farm, wore rubber boots,
now I'm 69 and working on a dairy farm and still wearing rubber boots. Have
wide feet, got blisters and rubbed side of little toe raw. Tried muck's, took
them back after 2 week's. Temperature has been down to 16 here in Arkansas
in December. Feet stayed warm. They are light, soft and no problem with
the width, sore has healed. Wish I had found out about them 50 year's ago.
Got a great price from Amazon and the review's helped me to decide to get them. Will use Amazon again for future purchases. Great service !!
