Introducing the New “Chief” to our Range – The Numzaan Boot.

We’ve listened to our customers and are thrilled to bring you the Numzaan boot—crafted with the Jim Green touch for top quality, comfort, and formality on every occasion.

Derived from the Zulu word “Numzaan,” meaning the head of a family or a leader, we proudly present the Numzaan boot as the distinguished “Chief” in our collection. Inspired by our Baobab boot, it projects a heritage feel and features our new Veg Tan leather, making it our most stylish boot to date.

You may want to sit down for this one as on as there a lot specs to run through for this one. The Numzaan boot boasts a double lasted upper (2.2mm lined with 1.2mm calkf skin) this is then finished off with a genuine toe cap, making this boot sport over 5mm of leather around the toes. The Heel and toe area is also reinforced with thermoplastic toe puffs for added support. This is paired with an ankle-high lace-up system and bellows tongue. The unique facing pattern allows for less lace pressure for those days when the boots need some added tightening.  Our ASHM last allows for a “fashion” look while still accommodating a wider foot. The good news doesn’t stop there, we’ve gone the extra mile and incorporated a leather lasting board, leather midsole and a resin runner (a total of over 8mm of leather) that will gradually mold to the shape of your feet. All of this comes together with the innovative Frog Grip sole, marking a new stride forward in the Jim Green range.

Discover the unparalleled elegance and comfort of the Numzaan boot—a true leader in our range!

Product Care

The best way to preserve your Jim Greens is through regular and correct polishing. Water, heat and wear remove the natural oil from the leather, so when the tiny fibres dry out they become hard, brittle and break easily, thereby shorten the life of the leather.
For our leather boots we recommend any natural shoe polish found at your local store. For our suede options we suggest light brushing to remove dirt and a scotchguard for longer protection.
After a long day in wet conditions and you requiring your boots early the next morning, the worst possible solution is to artificially dry your boots. Leather fibres burn easily – especially when wet and therefore should never be left near a heater, placed in your oven or left in direct sunlight. For the best results, footwear should be dried out slowly and never subjected to any extreme heat. Should you work in constantly wet conditions, it is best to alternate between two or more pairs of our Jim Green boots.

SIZE GUIDE

We realise that buying footwear online is a daunting task and we are often asked to recommend a size by new Jim Green customers. If you happen to purchase a pair of Jim Green boots online and they do not fit, we will happily exchange them for you. If the measurements fall in-between the lengths provided, we do offer half sizes on certain styles. We can recommend a size but we can’t guarantee the fit.

  1. JOSHUA (verified owner) –

    Just received my new Numzaan boots, shipped straight from Africa, with the lug sole. Classic appeal with the thick natural veg tanned leather. Can’t wait to break them in.
    Fit is perfect at 1/2 size up from my brannock size. I love them. Thanks again Jim Green!!🔥

  2. skuzfoz (verified owner) –

    Undeniably an unmatched value for a gorgeous design.

    But I think the boot still needs work, and I returned mine with sadness in my heart.

    Lug sole: Too soft, to the point that I’m not only certain I could tear chunks off during a hike, and I can wiggle the boot around while standing on it. I’m an avid hiker and really wanted the old-school explorer boot look, but I feel that for me this outsole could be legitimately dangerous and unstable.

    Tongue/lacing area: I think the pattern needs a little work here. The inner and outer layers of leather end where the tongue gusset folds, leaving a stack of leather that is just counter-productive to trying to get a good tight cinch on the laces. This will break in over time, but I question how much. The built-in kiltie also doesn’t want to stay under the upper, and there’s no tongue loop, so it loves to be crooked.

    Finish: The leather I received was spotless, great cuts of leather. My left welt at the heel was fairly severely chewed up in the production process though.

    Overall it’s a gorgeous boot for a very good price. They’re heavy, and I wouldn’t recommend them as a hiker, but as a fashion or work boot I can’t name a better value. It is by all means a higher-end boot for low-mid pricing as far as real boots go.

  3. David –

    I wanted to love these. The leather is fantastic for the price. The frog sole is great. However, I had to return these due to the tongue/lacing area. Even buying the correct sized boot, you cannot tie the boot around the ankle/calf – there’s a constantly a two finger gap between boot and ankle/calf. I’m sure this will break in some, but not enough to overcome the excess material. This is a lace up, not a Chelsea boot.
