The handmade—and handsome—products of Russell Moccasin are worn wherever there’s a demand for uncommonly comfortable and durable footwear. But they’re most fitting on sportsmen.

Since the founding of W. C. Russell Moccasin in 1898 (although its roots can be traced all the way back to 1850), the company has shod the powerful, the influential, and the famous—presidents, kings, Hollywood celebrities, military leaders, captains of industry. For parts of three centuries, the men who stride the earth like giants have come to Russell for the boots—also the shoes, slippers, and, yes, moccasins—in which they’ve made their footprints. . .

Russells are worn at home and in the office, at camp, in the cabin, on boats, trains, and planes, anywhere and everywhere there is a demand and a desire for uncommonly comfortable, durable, handsome footwear. To wear Russells is to make a statement about one’s values and sensibilities, about the way you roll . . .

Is there a cachet to wearing Russells? Better believe there is—and if it smells like old money and oiled leather, well, so be it . . .

No footwear company is more responsive to its clientele than Russell, and the core of that clientele is, and always has been, hunters.  –Tom Davis
