As far as we're concerned, Jim Green and Barefoot make the most durable barefoot style boots out there. But which one is best for you?? Last year we compared the low ankle African Ranger to the Bruin, but after expanding their line Jim Green introduced the 8" African Trooper, and we've been excited to compare it to the Bearfoot ever since. Today we'll talk about and compare many of the aspects of both of these boots, giving you our real world experience for both and giving our recommendations on one over the other.
