Reviews

Five-Star Comfort, Plus One Small Wish List Item

"The RUJO Zeke in Charcoal felt amazing straight out of the box. I threw in a CURREX insert, but honestly, they didn't need any stretching at all. They’re way ahead of my Ariat Futurity Streak Pythons, which required stretching and still can't compete with the Zekes' baseline comfort. The only thing that would make them better? If RUJO offered a few options with pull holes instead of tabs!"

— Jason W. (5/5)

"Absolutely beautiful boots! I have purchased several Rujo boots for myself ( Bradley in Hickory, Canyon in Black, Beck in Silver) and decided to get my son a pair. Extremely comfortable right out of the box. Every boot purchased has incredible craftsmanship, shipped perfectly in a protective box, no prior wear to the sole. I am waiting for a few more boots to get back in stock to buy more! The insoles feel like you’re wearing tennis shoes with that level of comfort. You simply can’t beat the boots when they are on sale. Thank you for growing my boot collection. Rujo customer fan now!"

Great Selection-Boot Quality-Customer Service

"I bought my first pair of boots (The Zeke-Gold) from Ruju Boots a few weeks ago and I just ordered my 3rd pair today. I wear a size 14 which is extremely hard to find, but Ruju Boots has a great selection of 14s (almost every boot comes in the size). The boots are very comfortable right out of the box. The material is outstanding and rugged to hold up to any condition. I bought three exotics (Python, Ostrich); the price is unbeatable and the quality of skin is perfect. I want more they are so good! I also purchased the boot conditioner and exotic skin protector, which is a must to protect the investment. I also had to contact customer service (phone and email) for assistance with ordering and Barbra was EXCELLENT! She was kind and professional in every communication; followed up and made sure everything was perfect for order processing, shipping, and follow-up. Rujo boot are an outstanding company to deal with; they stand behind their product and provide extraordinary customer service. I HIGHLY recommend and will buy from them again."

Thank you again great product."

Python

"Great pair of boots. Have purchased in the past about two years ago. Got the python boots on sale and the quality is fantastic. I love the comfort of the soles which is better than others like tecovas to me. These are great quality and price. Favorite boot brand at this time over tecovas and luchesse. It was a great touch to add the dust bags with the boots. Very small details that make a huge difference."

— Harris F. (5/5)

First Rujo Boots

"Overall, I was impressed with the boots, great quality. I read several reviews that stated the boots run small, so since my feet have high insteps and one foot is almost an E, I ordered an E width. The boots are a little big, so I would say that the boots run true to size. Last point, I don’t understand the extra fee at check out if you want to return the boots. This is not something that customer focused companies do, I almost didn’t purchase the boots because of that fee. Rujo should change that."

— John M. (5/5)

Great Boots!!!

"Great Boots!!! Delivered ahead of schedule. Fit great out the box. Easy on, easy off. My third pair from Rujo (Blake, Jimmy, Zeke) Great fit and quality as always!!!"

— Blake H. (5/5)

Very surprised and I love

"Very surprised and I love them but , I really wanted the GOLD pair and hopefully I get an email telling me that they are available and the price is the same . Thank you and I have told many friends and they ordering from you but they also said they want the GOLD ones but you didn’t have them ."
