Hoggs Rannoch question and other veldtschoen boot suggestions.

[angusr93]

Ive been looking for an english made, rugged country boot for the coming autum and winter months in the £250 range and the Hoggs Rannoch seems to fit the bill however i cant find much about it online. Does anyone own this boot who could maybe post some photos of it, preferably one showing the toe box shape? I read this boots is made by Cheaney, is this true?

To give me some options can anyone recomend some other english Veldtschoen boots around my price range? Are there any Veldtschoen brouge boots on the market?

I have the Hoggs shoe version veldtschoen.

I do not think it is Cheaney as it is dark Zug leather rather than the redder country grain on Cheaney veldtschoen.

Toe box is more round than Cheaney.

I have M & S veldtschoen boot, which I believe is Cheaney, for comparison. I do not care for the speed hooks on the Hogg boot.

In case you have not seen this comparison :-
