So, I can’t speak to the boots’ longevity, but they seem well-made and sturdy, and after the break-in they are really comfortable. Because when i open the shoe box all that was in there to either separate the shoes so the did not hit each other or to make sure they did not move around was i kid you not a little peace of tissue paper. You couldn't just make it out of a one piece blank, because the butt had to slip inside (the tip), so you had to make two blanks. Then the gentleman who was making our blanks at the time, Don Green showed me how to develop a certain blank, how to make the patterns and that sort of thing.

Of course we were the first to do it, but it was because of Graphite that we developed a lot of competition.

Incorporating the Feralite Ferrule, Jim and renowned blank designer Don Green (no relation) worked together making many contributions to the modern fishing rod.

AD: Jim, on behalf of myself and the readers of RodMaker Magazine, I sincerely want to thank you for taking the time to talk to me. The wilder toe box is appreciated as I’m now retiring two pairs of hiking boots, they were never comfortable but over the years my foot must have changed a bit and now they are literally a pain to wear. Mile after mile, year after year, the Razorback, an old friend you can always count on to get you from here to there in rugged comfort. Green and Peter Karamoskos (a nuclear radiologist) say there is growing scientific confidence in the linear no-threshold model for ionising radiation. The break-in took about 15 miles and then the boots are comfortable, however the break-in was brutal.

After having compiled a list of those who I thought should be paid tribute, one man's name topped the list …Jim Green. He supported the vet services team at the 2012 Olympics and lectures at veterinary universities throughout the UK. So for some reason or another I stuck the butt section inside the tip, which moved the lesser power further up the blank. All they need after a day of abuse is a scrub and a layer of obenaugh’s leather preserver and they’re ready to tackle a new adventure.

Jim and Don are also credited as the men who designed and produced the first Graphite fishing rods; Fenwick's famed HMG series. If it's not bending where I want it, I take it and file it until it bends where I want it to” Of course you can't do too much of this because you'll go right through the wall! When it comes down to “How should the rod bend to make a good cast” no computer is going to tell you that. So I took one of the blanks that I had to make this two piece fly rod and I thought, “well if I could move the tip further up the blank, why it would be softer of course”. If you happen to purchase a pair of Jim Green boots online and they do not fit, we will happily exchange them for you.Anyway, trying to make a rod using the Feralite Ferrule, I started looking at all the blanks and I would choose a tip, then from another blank I would take a butt, until I had a spinning rod or whatever I was trying to make.
