Feel free to ask any questions

Médiéval looking boot best places for finding them ?

>>12347819
thevikingstore.co.uk has a footwear section, I think its mainly costume stuff but you might still find something you like, there's quite a few medieval larp stores that you might find helpful

>>12347818
are the meme boots worth getting?

>>12347833
Yeah I'd say so, only paid £23 for mine and I'd say they're well worth it, I'd recommend you get a newer pair than mine which would still only be about £35. But I would definitely recommend them even if you do get some like mine, they're well built solid and only slightly less comfortable than most of my other boots (removed squeaky insole they came with)

>>12347842
cool, thanks. where do you think is the best place to order them?

i see some on ebay for like $46.50 plus 12 dollar shipping but that seems a little steep to me

>>12347842
where'd you get yours from? I'm looking to get a pair soon and I'm always weary of places I've never bought from before.

I'm in the uk, got mine from a seller on ebay, asking as you're using PayPal for the payment though its pretty easy to get your money back and on eBay its even easier as eBay always side with the person buying the goods, quite a lot of places online went out of stock shortly after I got mine (at the height of the memeing) but there are hundreds of milsurp websites its just a pain to search through them all

Ivan who occasionally posts here has a website called commandostore.com and his boots look to be in really good shape (apparently shipping is a bit pricey though)

there's always brick and mortar milsurp stores so just look for some near you because unless its some sort of tacticool store appealing to edgy 14 year olds they'll usually be quite a bit cheaper than the online sellers

>>12347981
its kommandostore.com

What did he mean by this

I reccomend people don't buy doctor martens and if you choose to believe me I was the original solovair shill over a year ago now.

The racing green ones are from the 80s when they were still mie and they were £25 anyway so amazing value and would've been worth it just for the slightly different design (slimmer boot, tunnel eyelets) even if they were chinkshit, the black 1460s were 50% off and they were my first pair of boots but i didn't know to avoid them back then. The industrials are actually pretty decent boots, and I got the 1914s for the height and iconic look (skinhead) but they do seem to be much better quality than my other China docs and have the comfiest footbed out of any shoes I've ever worn, the leather isn't quite as good as my solovairs but its not far off.

I just use polish regularly and will cover new boots in a really soft petroleum jelly

>>12348004
That's how I always wear them, yeah they're tall enough to be east to tuck into and look good tucked but without the neo vibes, I can't imagine anything other than black jeans/chinos/trousers looking good tucked though

>That's how I always wear them, yeah they're tall enough to be east to tuck into and look good tucked but without the neo vibes, I can't imagine anything other than black jeans/chinos/trousers looking good tucked though

Doesn't it make you look kind of effeminate? or is it not that bad?

I'd assume leg/torso proportions accounts for not making you look stupid doing so as a guy, too

>>12348097
Forgot to say, I don't wear them with skin tight jeans, more of a slim fit to straight leg and bag them out over the top a tiny bit, gives it a more masculine baby jackboot sort of look

>>12348109
I've seen some guys wearing them with like you said, slim fit (def. not skin tight lmao) completely tucked in with no crevice/bag over the top and it looked great on them, though they were all tall, not sure if it would look that good on somewhat that's 5'11" like me. we will see though! cant wait to get my meme boots in the mail

I remember liking these boots, but they were too expensive at the time.
Can you still get them or similar? The thing I liked that I didn't see in cheaper boots was the slim/tapered shape especially the toe box (is there name for this?).

What do you think of them /fa/?

These are british army surplus - they cost me £4.

I remember the tripfag Igor got a pair from Ali but he never posted them in a boot thread (probably because they were shit) get yourself some milsurp boots from your country or another Warsaw pact country just to add a little bit of background to your boots (I'm assuming you're pyccкий)

>>12348507
Nah m80, pretty much any leather boots without zips, its not like a black mannequin situation that all boots with zips are terrible its just that zips 'neuter' the boots theyre on because either you don't lace them as tight as they should be in order to make zipping easier or you lace them as tight as they should be but the added stress on the zip causes them to fail quicker. And to be fair they do look pretty shitty most of the time

>>12347980
Why are Docs considered meme boots? I've been considering getting some 1940s and don't want to waste my money

>>12348760
Nearly everyone has a pair so theyre common AF
They accidentally ruined their image with their punk skinhead mod 'stand for something' advertising campaign which was jumped on by sjws
Every single pairs RRP is £40 too high

The 1940s was discontinued at the same time as quite a lot of their other skinhead (and to a lesser extent 'punk') suitable boots so if you do get a pair its likely no warranty.
Don't let what other think dictate what you wear though, if you want some then get some, I would personally lean more towards a pair of grinders which are available with and without the aircushion sole

Those are the boots I was talking about, really good for the price, slightly different design I know, if you want something closer to the 1940s then solovair make 14i steels with the exact same design however these will likely be ~£175 +-25 as theyre made in england but will be much better quality than the actual 1940s

On the left is the new boots I bought from All Saints; fuckin comfiest boots I've ever worn, they fit perfectly, and they add 2 inches to my manlet height. Really happy with them.

Boots on the right are the ones I'm replacing; got em at Nordstroms for a song but they are falling apart.

I cleaned and conditioned the All Saints with Kiwi Mink Oil which darkened them nicely and weatherproofed them. Didn't know you were supposed to do that, glad I know now.

How often should I be conditioning them? I've seen everything from weekly to monthly to once a year.

>>12349010
I don't condition my boot, just polish them regularly instead. You don't actually need to condition them at all as long as you still give them some sort of treatment, I'd say twice a year though once after spring and once after autumn

>>12347818
Am I the only one that actually likes the cherry red/oxblood-boots? Sure, matching them is tough, but otherwise they look like the classic skinhead-boot that people love.

>>12349467
I like the color, think it looks better than brown or black, you can also oil them up to make them slightly darker

I sometimes wear them with jeans rolled only half way up them so they look like 10i boots just because theyre easier to work with fit wise but I'll occasionally go all out pic related

>>12349551
I've actually polished the main boot with a mixture of oxblood and black and the toecap with oxblood and cherry which gives it a really nice rub off look

Can anyone with Solovairs give me some insight?
I'm looking to cop something like this but have never owned boots before and don't know about brand quality, how to style etc.

Certainly not $659 considering they're CPs.
At that pricepoint I'd rather get a pair from either Viberg or C&J.

Hey effay, /cgl/ here, what boots would most closely match the kind you see in Ares?
The artist can't draw feet for shit, so there's no closeups, just vague looking tall boots.
I'm thinking Gripfast 14i would work best, or maybe 20i.
Any opinions?

>>12349824
Depends on the boots, black boots its optional you can tuck, cuff or just hang them over, any other colour of boot you basically have to cuff them even if its just one small cuff otherwise it looks a bit off

>>12349835
Solovairs are great, good quality and comfy
Those will be really easy to pair things with as they're simple and sleek

>>12353529
Gripfast 14i would be your safest bet, remember to ladder-lace them for that pic related look

Different boots look better with different trousers you'll have to experiment for the most part. Work boots usually look better with the trousers tucked in and most other boots look better cuffed.

Trousers which are worn with boots should be slim fit though, being tight on the calves. None of this stretch denim stuff though otherwise your boots will look overly clunky. So try and match the width of your boots with the width of your trousers

Are these austrian paras?

Yeah I use a pair for work, here's some protips

Take the leather inner sole out, its more then likely they'll be squeaky as fuck, also if you work around oily or wet surfaces your fucked because they suddenly have zero friction when you move around in it.

>>12362122
Yeah yellow stitching, it dulls down very quickly just from normal wear/accidentally rubbing a bit of polish on them, you can change the colours or replenish them a bit by rubbing a crayon across them like I have done with the 14i cherries

Opinion on biker boots?

>>12362079
What about cargo pants?

>>12362223
heinous imo
look like weird fetish shit. Idk maybe in some very rare cases they look good but i think as a general rule
1: avoid chelsea boots
2: avoid biker boots

btw the current solovairs all have white stitching - docs lawyers made them change it and they had a little whine about but i think it looks better

>>12362204

Hmm, depends on the colour of your boots, if they're black you're okay but if they're red you have to be more careful with the colours, I can't imagine red boots working with cargo trousers but even if it did, avoid anything that looks too militaristic, black is a safe pick here

>>12362252
I don't like it as much on the black boots but like >>12362217 says white stitching would be even easier to change

Thinking about these, $25 + 12.50. Would be worn with pants over

I bought the Austrian meme boots a size too big and kommandostore sold out of my size by the time I got around to reordering. Feels bad man. Lots on ebay but they're all UK sellers. Otherwise I like them, they're more understated than most other old school combat boots I've seen.

>>12360656
Which exact solovairs are these?

>>12362654
Sorry anon, you spooked me into buying them. That seller only had the one pair and nothing similar.

Found them on ebay. There are several other used pairs listed by other sellers. Looks like the model name is "fort lewis". It also specified them to be 200g, not sure if that's unique to this model or if they make their models in different weights.

I've not come to /fa/ for a while not, but back then western wear was discussed here. I just say a boot thread so I thought I'd ask. Hell, the second post is a question about western/cowboy boots.

Lucchese also doesn't just make western wear, they also have english style riding boots as well and more subtle western style, not just exoctic leather western wear.

If you don't actually know anything about the brand, that's fine, but don't make assumptions and then tell me to fuck off to somewhere else in a fucking general boot thread.

Your opinions are shit and you are faggot.

Sure. I bought a pair of Beckman 9016 for last winter and they were fantastic, even though they have no insulation. The first couple days were a little rough because of the break-in period, but now they're very comfortable. Can't speak for the 875s specifically, but I'd imagine they're at least as good as the 9016s.

I live in south Alabama, so I sort of understand what you're looking for. I wouldn't trust someone on /fa/ to give you the most logical choice for a work boot, because most of us are probably neets.

However, I would personally look into purchasing a pair of Wolverine work boots; my uncles and grandfather wore Wolverines while welding, and I know for a fact that they've been saved by them. They're uncomfortable, but they'll surely protect your feet from any of the shit thrown at you while renovating a home. If the other guys who are renovating with you wear something with less ankle support, then you could go with one that has a lower profile which will keep that region cooler. Although, they should keep you cool since my family built bridges and shit in them in the hot Georgia sun.

If you need a versatile boot that you could wear at a job that isn't as laborious and still be able to wear it off the job site, then you could look into buying a pair of Red Wings.

If you need some nice looking southern boots, then you should get some L.L. Bean Duck Boots. No scratch that, if you live in the South then you should get some work boots and some Bean boots (duck boots). They're the boots that hunters and many well-dressed southerners wear. Pic related; they're duck boots.

Horrible because those are the wrong boots to wear shorts with. Palladiums or the boots >>12379183 posted are acceptable with shorts but only if you're going safari mode or sandninja/desertcore.

Does that mean puttees are back in style?

>>12381197
not back in style, but you could probably pull them off without looking like a sperglord if you are fit, tall and know how to dress and balance proportions.

why do you people post nike boots? Just get rocky's.

Also stop posting shitty canvas boots. if they're not japanese industrial work boots there not good

Get the same size as you are in doctor martens/solovair

Also take the leather insole out when you first get them

>>12381167
I find keeping them polished helps draw attention to them, also what other anon says
