>starting a boot thread 2017 anno domini with a picture of ćüçç boots not made in Italy or the USA

Are a pair a decent USA made red wing really worth almost 300 bucks?

>>12438195


I'd say alone theyre worth $200 max. If you really like them, $250. If you believe in supporting american workers/are buying into the made in America hertige or whatever then $300.

If you don't really like the design and the company then no.

If you like the design and supporting American, sure. I can't get over how r/mfa they look though.

>>12438261
This, there are better made in USA boots both in style and quality

Redwings just look to numale now

I work in the oilfield and the best pair of boots I've owned were Oliver's. I've owned timberland, redwing, Justin, Carolina, and another pair of red wings

Everyday use with lots of walking, squatting, immersion in oil and water and brine- Oliver lasted almost a year, Justin lasted 3 weeks, Carolina 2 months, red wings 1 month, timberland 6 months

Bootcare I used to try and rub my boots everyday with some oil, either hydraulic oil or 15-40w but I stopped doing that. I mainly would just use the boot scraper by the hotel front door to get the mud off.

>>12438342
>boot care, hydraulic oil
Pls no.
Even something as harmless as Vaseline has a very slightly negative effect on leather, you're torturing those boots, you wanna be using natural oils on them, mineral oil, mink oil, leather oils and polishes. Not just a bit of left over twostroke mix you had in the shed

>>12438361
Lol yeah that's why I stopped. Legit it'd be like a 30minute ordeal every night to clean those things just to get them to a state where I could oil them.

I originally just hoped that they would be saturated with oil an last forever and just replace the sole/heel as needed but that was no Bueno and also odor control was a factor.

>>12437927
Grey boots similar to Palladiums? I hear they tear easy. I've got white and gray pants I would like to wear boots with but idk if black, gray, or white would be best

>>12438372
>also odor control
You pretty much sealed the boots in thick grime and grease, the leather would have no chance to breathe or ventilate and probably grew all sorts of fungus, mold and mildew. Honestly, what did you expect using that shit?

>>12438322
What others are there?

It's because they are Clarks, one of their cheapo models. There's one on the website that looks much better.

>>12438717
I was implying these were on the low end because they are Clarks. Like I said Im not sure if I want to commit to something better yet since I dont want to spend $100+ on someting I'm not sure of.

>>12438722
these look much more feminine. the thicker sole is less girly. less beatle boot.

I don't know but I don't think Blundstone has an enormous reputation for quality in its native Australia. They're not a luxury good, they're work wear. You wear them until they're fucked and then you pick up another pair, they're not expensive.

Would this seller be considered reputable? 50€ for boots like these seems like a reeeeeeally good deal in my mind.

Does anyone have fit pics that include tan or beige boots?

They seem very difficult to pull off

I have the same pair from the exact buyer and I would say it is a good deal. Don't expect them to be brand new condition though, mine came with a missing hook and some tearing in the leather on the toe.

>>12443988
As long as there aren't any holes in the leather, cracked soles and the leather is just in need of some creaming and polishing, i'll be happy.

Resoled austrian boot guy here. Check out swisslink there boots regular priced boots are in top condition and I ordered the #2 damaged ones . Get one size up on your boot size if you want to put in a beefy insole. Thin insoles like this one are what would still be comfortable and still have room for your foot. <3

Yeah I've got a pair. I would recommend insoles as theyre uncomfy as hell. Also the opening at the top is pretty wide but you cant tell int he pictures. It can look off putting depending on what pants you wear. Also the straps are pretty shit-tier and hard to maneuver. But they're also build like bricks so they'll last you a while and they're not too terrible to break in.
Hope this helps

I'm a manlet (5' 5'') I like boots like the classic Doc Martens or 6in Timberland.

Should I stray away from them? I'm afraid that they will make my legs look even shorter, or that people will think I'm trying to gain a few inches and I'm overcompensating. I don't, I just like how they look.

5'4" Asian dude here. I find that Timbs look hilariously large on me unless I'm wearing baggy pants. Like they're tacked onto my feet or something. The 10-eye Docs make my legs look short, but the 8-eye ones fit perfect.

And no one's going to think you're overcompensating unless you're wearing platforms or dress like Chinese nouveau riche.

anything like guidi in silhouette but cheaper?

I kind of want something like Martens that aren't Martens.

Anyone know what kind of boot these are?

What's a good first boot that's brown and would make me look like I work as a welder or a truck driver or some shit? Not a steel toed work boot, but something that might look like one and is somewhat form fitting.

I was thinking about getting a used pair of wolverines off of ebay, but I don't know how they'd fit, if they've got some type of fungal growth in then, or if they're about to fall apart.

Any brands of leather combat/jump boot that has a Goodyear welt and no side-zip? I like the Austrian meme boots so much that I'd like a similar pair that has no wear.

Any recommendations similar to this design? I'm in love with these but am not a size 13 so fuck my life. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00AYSEZJU/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8

I'm not sure what it is but I just really like this design over palladium's other baggy leather boots. It's probably that stitching or whatever the fuck you call it around the area where you can potentially fold the boot.

Got my first pair of boots today and I need some socks because I've only ever worn athletic socks.

What are some cheap and cozy socks that I can get online? They need to be long enough to cover my legs from a 10-eye boot. I don't care about the look because I only ever wear long pants.

I love the shit out of my Alfa M77's.

Sadly the weather is a little too warm these days.
Any suggestions for a nice pair for summer time?

>>12454444
Definitely better quality, soles are thicker too so will hopefully last longer and have a better tread pattern than DM's, the vibram pattern but with the DM rubber. The 14i Cherry's are definitely the comfier boot though, foot bed is noticeably bouncy

M77s are pretty great.
The fit is nice, though a little roomy in the toes for me. Generally they are a size too big to compensate for big socks, so you might want to go for a size smaller than usual.
Break in kind of goes in stages. New they are pretty stiff and can be kinda uncomfortable. They will get a btt better after about a week of use and a lot better after some use and some polishing.

I broke them in a kind of specific way that is recommended by a lot of M77 users. What I did was dunk them in water for about an hour, then put them on and walk with them until they were dry again. This made them fit my feet pretty much perfectly, but they were still kind of stiff. After some polish and treatment they softened up and now they are really comfy. So I'd say after about a month they were getting really comfortable to use.

Some tips I can give from experience is to get a nice in-sole. Mine had none and I got some nice ones, now I can just stand around in them for hours. Second tip is to lace them like pic related, skipping the lower hooks. This keeps them from getting too stiff around the ankle.

>>12446894
Lacks in character? What the fuck does that even mean? The standard 8-11 eyelet boots that Solovair make look almost exactly the same as Docs, just a differently coloured stitching on the sole. And yeah, the """"unique yellow stiching"""" on Docs fades over time, the stitching on my 1490s stitching whatsoever after just 7 months of use. Solovairs are made with full-grain leather, they'll last longer and they're apparently easier to break in than the current chink-made Docs that still get stamped with "DUURRRRR BRITAIN DUURRRRRR"-stamp of approval. If the stitching or the pull-tag on the lip of the boot is the thing that holds you from going Solovair, then you shouldn't probably get a pair at all.

TL;DR: just get Solovairs.

>>12447062
Solovair or Gripfast.

>>12456912
My 1919s hold nice, and I have abused them a lot.

But yes, Solovairs should be better, never had a pair, but they are basically original docs.
