If boots develop a small but deepish tear how would a cobbler fix it, is it worth taking to a professional (£££) as opposed to just sealing it with two part epoxy, they're on their way out anyway

I have some really beat lambskin leather shoes that were originally over $1k but I got for 440 cuz they were beat to sht by the original owner sadly. I want to keep as natural as I can and really dont want any other color or anything added but they look all scratched up in the front, so I am wondering if I take them to a boot place what would they do if the boots have many scratches? I dont want them using cheap stuff they can use to clean crappy leathers and fake synthetic faux leathers to clean my gorgeous lambskin leather :( attached is a pic of the boots but they dont look too bad in picture but look way way worse if you saw them in real life. should i keep them like this or take them to get worked on

What's the appeal of the ankle boot like pic related?

I always wear taller lace up boots (10 or 14 eye) and they feel secure around my legs, tough around my feet, and I think they look good.
When I used to wear something like pic related type of ankle boots they feel kind of flimsy, don't fir the foot as well, and aren't really much thougher or more secure than my lower sneaker shoes, I also don't like the way they look.

It's purely aesthetic. It's true, if you really want ankle support and protection you should have at least 8 inch boots, maybe more. But 6 inch is a classic look evocative of early 20th century work and military styles.

Ordered a pair of brown-greasy derby boots from the official Solovair website. Pic is what arrived.
I tried contacting them asking if the pics on the website are just misleading or they actually sent me the wrong boots (which are not anywhere on the website... some old collection leftovers?).

It's not that I don't like them; they still look pretty fuckin' good... it's just not what I paid for.
Probably going to keep 'em anyway since I'm not willing to pay 30-40 bucks in shipping costs.

That's what I also thought at first, however a quick google search gave me this, which looks much more like the ones I received, reason why I got more confused. Eyelets aren't brown, the sole isn't as yellowish and the label is much greener.

But in the end I guess it's as you say, it's all about the light.

Almost the same. It's more fun to kick stuff, and before fully breaking your boots in, you might feel a little pinch just behind the toe-cap. Otherwise, it's more roomy on the toe-cap but nothing else to write home about. Unless you actually need them for work. It might depend on the model of the boot, my steel-toed pair is just a basic (older MiE) 14-eyelet + steel-toe-pair, is the pair you ordered more like pic related?

Why are Solovair's so much sexier than Docs?
>>
>>12737299
Those are GREASE LEATHER Solovairs. Hi-shine is like in >>12737280 and all Docs are hi-shine-leather. Greasy leather is grease because it is pre-dubbed and pre-saturated with oils and stuff, to keep it more water-resistant. I'd love a 14-eyelet pair of greasy-leather Solovairs, but only stuff like their Premium-collection derbies are the only option in greasy leather.

from the OP and last thread:

>>>12715281 → anon wants some boots

I ended up getting the Crockett and Jones Northcote boots. Here is a quick pic of them next to my J.Crew Aldens that set off metal detectors. C&J uses wood shanks instead of steel, so I don't have to take my boots off when going through security anymore.

I'm a 9US in Alden's Barrie last, and I ordered a 8.5UK for the Northcote. Both are around the same width, but the C&Js are about half an inch longer due to the pointier toe.

I plan on getting some flat waxed laces just to see how they look with the blind eyelets.

The new black pair is waxed leather, not regular calf or cordovan. I don't think polishing to a shine is even possible.

Do you have any links for waxed leather care? I've got Saphir Renovateur on hand, but I'm not convinced they need treatment yet.

This is a very dumb list of things for a very dumb/picky anon-

Cheap because I'm only going to wear these 3 months of the year

No chelesa because I'm a guy

No ROTC because I'm not ROTC

No Cowboy boots because I'm not a cowboy

No duck boots because I'm not a white girl

water proof because my commute is walking and its going to snow in a few months

Should I just buy some ugly hiking boots or is there a better effay option
>>
>>12736521
Stay jelly hater
>>
>>12738303
You're right. If it is waxed calf it might not be able to absorb polish for a shine. Renovateur won't hurt it though and should still work to clean them and remove any dullness.

My solovair steel toes are buckling and slouching at the ankles and while the leather bending inward doesnt bother my right ankle, it's killing my tenson on my left ankle.
I tried giving them a good conditioning with mink oil to soften the leather but it did jack shit
The boots are less than a year old but i wear them everyday. Are they dead or is there something else i can do?

>>12739113
It isn't fake leather, it's full grain leather with embossed pattern, only thing is it hides any flaws in the leather

It's purely for aesthetics but it hides scuffs. Doesn't hide flaws since embossing tends to exaggerate any pre existing ones.

How big is the toebox on the Iron Rangers when compared to other Red Wing boots?

I bought a pair of Iron Rangers last year, and while I like them, I feel like they might be a bit heavy handed in comparison to shoes with a smaller toebox, and I'm not sure now if buying them was a good decision.
>>
>>12741872
Get Wolverines instead mang, around same price bracket, style isn't that different but considerably sleeker profile.
>>
>>12741872
It's definitely larger than the Beckman toe box, which is in turn bigger than the Wolverine. I bought wolverines after looking at Beckmans and iron rangers because I wanted a cheap boot that was sleek but would look good beat to hell in a few years. The only other boots I can think of in that category are Thursday's various models which I'm pretty sure also use chromexcel leathers but I went for wolverines because I've heard that Thursday qc is hit or miss and I found a pair of wolverines for $200 (same price as Thursdays)

Are you going for a goth(ish) style? I actually hate my memeboots. Thicker boots with padding and a real collar are better. I'd trade mine for yours. Size?

Memeboots are not ergonomic at all. Tying them up is a pain in the ass compared to boots with real speedlacing or even the ones in you pic and you can't wear them without tying them up, so if you have to take your boots off during the day you're going to spend at least 2 minutes fucking about with them. The leather upper of memeboots feels like the thinnest of the thin flea market handbag and flops everywhere.

Do you guys wear your boots with your regular low slim socks or do you wear thicker taller socks?
I'm afraid if I wear taller wool socks with my 14 eye boots it's gonna get too hot but it's so fucking comfy
>>
>>12743731
Wool socks are just generally superior to cotton. I've worn my thickest wool socks with austrian meme boots in ~75 degrees and humid; my butt got sweaty in my jeans and my feet were warm but never felt sweaty. That said, when I took off my socks it smelled more like foot sweat and old leather than it usually does, but I never had a problem with it while I was wearing the boots.

>>12743233
Posers leave the hall
>>
>>12743741
I already get sweaty feet in a pair of sneakers with slim socks so I'm kind of worried. I'm wearing the wool socks to break in a new pair of boots.
Current weather here is around 15 celsius on a normal day and a lot of rain lately (Mornings can get as cold as 5 celsius), I walk a lot so it's probably gonna get sweaty
>>
>>12738225
Oh fuck these are sexy
>>
>>12743746
If your feet are naturally sweaty you should throw away all of your cotton socks. Unfortunately leather is simply less breathable than canvas or running shoe mesh or whatever those knit meme sneakers are made of.

Any recommendations for a moderately similar silhouette to the Dior AW07 Navigator Boot?
>>
>>12737065
What's the difference between Solovairs and Docs? I'm a different anon that needs ANSI Z41-1991 compliance.
>>
>>12746046
As far as I'm concerned:

>old MiE-Docs (pre-2000)
Decent quality, better quality control (everything used to be handmade) but require the same routine and care as any other boot, a.k.a rotating the pair with other shoes, polishing and balsaming etc etc.... These usually have both "The ORIGINAL" and "MADE IN ENGLAND" stampings on the bottom of the soles, aswell as leather insoles stating "MADE IN ENGLAND".

>Asian Docs (2000 and onwards, easily identifiable)
Shittier quality, worse quality control, break down haphazardly unless you get lucky, need polishing and balsaming. Overall, unless you can get them cheap and/or it's your first pair, then don't bother.

>new MiE-Docs (2005 and onwards)
Hyped as being the same quality as the original "vintage-Docs", but limited quantity and a low margin for manufacturing and demand makes these expensive. Are they better, are they worse, overall if you simply want a new pair of MiE-Docs, then these will do. Remember to hold the routine and care the same.

Overall, don't get Docs if you need actual work boots. The "steel-toed" versions are usually just for show and not actually guaranteed for safety. IIRC Solovair doesn't manufacture any safety-boots aswell. Look into other brands for safety and longevity.
>>

Heyo I got some iron rangers but I'm not sure whether they fit too tight or in just being a pussy for the break-in period. Left foot is fine but the right foot it feels like the bend is occurring on the ball of my foot, and the bones on the ball of my foot (both big and little toe, not in between) fucking kill after walking a short distance. Feels like in walking with marbles underneath the ball of my foot.

Did I fuck up or is this normal? They're my first pair of boots so I don't really have a frame of reference.

First time getting a decent pair of leather boots and I figured I wouldnt need shoe trees for a while. Ive worn them for maybe 20 times and theres already creases. I read that putting a wet cloth on the creases and ironing them on low will get them out but seems a bit sketchy to me. Is this to good to be true? Also, what are a good pair of cheap shoe trees

It's leather. All leather creases. there's no way to avoid creasing eventually.

>>12748893
I figured that. But so far it seems like ive done a shitty job at prolonging the inevitable.

Don't cop, leather is shit quality. Get some solovair 1462s instead, you can find them for cheap on their website or eBay

As someone already, leather gets creased. It happens, and you're gonna have to live with that. With proper care those creases will only bring character to your boots, so just wipe them clean after every wear, use leather conditioner after 15-25 wears and whatnot. But do get shoe-trees. They won't stop creases from forming (especially on the vamp and on the ankles) but using them will keep your boots healthy. Godspeed, you.
