New Golden fox boondockers. The leather and overall quality is so good, and for the price it's unbelievable.

>>15009147

anyone know what the hell happened to oliberte? they had good-looking products at good prices and suddenly they changed their country of manufacture, raised their prices, and stopped producing a bunch of models.
pic related is a boot I had wanted to purchase, they no longer carry them. their new boots look different, bulkier with thicker soles. I liked these boots because they look slim and light.

does anyone know of an alternative brand that looks similar to these at reasonable prices?

Went over to the boutique/store of this local maker, Leon Denim, where they basically do reproductions and homages of mid 1900s workwear and servicewear. Getting a pair of jeans from them in a slim, straight cut because I'd rather pair something the new nice shoes with pants that are a little more dignified than just Uniqlo's stretch selvedge.

>>15010842
Those look nice. How is the quality of the leather and the stitching?

Went over to the boutique/store of this local maker, Leon Denim, where they basically do reproductions and homages of mid 1900s workwear and servicewear using premium denim and textiles from Japan and such.

If you were gonna buy White's MP boots, what leather would you get them in? And yes, I know they're now "soi service boots"

>>15010984
seems fine for a season or to see if you like the style but be ready to upgrade because theyll probably fall apart. Shaft looks odd as well so pay attention to that if you get them

>>15011520
I've got a pair coming in black oiled smooth. I was debating that or cxl but the durability of the oiled smooth (used in the smokejumper firefighter boot) plus the variability of cxl's grain pushed me towards oiled. I will eventually get some cxl boots though, probably the custom bounty hunter makeup offered on bakers.

I think all the options are viable, it comes down to personal preference. And if you aren't using bakers for sizing/custom makeups for the MP, you're doing yourself a disservice.

>>15011563

Not that anon, I got a pair of black DMs, default unpolished, wore them from august 2017, took them until June 2018 to develop a hole at the back of one of the boots, where there's the straight piece coming from the sole up to the loop.
Took it a week to get much worse.
I walked about 5-10 miles a day at work back then (just walking, no manual labor)

So I got these now, needed something to be instead of my torn DMs.

I own two pairs. One in black CXL and one in brown oiled smooth.
The brown smooth ones are bulletproof. That leather is seriously though, but not uncomfortable at all. The CXL ones are a lot softer and more comfortable to wear longer because of the nature of CXL. The CXL ones scuff extremely easily, the finish on them is paper thin. That's something to be aware with CXL

>>15012120

Eww chukkas.

Post pics of Coniston and islay please.

>>15012163
I thought these boots 're made for walking?

How long should a good boot last?

>>15012166
I've unironically seen your posts on reddit (not soiposting). Your boots look great. I actually like the scuffed up black cxl, but I'm sketched out by potential loose grain. Whites seems to do a great job with their clicking though.

I challenge you, /boots/, to post a picture of a boot with a zipper on the side that doesn't look gay as fuck.

Brown shell cordovan.

My job requires that I work in very wet environments and as such buys me new boots every 6 months. Last pair were Timberland PRO 6” Direct Attach, and they have been fantastic, never once have my feet gotten wet despite walking through up to 6 inches of water for extended periods of time.

The company policy changed and now my budget has increased from 125 to “just buy Redwings or something”. I just hit the 6 month mark and want my new boots. What do I buy with that same or better performance with that budget.

Id like a pair that are slightly smaller and easier to get in and out of than the Timberlands, but with the same comfort and water resistant properties, or, just a cool ass boot for lighter use and ill keep using the Timbs.

Suggestions pls

I always use shoe trees with my CXL boots just to be extra careful with creasing. So far so good after a while of owning them.
The oiled smooth ones I always forget or just don't care about shoe trees.

>>15009440

>>15010833

what price do florsheims typically go for, and is their new stuff as good as their old cordovan stuff?

>>15012391
neck yourself mongrel cuck,which shithole are you from?

>>15013504
$150-$300~
My father used to buy his shoes at this Florsheim store on my city and they had lasted him for years. Not sure if their new models with the rubbber sole last as long as their goodyear welted ones though.

>>15013628
is it worth picking up a pair used at all? im seeing characteristic top grain creasing, but the smoothness of the leather makes me think corrected grain. its not a currently listed model either. soles look solid quality though, a rich looking leather with rubber inserts and a welt that seems to go under the heel block.

>>15013636
If you have the chance, hold it and inspect it physically. I wouldn't recommend you buying second hand apparel online, since sellers can just take pictures of their stuff from a certain angle to hide imperfections and damages.

>>15013654
yeah its always a risk, but the savings are such that im willing to take a punt if i think ive a solid idea of it. ive so many expenses at the moment it seems smarter to accept the idea of buying used, maybe putting in some work renovating them if need be, and holding off on the nice carminas or whatever til im more flush. wrinkles in uppers can be sorted out from what ive gathered, soles are always fixable for a price assuming the uppers or welt arent damaged. just a matter of finding a shoe with a relatively healthy looking pair of uppers and insole i think.

>>15013662
Check the seller's reputation, that's also another indicator of the quality of what you're buying.
>the savings are such that im willing to take a punt if i think ive a solid idea of it
How much are we speaking?
>soles are always fixable for a price assuming the uppers or welt arent damaged
True, but sometimes it could cost you up to $130 usd for a full goodyear welt resole, which is half the price of a pair of brand new shoes from Florsheim.
I'd say go with caution, read the seller's reviews, compare with other options, look for less renown artisan brands, etc. It's not impossible to get a used pair in mint/good condition, but you just gotta be very analytical.
>t. Had spent $300 for a used pair of Saint Laurents that broke within the first 4 months of use

>>15013684
>How much are we speaking?
up to a tenth of the MSRP on some brands going by auction sniping

>True, but sometimes it could cost you up to $130 usd for a full goodyear welt resole
guess id best look for relatively undamaged soles then.

>t. Had spent $300 for a used pair of Saint Laurents that broke within the first 4 months of use
a fair point senpai, ill exercise caution

i messaged the seller for a bit more info, all i got out of him was a message saying hed posted new photos which showed me nothing new, and telling me the size of the shoes width. man says its a D, which i believe is 2 steps below average shoe width. all in all id say its a rather dubious listing, and a D with if its the same as UK widths is far too narrow for me.

>>15013694
Stay safe anon, be smart, don't overpay for brand names, and look for quality andstyle so that you get the most out of your cold hard earned money.

>>15013636
Florsheims are shit these days. CG and made in India. Have been for the past ten years or so. Spring for Allen Edmond, the extra cost will be well worth it over the course of a life time.

Fuck no man, a good pair of boots should stand up to walking a few miles a day for a year, and not start splitting apart like garbage. Maybe a small hole or some shit breaks down inside, but not the seams splitting apart.

>>15019876
They are actually awesome fucking winter boots and I wish I could have kept them for myself but they run small. 43 fit like 9 US

>>15016452
Yeah I’ve had pairs for years due to family owning a farm. Everyone wants to dress in some sort of blue collar way, so that’s probably why blunnies got so popular. But they’re pretty nice. They’ve at least doubled in price in the last 10 years. The soles do fall apart after some time and because they’re glued you can only go to a limited amount of cobblers. But they’re also a great brand as in they’ll replace your boots for free if you bought them from them or a direct seller. If you’re any kind of ag owner they used to give you deals. Don’t know if they do that anymore. But I still wear them to this day.

>>15020169
Also to add, I grew up and still live in eastern Washington which is pretty dry for the most part. I know that if you live in a wet and hot climate they don’t last as long.

>>15017832
you post your boots constantly in these threads specifically trying to do some le epic triggering of le epic snowflakes and then you bitch when people don't like your shitty low quality posts. Why are you here

>>15020321
i post to contribute. i'm observing the reactions. i'll continue to do both

>>15020327
>i post to contribute
Your posts have proven time and time again that this is simply not true.

>>15020327
>wow guys look it’s me the same guy with the same boots posting the same picture again with nothing else to offer or engaging in discussion on the thread
>anyone who dares criticize my boots on a boots thread is just a jealous ass hater

>>15020346
it's demonstrably true. posting boots is one of the main purposes of the boots thread.
>>15020351
still waiting on anything beyond "le ebin troll" tier posts. you should probably post an epic soijak manoeuvre now haha

Why the FUCK can't everything be measured in mm sizing
Just wanna buy some milsurp nigga

>>15020516
>ecks dee all you guys do is soi wojack
every time you post your boots you're just baiting for responses and not actually trying to discuss anything.
go seek validation somewhere else.

lmao i forgot how ridiculous people are in here, don't listen to them anon, heel is fuckin' 2cm and it's a pretty basic looking boot, it seems pretty easy to pull off

>>15017542
thisssss

cop or not

>>15009147
Real question is how do you deal with the fact that it takes you the longest to put your shoes on when you're in the situation where you have to put them on/off so everyone is waiting for you?

>>15021676
Don't care

>>15021676
A few months ago I went to fuck a prostitute. When I was taking my boots and clothes off she just stared at me, it's was so awkward and uncomfortable and it made me want to do it as quick as possible. Boots definitely take much longer than trainers.

I don't know why she did it, look at your phone or something, Jesus Christ.

>>15021676

I learnt boot lacing.

>>15021529
salomon seem breddy gud from what ive heard, if you walk a lot go for it. better than fucking karimoor.

Cop or not?
On sale for 38 Euro; original price was 87.
It's dirt cheap but I'm kind of short on money now, however I also need new boots because sole is fucked up on my old ones and I'm not sure whether replace the sole or just cop new ones.

Do you live in a nordic country/canadia? or else why do you want to buy boots when spring is just around the corner.With that being sad cop if you think you really need them right now and replacing the sole isn't a cheaper option

Your problem is that you wear skinny jeans with your boots. Stop it, get some proper trousers. They will balance out your silhouette

>>15022104
gotta show off the shit leather in high definition to keep people from buying them

>>15022098
Ireland, but given the weather here I'll be able to wear them for atleast next two months. But yeah I got them, they really are dirt cheap. So even if they are shit and fall apart by the next season It's okay because I'll get my soles replaced on the decent boots by then.

>>15021676
let them wait. My expeinsive boots are more important then their feefees. If it bothers you get army boots so you can lace them up in less than 5 seconds

How concerned should I be with the outsole separating from the midsole here? It has separated all the way down to the welt stitching. The boots are two months old. The other boot is separating as well, although not quite as bad.

>>15022668
check to see if they’re still under warranty

>>15022676

>buys chinkshit $80 boots expecting them to last for a year with 10 miles a day usage
>GUYS THEYRE SO BAD! WHY DIDNT THEY LAST LONGER!

I've been looking for pair of boots similar to picrel for at least a year. Where can look for if i want to spend less than $100 besides ebay, grailed, yahooauc and the local Craigslist?

>>15012041
>tanning bed
fucking your skin over is as far from effay as possible. and forcing tans instead of obtaining them naturally? might as well go get spray-on instead, at least the shame washes off in the shower with that.

>>15023024
>spending <$100 on a pair of boots
good luck with that

>>15014675
These look like absolute fucking ass. Holy shit, how much did you spend for this thrash? If it was over 200 you done fucked up

>>15021529
hell yea brother, get em. I have a pair. keep in mind they run a bit small, esp if you wear hiking socks. if ur a size 10 I have a pair for sale on grailed since I had to size up.

>>15023138
Dumb reply

boots that are such a deep brown theyre almost black? but still brown? wtc

>>15022892
Ever owned a pair or red wing?

>>15014675
Your boots suck

>>15023278
Thanks anon. Unfortunately ima manlet and usually wear size 7.5, but I guess I'll size up to 8 or 8.5 for the salomons

>>15023333
i have fucked a girl on her period if that's what you're asking

Should i? i love these, but i need your opinion before i buy them

I want some decent Chelsea boots in black with no bullshit broguing or stitching or memes. I want full or top grain leather, and stitched construction. I’d also like to spend less than $300, if possible. Is my best bet still Meermin, or are those a leddit meme? Would I be better off just getting Allen Edmonds?

please respond

How good are Thursday boots? What about Taft?

>>15023324
Color #8 shell cordovan. Or if you're a real gangster, color #16. Also, learn how to properly construct questions you inbred ESL.

I hate that base London doesn’t make fish N chips anymore. It hurts lads.

>>15025033
those look like red wing and new balance had a baby together and decided to abort it in the second trimester

>>15025047
Bend over

>>15025080
i am not a homosexual who wears red wings so no thanks

looking for a really black simple boot with quality that will last for a year or two. i own quite a few pairs of shoes and boots so i normally dont wear them everyday (aside from beaters). not looking for a boot that can be beaten into the ground and still come out stand, but also not looking for a piece of shit that will fall apart after a few wears.


for COMPARISON, NOT PRICE, i am looking for something like this. all black, thinner sole. i know this boot has the decorative markings on it but i'd prefer something that's just straight leather without the frills. also possibly interested in getting black chelseas but red pill me on that pls

>>15024189
I'm relatively new to /fa/ and in my short time here I've come to understand that all anyone on this board appears to care about is other peoples' opinions, but my attitude is that if you know you want them and have the money for them you should just buy them and wear them unapologetically. Fuck what other people think.

>>15014675
Western spy detected

>>15025997
The best pair of boots that I ever had was Bata (got them on vacation in Prague) that were pretty much what you described (black, straight leather, no decorative markings etc.) and that looked new after nearly 3 years of nearly everyday wear (with proper maintenance).

I don't know if Bata still sells them, or even if they ship abroad but for about 70$ I got single best piece of footwear I ever owned.

>>15026518
>>15025997
Ok I just checked and they apparently have website for only like 5 european countries and bunch of third world ones. Shame.

>>15019403
Are you a female? Yes, buy them, no? Don't.

>>15026694
Good advice. My wife has three pairs of Docs, I have zero.

>>15025997
Never heard of someone actually seeking out boots that won't last.

>>15012796
On point.

>>15025997
>quality that will last for a year or two
You have to go back, Toby.

Dehner Tankers are alright as well.

If you say so, boss.

>>15027186
did you accidentally take home bowling shoes and leave your boots at the bowling alley?

>>15027202
You don't have vintage or bespoke bowling shoes?

Which soles should I get when my shitty rubber crepe soles wear out?

>>15027113
These look cool. I wanted some high quality combat boots without going for Dior. What are they like?

>>15024205
Meermin is the only one I can think of in that price range other than Thursday, which I wouldn't recommend. If you're willing to save up AE boots, just go for RM Williams instead

should I buy this boot?

Thorogood 1892 with some special makeup for context. really good price. last one is my size.

>>15013071
Go to some workwear store and say that you have a stipend. Look for something with a membrane and a boa with as low weight as possible. Since durability doesn't matter you can get lots of synthetics and a cushy sole.

>>15009234
You need any copies anon? Just let me know

>tfw the cobbler saves your boots from the bin

>>15009376
>>t.
Nice boots you fat fuck.

>>15009942
Thats if you wear shoes too small you absolute fucking brain dead cunt

>>15016979
>Everyone lauds Blundstones for build quality but they still have glued soles, I don't get it
Because they're glued very well
Stitches wont hold your boot together anyway, they're for looks mostly, it's the glue that does 90% of the job. Actual work boots don't have stitched soles

>>15029155
>Actual work boots don't have stitched soles

Why do burgers like their high heels so much?

>Actual work boots don't have stitched soles
Mine do.

>>15025210
Red Wings makes great work boots, outside of their “heritage” line. Not all laborers are faggots, but the soi sipping a soi latte walking around limp wristed wearing meme rangers undoubtedly is

>>15028635
The stitching looks just like their regular model for actual work use. Only difference being they’ve moved the US flag tag to the tongue and put a 1892 thing above it.

can i stretch out the heels on my boots if the heel and ankle are stitched together? does the stitching have to have a certain amount of elasticity in it in order for the heel to be stretched out?

>>15029380
It is p much the same except much higher quality Horween leather than the standard like which is more expensive than this on sale.

Looking to cop a nice pair or suede chelseas that aren't overpriced because of branding. These go for $250 on Farfetch w/ taxes and shipping to my shithole included. Thoughts?

>>15029991
Another tone of brown.

>>15030004
Or maybe a pair of black leather ones.

>>15028912
t?

Also I'm not fat. And lastly I bet your shitty boots can't compare.
