/btg/ BOOT GENERAL - HANDSEWN SEASON SOON EDITION

What do I need to care for my boots?
>Old cotton t shirt (one for cleaning, another for applying conditioners)
>Horsehair brush ($10-15)
>Wooden shoe trees ($10-15)
>Light conditioner like Lexol/Bck4/renovateur
>Heavy conditioner (if you live in terrible snow/rain areas) Sno seal/Obernauf LP
>Don't forget that boots need time to dry properly, rotate them and don't wear them daily for too long

How do I deal with x stain?
>mud: allow it to dry then brush off
>salt: water and cloth as soon as possible
>saturated wet: allow the boot to dry for a full day, stuff with newspaper
>scuffs and scratches: buff vigorously with horsehair brush

>Should I buy turdsdays/soloshits/doc shitans?
No they are filled with synthetic materials aimed at instant comfort but will not hold up to actual use.
>b-b-but muh ecelebs on youtube said they're good
no. you will waste your time and money and still have uncomfortable footwear at the end of the day. spend the extra $100 and get something real.

I have no idea why people like dainite. Vibram christie, vibram mini-lug, or vibram fire & ice
You can work in all of those. Mini-lug is even subtle enough to be worn in most offices as long as the rest of the boot is dressy.

I think dainite has only hung around because it's english and Vibram isn't. Muh nationalist pride.

I like them. If you want style of boot, it's the better choice over Doc Martens.
Construction is fine. Shipping is fast as hell. They send everything DHL, with no shipping fee. Got my last pair in just 2 days. Not bad for UK to New York.
I'm wearing a pair of 8 eye boots in Guacho Crazy Horse that I've had for a couple months now. Just ordered a pair of Astronaut boots in hi-shine Oxblood red, white laces.
Anons in these threads shit on the brand to no end, but I doubt any of them actually own a pair.

ok called them and they told me the same thing
>They don't do returns in money anymore, store credit or nothing
>can't exchange if they don't have a better size

so now it's either ebay, which I could actually probably flip them for a profit because they were on sale and these are one of the $900 dollar models, or put up with it. which I'm probably fine with because my biggest complaint is that they don't look nearly as good as they do in pictures.

Styling suggestions welcome, I heard these were basically the best dress boots you could buy at this price range that doubled as work/shitkickers because they're built like a tank.

>>17482178
it depends what you do with the boot.
I wouldn't want a gusseted tongue on a boot i wear to the office, no advantage to it and you will probably sweat more. 2030 vibergs are nothing more than office boots, some retard on reddit might show off how hes taking his $1500 viberg shell boots through mud and water because they can, doesn't mean normal people actually do. Anyway i think the BCT 2030s don't have a gusseted tongue while the plain toe ones do, at least my 2 pairs are like that.

That's good to know. I was thinking they are my 'sunday best' shoes, now. My dress shoes are square toe abominations which looked weird even before I bought a pair of boots. So I suppose they're my office boots, now.

Related, I'm kind of having a problem where I put them on and become great clown pagliacci. I read before I got them that the solution was to embrace the honk and the styling would be naturally, but I would like to become this guy and not that clown if possible.

Then call your card holder and complain to them. Just because a store says "lmao no" doesn't mean it won't happen. It just means you've exhausted your options and now you take it up with the card. I swear, it's like you faggots are children and spending your parents' money. Call up your credit card and say "hey, they don't have my size and will only do store credit but they don't have anything in my size, I want to nullify this purchase and report the vendor" and let them do their thing.

I see, so mail it back, say they will never have my correct size so it's kind of pointless for the store credit thing, and take it up with my credit card to refund it?

You call your card first and tell them what's going on and store credit for something they'll never have in stock again is retarded. Tell them the boots are the wrong size and they refuse to exchange it, only give store credit, because they just don't have your size and that's unacceptable. On their webpage they list the fact that they exchange boots for sizing.

No problem. There is zero need to be one of those faggots who throw a shitfit about boots being the wrong size before selling them to weirdos.

Is it true that Viberg's 2030 last is closer to an UK sizing? I'm having trouble deciding whether I should go for an 8 US or bigger for a snug fit (I'm 8 UK in Trickers, which are my only points of reference). Reckon they'll fit just the same, or will they be too short and tight?

I fucking love Trickers and wouldn't buy from any other manufacturer, if possible. Heavy and solid construction, will probably last you a decade or two. Though I must admit I don't own a calf product of them (I own a pair of comipel shells and some olivvia Bufords) and can assure you that they are my most reliable pairs. Beware the sizing, tho. I find their lasts too constricted at the toes and too loose at the heel.

I own a pair of Robert derbies in shell and a pair of Bufords in olivvia deerskin. They're quite heavy, and really solid; perfectly water repellent, if that's important to you. Their regular sizing ("5") I find too wide, and too short in the toebox, to the point that I find myself putting too much pressure in my big toes after a long day, but that's because my feet are long and thin.

i appreciate the info anon. sounds like i'll need to double check my measurements and reach out to them for help on sizing. my feet aren't terribly long but they are very wide. if i get a pair i'd like to wear it as a more casual boot that would see a decent amount of wear and wouldn't want it to ruin my feet. water repellent is a very good bonus since i live in a rainy corner of my country.

I'd recommend you to pick your regular size, and just use insoles if the boots fit too large; but take it with a pinch of salt, for the aforementioned reasons, and because calf, unlike shell, tends to loosen up with wear. I'd also advice you to pick a model with the commando sole instead of the dainite. Dainite is very hard wearing, but it has such a poor traction, you wouldn't believe it. But yeah, other than that, they're amazingly durable, you really can't go wrong with them.

It's weird, keep in mind that Trickers are actually really narrow, it says E width, but it's not. It's large D at most. It is closer to a UK sizing because they use UK measurements (8 US is 7 Viberg/UK)
IMO I would call or use the chatbox to ask.

I agree that dainite is shit, but I hate how visible the lugs are on a commando sole, specifically the top lift.
I know changing a top lift isn't a big deal, but I just wish I could get it from the factory with a Vibram mini-lug sole. It's so perfect. Looks dressy enough from the side, but isn't lacking in traction unless you're really going hiking in them.

Name a better sole, I want to know if there's something else out there

I walk a lot and always carrying stuff around, but I don't do heavy duty work by any means. But yes, I'd be on the feet most of the day, and I need to be comfortable. I'm eyeing a pair of vibergs that are 25 dollars more expensive than another pair of Trickers (both on heavy discount). That's pretty much the only reason why I'm considering them, as I'd never buy a viberg pair on full retail... So long as Trickers exist, that is.

I got this viberg in what is called 'Lactae Hevea''.
It's a very soft gumsole from tree sap. Better than Dainite by a mile, feels like stepping on a cloud, and doesn't look like some giant lugs on the bottom of my foot.
That said, I wouldn't recommend it for actual work. They are office boots.

I've never owned anything with a mini lug vibram sole, but everyone says that it's the best in terms of traction and durability. I live in a very warm and dry climate, so dainite is ok for me (except for when it rains), but I wouldn't mind trying one of those vibram soles.

I want to spend on bergs and the boots I got on sale just aren't to my taste because I just don't like Dainite and more importantly: they are lined boots. This matters because I live in Texas, and my feet will turn to pudding in the summer months in a kip lined boot AFAIK (If I'm wrong please correct me)

So unlined is important, just don't like Dainite from experience, toe cap is meh, kinda faggy but it's Texas so I'm not out of place, speedhooks are great for taking it on and off when I have to leave the office.

I've been through the catalog btw, and the closest that fit all of these criteria are these two. so I guess the real question of these is, if I'm in a business casual environment and just want nice looking boots to wear out and about with primarily jeans, which would look better?

The 2030s I was exchanging for fit nicely. no clue how 1035s fit but from the description they are just 2030s with a bigger heel, right?

Daily wear boots will show wear and tear. Formal boots should never show wear and tear. The newer they look the better.
This is why two pairs of boots has been the standard for a long, long time. We can go back to cowboys of the 1800s and they'd still have a daily work boot, and then a "going to town" boot.

>>17485449
You can get an acceptable daily wear workboot for 200-300. Justins, Carolinas, Thorogood, Red Wings.
White's are overkill for 99% of people. Yes I own them, yes I love them, but the most abuse they see is hiking.

How to clean mold out of boots?
I left some boots over the past few years due to basically not having to go out as often, or at all, and now there's some with what looks like mold.
In another thread an anon said
>wipe down the interior of the boot with a 1:99 bleach water mix
Really? Won't that fuck them up?
Some old viberg 2030's I got nearly a decade ago, I mean I haven't worn them in ages but I wouldn't want to ruin them. Humidity is high where I live.

thats a very commonly used disinfectant blend, don't go full retard and saturate the interior, just wipe it down with a damp cloth with that 1:99 blend

also just buy those darn toughs you cheap fuck
