The made in England ones are OK. there was a limited edition horween a friend of mine has that is actually quite good although no longer available. I'd go with solovair personally as you get more bang for your buck.

I have the ten eyelet ones and wear them with tucked black pants, girls compliment them a lot so if that's what you care about it's worth $120 or whatever

Only śoyboys wear chink docs. English made, Solovair, or milsurp. Other wise kill yourself in real life unironically.

>> No.14959941

There are two reasons to buy Docs:

1) you have some staid punk investment in a mediocre take on classic combat boots, in which case you should move the fuck on from the ‘80s, and if unable to do so should follow the advice ITT about alternatives

2) You’re one of those people with no taste who buys something because it’s the popular item in its category. You should stop being this person and seek out better quality boots. Solovair or made in England doesn’t count – you’re the same person now but pretentious.

>>14959609
Red Wings are a good alternative, actually, if you steer away from the super workwear-y styles.

A friend has a pair of Postmans resoled with Vibram Sierras – 100% hits the same chunky blucher thing people get out of low Docs but with some elegance to it. (IMO the stock wedge sole on the Postman is an abomination, though.)

Yeah. I got some red ones. Nothing but compliments.

I'd only buy them used. I bought a pair of their canvas boots off ebay for like 30 bucks. I like wearing during this time of year.

Their leather shit is way over priced and looks kinda shitty, at least in my opinion.

Yes, this place hates anything mainstream.

Of course, they're not made for hiking up a mountain, but for everyday wear, they're fine.

If you're incapable of free thought they are a great pair of boots.

a pretty good investment honestly, I've had my docs for 3 years now and have yet to see any wear or tear since, I would wear them every day for months and still have yet to see any harm done to them. Perfect ass kickers for shows too
