>12.5 heel to ball
>11.5 heel to toe
>C width on 12.5
11EE is too tight at the toes and loose at the balls. Do I go 11.5D or 12C for 55 last with whites? I did whites sizing different parts of the foot and they said 11.5D

I have a pair of dr martens that I love but are getting a bit worse for wear. I was think I would get some solovairs as nice little upgrade and to treat myself. Should I get ox blood or black?

>>17925622
do they have rainbow colored ones? get those ya fairy

I guarntee you would say shit to me irl I’m a 260 pound punk and I’m on skittles

Wait, are you trying to be intimidating over the internet by bragging about weighing 260 kg on an alpaca farming forum?

>>17925603
what is the harness on pic related for? can you tighten the harness somehow or is just aesthetic?

>>17925664
aesthetic

>>17925664
signifies to other men that you are gay and open for business

>>17925664
look at the wesco morrisons for without the harness

>>17925664
I'm pretty sure it's just an aesthetics and historical significance thing.

Unless you are very into trains and feel something meaningful about the historical significance of boots developex for the first train engineers, then it's just a looks thing for you.

Thoughts? For someone who has 0 brown pairs of anything.

I’m a size 10.5 US on a brannock. Does anyone know which size I should buy in French BM65s? I’m looking at the Argueyrolles-made ones in particular.

I can't find any black leather chelsea boots for under $500 that I like, at this point i'm just gonna wait another check and get some bespoke ones for $800 from a local place.

All ugly gay boots
What a gay thread
You all belong on reddit not fa

are doc martens relevant in 2020+3? I need a pair of black combat/jump boots and was eyeballing picrel (Chippewas Service Utility)

>>17925622

>>17925881
More than relevant. Don't listen to the old-ass dumbfucks itt wearing only brown oxfords and the shills of overpriced shit like whites or nigs, they are the reason this thread is the most autistic out of all on this board.

>>17925927
How about you find a new picture to spam? How old is that one, 1 year already, more? Let alone that there are countless good reviews out there that you conveniently ignore every time.

Theres nothing superior to the swiss army issue KS90 Kampfstiefel 90. Mogs every other boot ever made.

>>17925810
There's a local shop that does made-to-measure for $600 and bespoke for $1k. For the mtm stuff they just measure you in store and ship it off to some spanish factory I think, but the leather is high quality so I'm considering giving it a try.

Already shown you exactly where you're wrong in one of the previous threads, it doesn't make any sense for me to repeat myself. You're illiterate, unfortunately. Educate yourself on how to analyze data and think logically, then come back here.

>>17926466
You haven't shown anything at all. Only seething because I deferred a lot of people from buying your garbage product.

for boots with extra long laces, are you supposed to tie them round the back of the boot?

>>17926481
You can.

>>17926481
lace em around the shaft

Poorfag here, need some boots until 70€ max for this winter.

>>17926457
Assuming this is the OP. I recognized you across many thread commenting the same "sour grapes" narrative.
Well, in life, most of the times, people dislike something because they genuine dislike it. I don't go see The Marvels because Im sour graping over the filmmaking of it.
Is this thought of yours from a place of insecurity or just an off hand remark to dismiss any opinion you don't like? Sounds like reddit tier safe space to me desu.

>>17926484
of my hot cock?

>>17926415
it's the same slav retard with trashy euro milsurp, that was spamming the threads with sizing recommendations for cheap cowboy shit he found online without even checking if they'll even ship to him from the US like a complete clown
after that he was spamming for roper recommendations every day sort of as a running joke to distract from his retardation, shooting down everything that was over $200 or american, calling it ugly and trash
he got increasingly hostile as people stopped replying with actual recommendations and would just rightly ignore or tell him to get a job
and now it morphed into this
same posting pattern and hours, same need to get first reply in every thread, same need to get the last word in and reply to everything

coincidentally now the threads are spammed with obvious bait, samefagging, trashy euro milsurp and everthing american is cringe
in short, poverty is a state of mind

Gosling’s bates that he wore in Blade Runner, comfiest pair of boots I’ve ever owned
Mainly use them for work but surprisingly easy to wear with everyday stuff

Gosling's boots from blade runner, easily the comfiest pair of footwear I've ever owned
Which checks out considering they're meant to be police/tactical issue, but still, and they've lasted like 4+ years of near daily use at my job & just now are really starting to wear

If you hate Doc or Solovair, you are poor because you can't afford them, that's why you hate them.

No they're just garbage and they look like shit.

Doc and Solovair are sour grape for you.

They're clearly aren't. You don't know what that means.

>>17926619
kek, go to bed slavshit

>>17926632
Judging from your reaction, they are your sour grape. Hit a nerve, didn't I?

>>17926645
No, you definitely didn't, because you clearly don't know what that means. Especially since there's a post itt proving you wrong.

>>17926650
It's so obvious now doc and solovair are your sour grapes.

Prove it.

You got a mouse in your pocket? Because nobody in here likes these garbage boots.

I wonder who has more sex between solovair wearers and whites wearers

Are wedge soles in style? I’ve been using them for about 10 years now

>>17927064
they never were unstylish, just that most crepe soles were moc toes, now more makers are trying it with non mocs

>>17927076
My boots with the crepe were always thorogood moc steel toes. So you’re probably right.

Thoughts?

>>17927089
6" is the minimum acceptable height for a boot.

>>17925603
What's a good equivalent?

>>17927098
Carmina Jodhpur Boots

>>17927081
I tried on a pair of Thorogoods the other day. Idk why, they just felt kind of cheap compared to the Danner's I usually use for work boots. They are in the same price range and I've heard such good things about the Thorogood moc's but the leather felt so plasticky to the touch like it had some kind of weird coating on it.

Am I getting got by brand preferences (even though I'm not some Danner loyalist or something)?

>>17927099
thanks & nice dubs, any recs for the ~100-300 price range?

>>17927101
Not sure. I wore my last pair all the way down and are fit to resole but I don’t need steel toes anymore so am buying a nice pair of whites instead. Thinking of the 350 cs

>>17927105

not for Jods no. Its kind of an obscure style. I'd just find some cheleas

>>17927111
thanks anon. going to keep on the hunt for a fair priced our legacy camion

wher edo I get good, warm duckboots which aren't too expensive. I just bought Vibergs, so I don'Tt have that much money right now, and I noticed that they're more fall boots and not as warm.

>>17927128
stick with the original

darn tough socks

>>17927059
the guy is a schizo though

>>17927064
Why would someone pay $500 for such ugly boots?

>>17925881
Go to a doc marten store and try on several pairs
Doc martens have some of the moss unbelievably stupid uncomfortable shoes for the price but also some of them are comfortable. You need to try them on. Two pairs can look the exact same but one of them will be the most hilariously uncomfortable shoe you could ever imagine wearing.

Would a horse hair brush fix this? It’s brown cxl

>>17927332
rub it with your thumb

>>17927332
>270 degree stitchdown
>don't cut the edge closer at the heel
for what?
Also just rub and brush it for a while, should work fine.

After wearing my Carminas 2-3 times normally I took them on a trip
Wore them 12+ hours a day, walked 2+ hours every day, a lot of uphill/downhill, one day it was raining.

Really glad I took them, very comfy, solid, waterproof.

>>17927358
i hope mine finally arrive soon. Are those triple soles?

>>17927364
Double sole but with the sole made out of rubber milk or something
It's really soft and silent but I don't know if I prefer it over ridgeway

>>17927366
oh thats why it looks thick, i got some of those soles from a different bootmaker, they are alright i guess. Londra is supposed to be better than ridgeway, so im excited to try my Bonafe MTO's with Londra.

>>17927367
>Londra
Looks like ridgeway, how is it better?

>we want the wet dog audience
you just know this came up at some point

About to order some 70 dollar military boots

>>17927370
supposed to be softer, also the heel isn't as big, so you get more leather.

Thanks anon. Are these good quality?

>>17927376
That's actually cool about the heel
Definitely going to try it next time I order a Bonafe MTO

I don't really know what kind of MTO I should do though. Maybe a dark brown chukka but that's a next year project, order in like May-June.

>>17927541
yes anon the $800 pnw boot made for and QC'd by a reputable company is good quality

>>17927541
Yes but I'm not sure on waxed flesh
Maybe safer to go with like a brown double shot from White's website

>>17927603
should be noted that i literally just asked them for Londra soles, and they just ordered a batch. I have no clue how much they ordered and if they are gonna restock it. Also i went thru skoak, so best ask them.

>>17927719
Kek

>>17927734
basically division road gets a custom or unusual makeup and sells it
dunno if it's like an exclusive makeup

rivet and hide does the same with Vibergs in the UK and ships to EU

darn tough bros, do i want full cushion or just "cushion" ?

>>17927872
depends, how does your boot fit? Do your feet sweat? Are you flat footed or arched? how heeled are your boots?

>>17927874
I'd be wearing them with rather wide boots, i sweat quite a lot on my feet and they are arched. Normal commando heel.

>>17927372
sneakers

>>17927541
yes. thicker than average hides, quality components, the arch support will take a little to get used to

>>17927872
you get additional padding on the full cushion, it depends on your boot, climate, try both

>>17927734
division road is a retailer that get exclusive makeup not normally available

>>17927944
yea i just got both.

>>17925603
What do you guys think of these?

Im usually a timberland guy but these look nicer, made in europe and half the price right now.

Also if my feet measure 11 inches heel to toe will ten and a half fit? the sizing chart says they are for 11.5 inch feet. My tims are 10.5. Im just nervous as ive never ordered shoes online.

>>17928036

>>17928041
Goddamn nigger, im a basic bitch looksmaxxed normiecel. Im not gonna order handcrafted caranthian leather small batch boots made by some faggot in an atelier. I live in a canadian town of 100,000 people and my gf wears lululemon yoga pants 99% of the time. Just tell me if its a decent buy and if they will most likely fit me. I already have analysis paralisis and my fucking tims are literally 10 years old and make weird noises when i walk on smooth surfaces

>>17928036

>>17928054
A word of advice: timebox your decisions. I've been in the same situation when I was picking my boots, and setting a deadline made me finally make a decision. Even if you regret it, you at least filtered out a bad option.

>>17928072
Im at a deadline. My boots were falling apart 2 years ago and i absolutely need new ones now. I need someone to tell me if those are decent. Im inclined to think so for the price. Tims have done good by me so far so these must be good too right?

>>17928097
no

I'm getting a pair..

>>17928101
are you fucking wit me?

>>17928105
no they are not good

>>17928107
why not?

>>17928065
you don't need black boots and if you had a wardrobe around black you'd have them already
that being said this and the alden 401 are probaly the most versitile and casual black boots you can get, aside from going with chunky wedge soles

>>17928097

are they decent quality? comfy?

>>17928198
they're excellent quality and value

equivalent quality/materials/construction to 600-700$ boots but <400$ because they're made in china

>>17927358
I got a pair similar to these. Need inspiration for pants (severe case of autism).

>>17928205
wear a skirt. or a dress

>>17928202
they are not even close to C&J in any way. They might be a $400-450 boot at most, TLB Mallorca is the one that's punching well over their price range.

>>17928211
need pics

>>17928205
in the same color?

>>17928202
the closest equlvalent quality/materials/construction wise in US is truman boots and they cost $410-460, but they use actual vibram soles, not some propietary chinese rubber clone soles
so they are about $50 cheaper being made in china

>>17925621
Just skip that brand. The problem with direct from china boots is that the sizing will always be inconsistent

>>17928221
yes

>>17928205
navy, choc brown, most shades of gray

>>17928231
like any earth tones man, burgundy works with most colors. I would only avoid red on red.

>>17928202
>equivalent quality/materials/construction to 600-700$ boots
desu id say theyre around $450-500

>>17926439
That's pretty much every btg is just the Chinese dropshippers shilling their le heckin based "pnw boots." Grifting the shit out of dumb chuds.
They are so quality and so durable, but make sure you wipe them down if you step in a puddle, don't get mud on them, apply protective wax since they aren't waterproof, and actually just don't wear them every day, and don't ask why or you're a shill!

>>17928223
>but they use actual vibram soles
truman also has their own soles
having your on sole isnt always an issue. sometimes an off the shelf sole doesnt work on your last

>>17927946
Nice thanks I’m excited to buy them.

>>17925603
picked up these freestyle combat boots off varusteleka, so far I'm liking them. only gripe is that there's a small cut on the left boot that while won't affect structural durability, does activate my autism. nothing some leather glue wouldn't fix, and considering they are sub 300 dollar boots I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase

>>17928337
stitchdown?

>>17928338
yup

>>17928337
looks ok for sub 3

Nice yeah they look pretty decent trying to step outside of vans territory

The problem with buying cheap shit is that after you buy it you realize you're stuck with cheap shit for however many years.

>>17928507
i was joking, they're shit

>>17928607
Nice tranny straps

>>17928422
theyre military issue boots that have been used by the south African army since the 60s

>>17928508
Yeah but saving up if I get atleast a year out of each I won't be mad typically a pair of vans last me 14 months continueous
>>17928510
Oh could have been honest
>>17928534
Brand is called restoration.
Idk kinda thinking to go for vans and maybe go for the chucka or one of the boots. OK how about this? Leaning towards these chuckkkas

>>17928650
>Yeah but saving up if I get atleast a year out of each I won't be mad typically a pair of vans last me 14 months continueous
Not as good of a value as you think it is

Bought myself some handmade western boots, is mink oil a meme? Any products i should use on them before wear?

>>17928722
>Any products i should use on them before wear?
unless the leather feels dry, no. Mink oil will darken the leather. Just use something like saphir leather lotion for conditioning.

>>17928722
mink oil will likely darken your leather too much

>>17928725
>>17928731
Thanks for the advice bros.

>>17928734
now please assume the position

>>17928722
From whom? The fit looks bad.

>>17928717
Care to elaborate? How long you expect them to last? Can pleather be cared for?

ID on these badboys?

>>17928767
Sendra boots, you can tell from such a blurry pic? They have a long shaft and im leanining hard on one side to take the pic so the crinkling seems inevitable nomatter the fit?

>>17928722
>>17928779
How's the sizing on those?
Also do not use mink oil unless you're gonna use them for work and are OK with leather darkening a lot (from tan to dark brown, probably)

>>17928783
47EU, tried on a 46 aswell but they didnt fit me. 47 is my regular shoesize aswell btw.

>>17928784
I assume your sneaker size is a 48EU?

>>17928789
47 aswell, depends on the shoe ofcourse.

It looks very burgundy in the photo but irl they're like a dark brown, only a bit of burgundy in them.
They look more red indoors and in low light though.
In pic related they look lighter than they actually are.

I wear them with just about everything, navy, khaki (dark), mid grey, even some nice soft dark green cords I bought from cavour last year on sale.

I listed my Carminas for sale on ebay.
Great boots, bad fit for me.
Carmina mis-sized me, these were my first ever expensive boots. And it was from their "GMTO" section so no returns.

They're 650€ now but I paid like 400€ last year during a sale.
Listed them 180 + 40 shipping. Let's see.

>>17928274
>>17928464
Whites sells the same boot not hand welted for $460 on sale. I think the leather options are different too. And they have a structured toe. Maybe some other differences too I don’t pick up on. See this post >>17927064

>>17928047
if your timbs lasted 10 years then get another pair

>>17928851
that shitty pebbling looks bad and your girl shoes look almost as gay as these >>17928907

>>17928607
those look nice, but aren't you embarrassed by wearing such a manly pair of boots?
kinda like wearing a fake Rolex ain't it?

>>17929019
>kinda like wearing a fake Rolex ain't it?
wesco engineers would be a real rolex

Every time Cavour sends me an email about some product i always try to guess what the price is going to be and I always get it horribly wrong.

Anyway they have like -50% sales twice a year and it doesn't cover all items and I don't know if 750€ would still be a "deal" for a coat.

>>17929051
for a 100% cashmere, fully canvased, fully lined overcoat with handstitched button holes it is actually quite a deal
but it's an overcoat so it's designed to be worn with a suit jacket underneath, so if you intend to wear it as a coat by itself like in the pic the fit won't be good, in the wider sleeves especially

>>17929051
I don't like it, too trim and short. Something like Rishi Sunak and other middle-aged dads would wear.

Get a Kaptain Sunshine Traveller Coat or Drake's Raglan Coat.

>>17929115
I was at a work dinner the other day and the guy sitting next to me chose not to give his coat to the waiters (big mistake when sitting next to me) and I accidentally dropped a knife coated with mash and gravy that landed on his coat (which was dragging on the floor).

I feel kinda bad about it, imagine if it was like a 1500€ coat.

>>17926100
I like mine, they're stiff as fuck though.

>>17929047
Redpill me on engineer boots.
t engineer

>>17926100
Where’s the tranny heel? Do they make it in brown?

>>17929013
I'm never seen a girl wear Carminas.

>>17929246
well, the color on those, but the style is nice.
and that pair of shoes looks well-made, even in that shitty color they still look good.

>>17929246
They seem kind of gay. Who wears boots like that?

Anything similar to this? I know Astorflex boots look alike but they hard to come by.

>>17929379
Post your boots

>>17929387

>>17929379
guys who pretend that they are manly men.
bikers used to wear them and i guess engineers originally wore them--train engineers, not the contmemporary definition of engineer

>>17929433
I just bought these from division road
>>17928274

>>17929387
whats pic?

Any boots similar to PNW boots in ruggedness/durability in terms of leathers and general stitching etc but with 360 goodyear welted?

For real though, why do people specifically say Carminas seem feminine? I see this whenever they are posted but since I don't have an eye for it I can't tell if it's a shitpost or a product of some actual fashion rule they violate.

>>17929588
just poors shitposting about carmina

>>17929587
why do you want 360 GYW?

>>17929587
nicks has a 360 stitchdown line, but no separate welt

>>17929588
Its just an obsessed shitposter

>>17929588
It’s the feminine outline and heel you muppet

>>17925927
I bought a pair and the patch on the inside of the heel peeled off my left boot. Learned the hard way that these boots are ass.

frank's really is the nicest pnw company. i had them re-sole a pair of boots and when i went to pick them up i was asking about getting some kilties. after talking for a bit the guy went into the back, cut me two pairs of kilties, and then said i could have them for free.

>>17929719
franks is the only based PNW maker
>whites sold out
>nigs is full reddit
>jk customer service policy is fuck you
>wesco a shit

aside from canada west and boulet is there any other great boots company in canada?

>>17929726
viberg
used to be dayton but they're still contracting shit out to canada west

>>17929727
>viberg
1200$ for a pair of boots.. wtf
at least they are really nice but no thanks

>>17929725
i couldn't pass up the deal i got on my pair of nicks, but after my interactions with franks part of me wishes i had discovered them before buying the nicks off my friend.

>>17929725
I noticed nigs presence on Reddit. That’s a huge red flag for me. Can someone redpill me on franks?

>>17929728
don't go asking questions that you're not prepared to hear the answer for

>>17929765
Frank (owner of franks) and his mom/brother owned nicks for like 20 years. when they sold it frank stayed on as GM for a few years but didn't like how nigs was casualizing so hard (see: Reddit) and he quit then eventually said fuck it i like making boots and started Franks
listen to any podcast/interview/social media anything with the owner of nigs and compare to that of any media with frank and his wife and the difference is night and day
its funny tbhfam how redditards specifically sperg about muh history with nicks but franks is really nicks and nigs is now basically just beefy redwings they've changed so much about how they make boots
nigs doing machine lasting, got rid of the mckay stitch, talking about new patterns for the builder pros, their gay new brandle line of 1200-2000 dollar dogshit to compete with viberg (using their best builders so quality on the normal nigs boots continues to fall) casualizing everything to appeal to more redditards

>>17929774
>muh history
if you wanted muh history, the only option is White's anyway, afaik only ones that still do the handwelted rolled welt too.

>>17929774
Thanks. Maybe next pair I’ll buy franks. Is whites based? I guess they sold out but their marketing isn’t as cringe as nigs

>>17929779
don't get me wrong, nigs still makes great boots (for now) but the direction theyre headed is pissing me off desu
I have a pair of nigs on order because they're the only ones making the boots I want in the leather I want but whenever I can justify another pair i'm going with frank in W&C oiled latigo
>>17929778
nah franks will still do a rolled hand welt for a $50 upcharge

they're going to turn out like nigs if they get popular

keep that shit to yourself

>>17929784
>nah franks will still do a rolled hand welt for a $50 upcharge
at least i'm p sure, their website is confusing sometimes with different sections quoting different prices for certain custom features/upgrades

>>17929789
I was too retarded to use their website so j bought nicks

>>17929794
if you're in the US just call them
he or his wife will personally pick up the phone and figure it out with you

>>17929794
yeah nigs seems to have more options of the surface but not really
you just have to call and they'll get you sorted with whatever you want built

>>17929799
Nice that’s great. Their nigger pounder crepe looks excellent.

only redditors and trannies will pay 1200 for a pair of boots you can get somewhere else for 90% cheaper at the same quality level

>90% cheaper at the same quality level
i got a bridge in brooklyn to sell you

>>17929588
they look delicate and dainty and slender and they appear as if they're made for small feet with not much in the way of a sole or foot protection. as if they were made for women who barely use their feet.
and they also look like they are cheaply made.
i also saw a lot of reviews which basically said, they good for the price or they are good budget shoes.

>>17929803
Do they do pull ons or just lace ups?

>>17929813
unironically the thursday last looks dressier and more refined
just sad
