Not the guy who you replied to but I take you don't have much experience about boots?

I have owned tons of boots, including RW Iron Rangers and I can tell you the toe box in the is nothing special, definitely not large by any means. It's propably close to avarage. It's not big even in RW standards, and compared to say Wolverine 1k Miles it's even considerably smaller.

you could also have a gander at the Frye Arkansas, which looks a bit more like the 1000 mile but is slimmer

So basically, "I really like Clarks, but /fa/ will call me a pleb, so I will find something insignificant to not like about them, state how much I hate it, and then ask for help finding items that look exactly the same."

Don't shop for work boot inspired boots then, but dressier ones like chelsea boots, wingtip ankle boots, etc. I guess you don't want desert boots since they would be the obvious choice with your requirements.

I'm imagining some kind of device that shoots light across a room and allows you to watch moving images on any plain surface (preferably white)

well DB's have crepe soles which is the issue. there is the desert trooper I guess, but I personally always thought they looked kinda clunky

lol nice try. i have some of their dbs without the sole. would probably cop if they didn't have the crepe sole. i just dig the small toebox.

>Don't shop for work boot inspired boots then
i'm shopping for whatever bro. should probably have said price max is ~200 usd but could go higher if worth it.

tims aren't moc toe they're just... ugly. but yeah aldo cheap as fuck but what do you expect with a $200 limit.
>you expect to not buy good boots

you know I don't actually like those Visvims that much. Patrician's and those fuckers with the raw denim are the shit though.

But if I had a spare $1500 I probably wouldn't spend it on a single pair of boots

Honestly, it's been said but not well defended; Buy the Clark's and get them resoled.

Clark's are of decent quality provided you're not purchasing factory seconds or anything like that. Resoles, depending on what you're looking for, should be around $40, give or take $15 or so - that's not a bad investment at all, and not much more, to get you exactly what you'd like from a boot.
