Recently got Solovair 8 eyelet boot like the one in the pic, the sizing is slightly larger than I expected, the width is alright, but I'm able to lace them to thee point where the sides are touching, what to do?

[Anonymous No.12170331]

The sides are supposed to be close for the first 3-5 eyelets and the vertical ones are supposed to touch but only slightly no crazy overlaps

I've been searching for a decent quality Chelsea boot, but I hate the standard thin sole with a heel look that a lot of them have

Ideally I want a pair that has a thick wedge or commando type of sole. Something that looks a bit more ruggard while still keeping a pretty slim profile

style? budget?

I own Guidi combat boots and they're easily my favorite but the retail price is high and they're quite slim in silhouette and sole.

I also have a pair of Balmain rangers that are quite nice, also expensive, but have a much chunkier silhouette.

If you're on a budget I'd just look at milsurp. Look around at the boots issued by various armed forces around the world and fine one you like the look of. My personal favorites tend to be the American jump boots put out by Corcoran/HH and the Austrian & German equivalents but I tend toward a slimmer profile.

I feel like the sole is too chunky for how pointy the boot is and the low shaft isn't helping

I'd return them and go for either something sleeker, taller, or maybe a commando sole instead

How much should be I be ready to pay for a 60s Bundeswehr boot that is still in great condition?

Not sure exactly but going from the price of other boots from similar sort of time anywhere up to ~£200 of course you could find some for way way less if they're just being sold by someone who found them in their attic or inherited from dead uncle so not really a minimum price
