are the meme boots worth getting?

[Anonymous No.12347842]

>>12347833
Yeah I'd say so, only paid £23 for mine and I'd say they're well worth it, I'd recommend you get a newer pair than mine which would still only be about £35. But I would definitely recommend them even if you do get some like mine, they're well built solid and only slightly less comfortable than most of my other boots (removed squeaky insole they came with)

[Anonymous No.12347860]

I'm in the uk, got mine from a seller on ebay, asking as you're using PayPal for the payment though its pretty easy to get your money back and on eBay its even easier as eBay always side with the person buying the goods, quite a lot of places online went out of stock shortly after I got mine (at the height of the memeing) but there are hundreds of milsurp websites its just a pain to search through them all

Ivan who occasionally posts here has a website called commandostore.com and his boots look to be in really good shape (apparently shipping is a bit pricey though)

there's always brick and mortar milsurp stores so just look for some near you because unless its some sort of tacticool store appealing to edgy 14 year olds they'll usually be quite a bit cheaper than the online sellers

What did he mean by this

I reccomend people don't buy doctor martens and if you choose to believe me I was the original solovair shill over a year ago now.

The racing green ones are from the 80s when they were still mie and they were £25 anyway so amazing value and would've been worth it just for the slightly different design (slimmer boot, tunnel eyelets) even if they were chinkshit, the black 1460s were 50% off and they were my first pair of boots but i didn't know to avoid them back then. The industrials are actually pretty decent boots, and I got the 1914s for the height and iconic look (skinhead) but they do seem to be much better quality than my other China docs and have the comfiest footbed out of any shoes I've ever worn, the leather isn't quite as good as my solovairs but its not far off.

>>12348507
Nah m80, pretty much any leather boots without zips, its not like a black mannequin situation that all boots with zips are terrible its just that zips 'neuter' the boots theyre on because either you don't lace them as tight as they should be in order to make zipping easier or you lace them as tight as they should be but the added stress on the zip causes them to fail quicker. And to be fair they do look pretty shitty most of the time

Why are Docs considered meme boots? I've been considering getting some 1940s and don't want to waste my money

[Anonymous No.12348812]

>>12348760
Nearly everyone has a pair so theyre common AF
They accidentally ruined their image with their punk skinhead mod 'stand for something' advertising campaign which was jumped on by sjws
Every single pairs RRP is £40 too high

The 1940s was discontinued at the same time as quite a lot of their other skinhead (and to a lesser extent 'punk') suitable boots so if you do get a pair its likely no warranty.
Don't let what other think dictate what you wear though, if you want some then get some, I would personally lean more towards a pair of grinders which are available with and without the aircushion sole

Those are the boots I was talking about, really good for the price, slightly different design I know, if you want something closer to the 1940s then solovair make 14i steels with the exact same design however these will likely be ~£175 +-25 as theyre made in england but will be much better quality than the actual 1940s

[Anonymous No.12349010]

On the left is the new boots I bought from All Saints; fuckin comfiest boots I've ever worn, they fit perfectly, and they add 2 inches to my manlet height. Really happy with them.

Boots on the right are the ones I'm replacing; got em at Nordstroms for a song but they are falling apart.

I cleaned and conditioned the All Saints with Kiwi Mink Oil which darkened them nicely and weatherproofed them. Didn't know you were supposed to do that, glad I know now.

How often should I be conditioning them? I've seen everything from weekly to monthly to once a year.

[Anonymous No.12349045]

>>12349010
I don't condition my boot, just polish them regularly instead. You don't actually need to condition them at all as long as you still give them some sort of treatment, I'd say twice a year though once after spring and once after autumn

Different boots look better with different trousers you'll have to experiment for the most part. Work boots usually look better with the trousers tucked in and most other boots look better cuffed.

Trousers which are worn with boots should be slim fit though, being tight on the calves. None of this stretch denim stuff though otherwise your boots will look overly clunky. So try and match the width of your boots with the width of your trousers

Yeah I use a pair for work, here's some protips

Take the leather inner sole out, its more then likely they'll be squeaky as fuck, also if you work around oily or wet surfaces your fucked because they suddenly have zero friction when you move around in it.

Yeah yellow stitching, it dulls down very quickly just from normal wear/accidentally rubbing a bit of polish on them, you can change the colours or replenish them a bit by rubbing a crayon across them like I have done with the 14i cherries

Hmm, depends on the colour of your boots, if they're black you're okay but if they're red you have to be more careful with the colours, I can't imagine red boots working with cargo trousers but even if it did, avoid anything that looks too militaristic, black is a safe pick here

Thinking about these, $25 + 12.50. Would be worn with pants over

I bought the Austrian meme boots a size too big and kommandostore sold out of my size by the time I got around to reordering. Feels bad man. Lots on ebay but they're all UK sellers. Otherwise I like them, they're more understated than most other old school combat boots I've seen.

Lucchese also doesn't just make western wear, they also have english style riding boots as well and more subtle western style, not just exoctic leather western wear.

I live in south Alabama, so I sort of understand what you're looking for. I wouldn't trust someone on /fa/ to give you the most logical choice for a work boot, because most of us are probably neets.

However, I would personally look into purchasing a pair of Wolverine work boots; my uncles and grandfather wore Wolverines while welding, and I know for a fact that they've been saved by them. They're uncomfortable, but they'll surely protect your feet from any of the shit thrown at you while renovating a home. If the other guys who are renovating with you wear something with less ankle support, then you could go with one that has a lower profile which will keep that region cooler. Although, they should keep you cool since my family built bridges and shit in them in the hot Georgia sun.

If you need a versatile boot that you could wear at a job that isn't as laborious and still be able to wear it off the job site, then you could look into buying a pair of Red Wings.

If you need some nice looking southern boots, then you should get some L.L. Bean Duck Boots. No scratch that, if you live in the South then you should get some work boots and some Bean boots (duck boots). They're the boots that hunters and many well-dressed southerners wear. Pic related; they're duck boots.

I don't know of any specific place to get them, I bought mine at a military clothing issue store about 5 years ago.

Horrible because those are the wrong boots to wear shorts with. Palladiums or the boots >>12379183 posted are acceptable with shorts but only if you're going safari mode or sandninja/desertcore.

>WWI silhouette

Does that mean puttees are back in style?

[Anonymous No.12381206]

>>12381197
not back in style, but you could probably pull them off without looking like a sperglord if you are fit, tall and know how to dress and balance proportions.

[Anonymous No.12381252]

Also stop posting shitty canvas boots. if they're not japanese industrial work boots there not good

Get the same size as you are in doctor martens/solovair

Also take the leather insole out when you first get them

>>12381167
I find keeping them polished helps draw attention to them, also what other anon says
