yung boot swagger

I really like these. I'm gonna cop some next month.

Honestly if I was going to buy black work boots I would just get Docs

[Anonymous No.7127304]

>>7127296
i wouldnt, i like their shoes tho

[Anonymous No.7127314]

>>7127257
these look borderline mfa, especially if you don't wear them with skinny jeans.

[Anonymous No.7127332]

>>7127314
I don't really care too much if they are MFA. They are Redwing 9016s. My friend has a pair of them and they look fantastic even if they've been weathered a bunch.

I'm open to a better suggestion, don't get me wrong, but I think the beckman is a great boot.

Also I don't want to drop the money on Wolverines.

[Anonymous No.7127337]

>>7127314
it's because they are new. boots look better the more they distress.

[Anonymous No.7127343]

>>7127337
Is it wrong that I actually really like the look of new boots though? I don't know, maybe I just like how clean and nice the leather looks.

[Anonymous No.7127345]

>>7127332
the katahdin from L.L. Bean are real good boots and only 200

[Anonymous No.7127362]

>>7127345
I was originally going to get the katahdin, but it says the sole is cork and rubber. I am fine with just a rubber sole, but since these are going to be my go-to boots for when it is a bit wet outside (not like a hike or anything, just walking around campus) I think I have to pass up on them.

Which is a shame, because I really like the look of them.

[Anonymous No.7127367]

>>7127343
nothing is wrong in your personal tastes lol. but from an art perspective a worn boot has more character and style. imo.

[Anonymous No.7127387]

>>7127362

i'm still a little unknowledgeable about boots and stuff but is it a bad idea to purchase a boot with a cork/rubber sole for rainy/winter seasons?

[Anonymous No.7127384]

more info on these?

what's wrong with cork in the sole?

[Anonymous No.7127394]

>>7127387
I own a pair, I live in Chicago, it's been raining, haven't slipped so far, shoes holding up well.

[Anonymous No.7127396]

>>7127387
From my understanding, cork is absolutely terrible for walking around in wet conditions. It is a lot more slippery than most other types of soles.
Rubber is for the most part fine. It doesn't improve your grip, but it definitely doesn't hurt your grip like cork does.

is the quality of LL bean for their boots worth for the price?

[Anonymous No.7127418]

thanks mang.

However I did just look into what some people were saying about the llbean boots, and a lot of people as well as the anon above say they had some good luck with the llbeans.

For the price, they really are good boots regardless.

[Anonymous No.7127447]

Really I am torn between the LL bean and the Beckman. I like both quite frankly.

Anybody have some nice fits with the llbean? I don't like how it is portrayed on their website, color seems a little off.

[Anonymous No.7127453]

>>7127401
yes amazing. I love them. they are not light like those cheaply made doc Martin boots. awesome leather, they break in easily, never got blisters from them. I would highly suggest using their boot guard on them as it turns them a dark espresso color and they break in easier. I'm answering questions if you have any

[Anonymous No.7127471]

this is what i'd wear if i could find them. anyone know where to cop mono docs?

[Anonymous No.7127480]

>>7127401
It's not the greatest quality boot in the world. Anybody who says they're "ZOMG SO INCREDIBLE CRAFTSMANSHIP #WURKWHERE" has never had a more expensive boot.

They're great midrange boots that don't kill the budget of a highschool/college student, and they look good. No stupid zippers or gimmicky patches of fabric or shit.
What really makes the difference is that they're beans so you can call them and say "X is falling apart, give me a new pair" and they will. I'm about to do it with my pair in a week

would you recommend the kennebec chukka? $99 seems like a good deal for a chukka boot. looking at some of the other boots right now and not all of them seem like my kind of thing but would you recommend the Katahdin over other boots in that price range?

>>7127480

would it be worth it to purchase the Katahdin or just save up for a pair of red wing 9011's?

[Anonymous No.7127511]

after how long can you still get them replaced? is it lifetime warranty?

[Anonymous No.7127599]

>>7127511
yeah lifetime, as long as the product is still made. If they stopped making the boot and ran out of stock they would probably offer the nearest equivalent as a replacement.

[Anonymous No.7127623]

>>7127599
thats actually amazing, the boot is bound to fall apart after a long long time so do you send them the old one and you get a new one? can you stilll get it replaced if if has been resoled?

[Anonymous No.7127696]

figure i'll post here rather than start a new thread. does this look any good? i feel like maybe the jeans are too skinny (they're 501's) and the boots look weird when paired with them. but i have the clown shoe problem no matter what i wear.

[Anonymous No.7127694]

>>7127447
dude, if you have the cash for Beckmans its no contest.

The beans are decently practical, but they look like ass, and use second- or third-rate leather.

[Anonymous No.7127712]

>>7127696

[Anonymous No.7127726]

>>7127623
Idk about resoling, but for returning all you do is call them and say "I have X and Y is falling apart and I'd like to exchange them"

They take a credit/debit card to pay for shipping (unless you're a memeber of one of their executive club things) and will ship out the new stuff asap. You have to send the old ones back in the box the new ones came in with a prepaid label, otherwise they'll charge your card for a new pair.
I called to return a backpack in high school and made the call at 2:30 am Eastern expecting a foreigner to pick up but it was some tired sounding American dude in their headquarters working the graveyard shift. Shot the shit with him for 20 minutes. Hope he didn't get fired haha

don't wear 501s (I don't know what you want exactly, so I can't suggest alternatives)
get slimmer profile boots

[Anonymous No.7127753]

11.5. like i said there isn't much i can wear that will look better. i just want a pair of jeans under 70 bucks preferably with button fly. do you think apache lacers would look better? i hate sneakers.

raw denim inseem is 34 usually and you get it tailored or just roll it up

[Anonymous No.7127849]

>>7127843
so i can't wash these things? i might buy a pair but its a lot of money man. thats what i usually pay for 2 pair.

[Anonymous No.7127864]

>>7127849
which ones specifically are you looking at? link please

i just bought a pair of naked and famous weird guys and they cost me about 150$ which is obviously a lot of money for a college kid but in raw denim its liek pocket change. i like them, i suggest you buy a pair if you can afford it. never wash them and wear them often and you will see how comfertable they are. get a pair that is either skin tight or like a tapered/slim fit

nah. i mean the 501s are too tight imo. and isn't slimfit what those are anyway?

[Anonymous No.7127890]

>>7127882
raw denim will stretch to fit you better. mine were pretty tight and now are much looser after only a few weeks

[Anonymous No.7127894]

>>7127880
they're labeled selvedge.

http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=16918336#

those are the ones i'd get if i pulled the trigger. but then i'm down to one pair of jeans and i can't get new boots.

>501s
>too tight

jesus christ, what sort of bumfuck hole do you live in? They make you look like a skeleton draped in garbage bags.
And yes, raws will stretch quite a bit, and probably be rigid enough to give your twiggy legs some more definition.

easy, man. i thought bigger would hide how skinny my legs were but your saying i should excentuate it? that seems counterintuitive. plus i don't want dick bulge which i already get in 501's
