these, so comfy
best shoes I ever bought

Love boots !

My Ann Ds aged so good, still look beautiful.

nice guidis desu

I've had a pair of The Last Conspiracy ankle boots for about two years now. I'm running out of ideas on how to wear them, do you guys have any ankle boots inspo ?

Anyone have any experience with Frye? Might cop pic related. I’ve been looking for a harness boot that isn’t ysl for some time. Problem I keep coming across is that no where really sticky my boot size because I’m a 5’7 Manlet. Pic related is a women’s shoe which I don’t really have a problem with. This will be my first pair of boots.

Repost from last thread.

NOT ADVERTISING, JUST SHOWING FELLAS MY BOOTS

>>12807979
Wear them with jeans, thats what i did, I wear dark blue jeans and they looked nice/casual

>>12807979

I live in a tropical zone. How hot would be for my feets to wear one of those leather?

can you recommend winter boots that are not expensive around 150 euros

yikes, creepy school shooter feeling

>>12808188
What school shooter ever wore chelseas?

>>12808188
Lol. You can wear your children's sneakers for all i care, grandma

I know Palladiums catch a lot of flac here, but in Canada you need a boot that's gunna make it through snow, ice and be able to fend of salt. This is my fifth year with these guys and they're fantastic.

>>12808453
Get some Danners
Lug sole has such a good grip, I even keep a pair in my car

>>12808453
But wait for a sale. Few years ago they did a father's day sale and last year they did one on Columbus day, I think

Copt

>>12808080
how can you be lagging this far behind

>>12807826
wolverine 1k miles or chippewa general service?

Are these any martens good? I kinda like the design

>>12808762

>>12808518
damn those are really sick
do you guys know any cheaper alternative to these? love how slim they are

I´mplanning to buy my first pair of higher boots. I really like the design on these Saint Laurent combat boots, but i would like to experiment with higher boots first before spending so much money. Does anyone know a less pricey alternative?

can anyone id these for me pls?

>>12808457
they have some great stuff; huge variety of styles. Thanks for the tip.

>>12807979
I personally see no point in getting nice 10" high boots if you aren't going to tuck/blouse them. I don't care how edgy or LARP it looks, its clean, comfy and practical. Just embrace the edgy nature and design of the boots and tone it down by matching it with some not so edgy clothes.

>>12807979
>>12808902
Example of what I mean.

>>12808902
tall boots look great if you roll your pants tho
really the only excuse to do so too

>>12807869
no
some things just can't be pulled off as a manlet

>>12808911
Its tricky not to tip the balance between just a guy wearing some nice military boots and being a stormfag, schoolshooter or LARPer.

But at the end of the day, don't be this guy. Completely defeats the point in wearing some beautiful brown Corcorans. Pretty much just a bulky clown dress shoes wearing them like that. That's not to say you have to show all 10 inches, as you said, you can roll/blouse them to reveal 6-7 if that's all you feel like showing. I personally just tuck because its more comfy.

How do Rick Owens boots fit? Should I go up half-one size than my normal sneaker/shoe size?

>>12808932
they fit big
so size down one size
I'm 42 in pretty much all sneakers and 41 rick boots fit me nice, could probably go for 40 1/2 as well

>>12808042
w2c pants?
>>12808910
post more pls. im a white sneaker fag, but given the entry price of these, it's tempting.

cop or naah?

>>12808674
how far?

>>12808893
apocalyptic metrocore

>>12807826
Cop or not?

>>12808961
I'd pass on these. The zippers don't look great.

>>12807979
While we're on the subject. Has anyone bought grade 2 meme boots? They don't have grade one in my size anymore.

>>12808902
>>12808910
is it a bad idea to tuck them if I'm on the shorter side, like 5'9

>>12807830
w2c?

Cop? Yes or no? Anyone got any inspo for these?

>>12809850
jesus no. it's not 2008.

>>12809856
2008 jokes aside along with american heritage being a meme are these /fa/ boots? I'm in a flyover state so anything /fa/ from 08' will still look fresh in 17 here...sadly

>>12809209
I've got the grade 2's. Not in terrible shape at all. Leather is way softer than I wanted, but definitely wearable.

>>12809881
American heritage pieces can always be /fa/ when paired correctly with other items

How should i clean the inside of meme boots?

>>12809881
not in that color theyre not

>>12807979
wow these are cheap, would definitely by if I was less creepy looking

>>12809850
Cop

>>12809916
This guy is right

>>12809939
Don't listen to this guy, roughout is cool. They'll darken over time as they get worn in

>>12809466
Tbh just don't buy tall boots if you're short and really concerned, they'll shorten your legs visually. If you're concerned about your height you should always be going for pants that stop right at the top of your shoes so the lines of the pants are nice and straight all the way up and down.

However if you're lanky, you might be able to make combat boots work with black skinny jeans tucked in because you can kinda get the same unbroken line effect

>>12809983
don't most boots usually give you like a inch in height? or at least make a persons silhouette taller?

>>12809999
They can give you actual physical height but if you cuff your pants or otherwise show a little more of the boot it'll make your legs look shorter because the cuff breaks up the height of your legs. It's kinda the same as how wearing a horizontally striped shirt can make your torso look shorter and wider.

>>12809850
If you're hesitant about the meme status try chippewa general service utility boots. slightly less bulky, similar quality, 100 USD cheaper, and haven't been meme'd into oblivion (yet).

>>12808816
memeboots if you are in europe, german or austrian. otherwise, what are you afraid of? those are not really that high.

>>12809466
Yes. If you try to rock taller boots, you might wanna shorten them by only rolling/blousing up to the say, 7 inch mark.

>>12809983
This exactly. I'm tall and thin with long legs so tall boots help "shorten" my limbs a little.

>>12810106
There's a reason they haven't been memed: their quality is shitty. They look like ass after only months.

>>12809473
My trusted friend, the cobbler, sold them to me.

>>12810327
wrinkling is inevitable for any leather shoe except shell. chips definitely aren't the worst, it's just that their owners are usually new to the hobby and go crazy with conditioner/snoseal

unless you live in <40 F weather boots are autism

>>12810407
>unless you live in <40 F weather boots are autism
No. A quality pair of leather boots will make a man feel like a million bucks.
Good boots offer day long comfort, if cared for will look better with age and can have soles replaced. Boots are also extremely versatile, making smart-casual outfits more relaxed and regular t-shirt and jeans 'fits less adolescent.
To top it off boots also make you appear taller and more confident.

>>12810314
hey this is the other anon with the brown cocorans, so far I been using black polish on wrinkles, looking alright so far, may I also ask what other polish/items you use to make them look that way?

Burgundy boots anyone?

>>12810407
Not really. I live in Brazil and mid-top boots with little padding are absolutely fine to wear in place of shoes. I even wear Timbs sometimes when it rains or at night.

6''+ boots or hiking boots would be kinda autistic if you wear them all the time but still.

>>12809008
do you have different angles?
what are they btw

>>12807979
can someone post some examples of this type of boot being used in a colorful fit, one that isnt monotone or all black?

>>12810327
those look pretty dope senpai. You're on crack.

>>12808902
>>12808910
hey thats me

>>12811373
Those were nice shots dude. Saved to my aesthetic folder.

>>12808954
I would definitely recommend expanding and trying other types of shoes instead of just sneaks, even if its not boots.

>>12810624
Unfortunately those aren't mine and I believe the back story to those in the pic specifically were some naturally aged but very maintained ones some lucky fag found at a garage sale.

Other then wearing the shit out of them, messaging the leather/bending it to give it more wrinkles, not really. Black and different shades of brown are the only easy cheap way to give it a premature patina I know of unless you really want to invest into getting them like that.

In that case:

https://www.reddit.com/r/malefashionadvice/comments/20x68m/i_aged_a_pair_of_wwii_paratrooper_boots_in_order/

This guy tried to make his look vintage, came out alright but I've seen better. Definitely not as good as a naturally aged pair.

Just keep wearing them, get more wrinkles, scratches and scrapes and then filling that up with black or any color you desire. Don't be afraid to beat them up, they are tough boots that can take it.

>>12810236
i´m just not sure if i can style them without looking to fashy

>>12811392
thanks man sort of wish i still had them, suppose i can still buy another pair

>>12807830
wearing fucking drill boot what am I even seeing

>>12811479
What happened to them?

Any recommendations for lightweight waterproof boots?

>>12810342
Owning boots is a hobby now...shit...

>>12811977
get really into it and it approaches watches-tier costs

where can i grip some of these

Need a quick opinion on these.

>>12812090
50% USMC boots
50% space-cuck boots

>>12808824
They look like Chippewa service boots. Not exactly the same but very similar

>>12812138
Tfw just ordered them.

>>12812163
they're somehow really nice desu

How do I wear these in a casual/business casual way?

I love them but I'm not sure how to wear them; I feel they're a bit more complicated than chelseas.

>>12810327
>kids these days want their boots to look factory fresh forever

FUCKING WHY

>>12810407
>t. so cal hipster

Thoughts on hikers for casual wear?

>>12812447
will always look like shit

>>12812447
Only if you go full comfy work/hikercore

Bonus points if you're Japanese

Opinions?

>>12812577
Are you a security guard?

>>12812580
No, but I would wear it with clothes that had been worked in. Wouldn't go with anything really slick and clean.

>>12807979
Name?

>>12807979
>he thinks emos wear combat boots

>>12808080
when was this a trend? 2008? I actually kind of still like those boots even though I never wear them anymore.

They're pretty cool, but they take a while to start looking beaten up, which is what makes them look awesome.

These sort of came in and went out of fashion over here in Oz. I think chelsea boots replaced them for dudes and girls have whatever it is they have now. Buckley ones or something. Only exception is people seem to still wear Docs on occasion, but the non-name brand combat boots are done now.

I got lots of compliments from girls when I wore them, guys generally hated them and my army mates actually really really disliked them (could be them disliking civvies appropriating army clothing).

>>12812783
???

>>12808034
the fuck do you intend to do with hobnailed boots

Spirals inspo pls.

>>12812577

After 2 hours in the store I landed on these

Cannot wait to break them in. Have blisters after one day in them.

>>12808518
>Sidezips
>Laces

Pick one or the other

Help, what do you think when girl wear chelsea boots? I want to buy it, and it price 150$ made from genuine leather. Worth it?

>>12812986
depends on her fit, it might be anywhere between "hey those are nice shoes" and "fucking hell how disgusting"

help
i brough some sweet nice ass boot leather
butt it is tight in my toes!
all my other shoes are the same size, god damn

>>12812090
>>12812138
this but in a good way

>>12813120
They might stretch with time

>>12812982
Why? That way you don’t have to unlace your boots every time you put them on

>>12812313
Suede is casual so just throw some slim denim over them.

>>12811516
changed up my style and sold them

>>12813381
This. I also really like the looks too
