I dig these and I have been looking for something similar. Georgia boot company makes something like this but the heel is joined to the rest of the sole, making the side profile look a little weird. They also have the Georgia giant which looks a bit better. I still haven't decided on anything yet. All I know is I want something sort of chunky like my black Timberlands but different.

Dunno, the boots are good quality but be careful, they will fuck up your feet for the first 2 weeks. Take a lot of bandages.

those are red wing iron rangers, used to be 300 a pop recently went up 320-330, thorogoods, thursday, and maybe chippewa? (cant remember for sure) as well as some others if you're looking for the look.

I have that exact boot that I've worn for about 6 years. I have very few complaints other than; the older ones have slick cork soles that are a living hell in snow/ice. They've recently started coming with treaded soles. And they aren't the most comfortable if you're gonna be on your feet many hours a day if you're feet aren't conditioned for it.

[Anonymous No.14158387]

>>14158369
Yea, that chunky vibram sole look from the side doesn't look office appropriate in my mind. With the 875's the thing I'd imagine you gotta look out for is to make sure you scrub down the soles every so often so they don't look stained and nasty, but assuming they aren't, that feels like the safer bet

[Anonymous No.14158429]

they've got like 4 or 5 variations in color on what's basically the same boot, poke around their web page. I usually stay away from any browns darker than saddle colored cause most of the pants I wear are darker, and I prefer the contrast

[Anonymous No.14158504]

>>14153491
They look good if you lace them up like you would another boot. When people wear them sloppy style it looks retarded.

Been wearing a pair every day for the season, and they are very comfy and seem durable. The nubuck holds up just fine in the snow as well, with some care every month or so.

There's Blundstone (pic), they're kinda like a halfway between work and casual. Never owned a pair but I'm told they're decent. My goat is RM Williams, they're a bit more on the formal side and will set you back a fair bit though.

the equivalent of ebay in my country. they're 70s vintage though they're barely worn at all (i can still read the sizing in the sole).

I recently purchased a pair of solovair boots and I can tell right out of the box the leather will hold up longer than my old Chinese docs I bought years ago. They're also noticeably softer out of the box and it's making the break in process a lot easier. Fit is as expected. Inspected them thoroughly after getting them due to the alleged QC issues I've heard about and everything was perfect.
