Flaunt Wolverine 1000 mile boots after 15 years

Thumbnail

Upvotes

I purchased these Wolverine brand "1,000 Mile" boots in 2011 for about $350 US. I wore them almost daily during cooler months for a few years, and have worn them about 1x/week for the past decade. They've been resoled 2 or 3 times, and are probably due to be resoled again. I treat them with Doc Martens wonder balsam, never with dyed shoe polish (though a cobbler may have done so during resoling).

Overall I'm happy with them. The leather is soft and they remain comfortable. ✌️

If you’re on this site you may have a plethora of quality boots. You pick the scenario, zombie apocalypse bug out or rich relative last minute trip around the world and you have to pack light. Either scenario, you only get one pair of daily wear everything boots for a year. Choose….

Discussion Black Lug boot recommendations?

Post image
Upvotes

Im looking for a good black winter boot, here are the specs I would want:

8+ inch height
Lug sole
• Wide widths
Lace up
• Below $400
No steel toe or cap toe

Although they won’t be used for hard work or anything like that, I want something that will last me a long time! (Also I don’t want Jim Green because the stock boots are not quite what I’m looking for and I don’t like the wait or lack of communication with their custom boots; I already have some customs I’m waiting on lol)

Question/Help Combat work boots question

Upvotes

Howdy, everyone. So, I currently work as a landscaper, and want a really good pair of combat boots to replace my Justin's.

I have a pair of Wideway jungle boots and I like em, but they were $40 and I worry that im gonna get what I paid for. Any advice on a solid combat boot?

I had desert boots but I tore the toe up with a wood spike while cutting wood...

Flaunt Boot Deal Of The Day

Upvotes

How’s this. My daughter was at the Goodwill looking for collectible books (not a bad source if you know what you’re looking for). She picked up a pair of tall, zippered, suede, womens’ boots in dang-near-perfect condition. I gave them a quick brushing and they look new, from soles to uppers. Brand is “La Canadienne” and they are made in Canada of all places. Turns out, this is a known brand of womens’ boots and this model is found at $650 at higher-end retailers. She paid . . . $3.

Question/Help Recommendation for boots

Upvotes

What would be the best (in your opinion) pair/brand for a welder in a copper mine in Arizona. Square toe preferred cause i like the extra toe room. Waterproof and steel/alloy/composite toe required. Cost is not an issue, just looking for the best. Although some $600 and under options wouldn’t be terrible either

Question/Help Need Help Choosing My First Pair of Boots

Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm looking to buy my first pair of black boots and I'm stuck between these two:

  1. Allen Cooper Men Black Solid Leather High-Top Flat Boots – ₹1,790 +(300/- off on Myntra)
  2. Red Tape Men Round Toe Biker Boots – ₹2,298 +(300/- off on Myntra)

Both are size 7. I'm mainly looking for good build quality, comfort, durability, and something

versatile enough to wear with jeans/cargos and casual outfits.

Has anyone owned either of these brands/models?

also recommend other if any in this price range....

Boot review I took some Meermin fashion boots hiking for some reason

Post image
Upvotes

Had a trip to Iceland, and didn’t have any actual hiking boots or the budget to buy nice ones so I figured I’d use what I did have: Meermin black waxy calf boots that I’ve left mostly untouched for a year now.

I covered them in as much otterwax boot wax as I could, slipped on some heavy wool socks, and it turned out… actually okay!

A few things; these have the hidden tread on the bottom, the gusset lip and what may be a stormwelt? (I’m not an expert so if it isn’t whoops!) so I figured it might just work.

They were actually pretty comfortable for both city and outdoor wear, water RESISTANT, and had enough grip for casual hiking up and down some trails, even in rainy conditions. I strolled through some streams and waterfalls perfectly dry but will admit that standing in a lake I felt water come through at the side somewhere.

Would I recommend this? Probably not, since if you like boots and hiking you already have a much more suited pair, and if you’re buying Meermin’s more fashion-y boots it’s probably not for their ability to climb mountains.

But hey it works! If I keep hiking more I’ll look for some actual mid-range leather hiking boots

Question/Help Size 2 UK or EU 35 Safety Boots Recommendation

Upvotes

Hi all!

I am a gardener with tiny feet - Size 2 UK/EU 35 - and my work has given up on looking for boots for me.

They will pay £70 and I have to meet the difference if necessary. I believe they will do this once a year.

Boots that fit me are Size 2 Blundstones and Size 2 V12.

The V12 safety boots they provided me have fallen apart in a few months - they lost their waterproofing in a month. It could be that they are old as the EN ISO number says 2011 but please correct me if I am wrong.

They have to comply with the EN ISO number.

I am not fussy but if possible, ones without laces are preferable.

I am struggling to find a pair and would like some recommendations!

Question/Help Blundstones Died, need a comfortable next pair

Upvotes

My Blundstones went to the great cobbler in the sky. Looking for recommendations for a comfortable pair of boots for less than $350. I am down for a break in period, but would prefer if it was short.

I like chelsea boots and lace ups 6in or less in height. I wear custom orthotic inserts, so don’t like much of a heel. Want to wear them casually and to business casual workplace.

One thing to note: I’ve got small feet. Quite a few brands don’t come in my size and my feet are too wide for women’s.

Size: US 6, UK 5, EU 38

Thanks!
