Looking for some new boots!

[asciwhite]

I am waiting for my new winter boots from Meindl. German engineered top quality.

 

 

Only heard good things. Might not be city dweller boots but..

Lobbens are they way to go for dry snow conditions.

For the true Gentlemen who requires both style and practicality. Hand made in the Loake factory in Northampton over an 8 week period, with layers of protective wax applied for waterproofing. Fully leather lined for non smelly feet and a fully welted Goodyear rubber sole. Yes I'm afraid they are £200.00 however you have them for life

Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Sargent (I really love these boots, perfect for the winter or the jungle)

These are my boots atm. Floris van Bommel, handmade in the Netherlands. Similar quality to Loake, which I like and own as well. Especially the 1880 series is amazing and well worth the money.

Montrail Verglas for me, they're light, warm, ultra rigid and bombproof.

Can't go wrong with classic Red Wing Iron Rangers. Although I have to admit the soles are less than practical for Alaskan winter conditions.

Just got a pair of Testa di Shuro Chelsea boots. They are very nice, and I do not even dare to wear them...

I love Clark's Bushacre 2 Beeswax Leather boots, very cheap and nice looking Chukka Boots, they age amazingly and after the leather breaks in, it is honestly one of the most comfy shoes I've owned for the value.

Oh, I forgot to mention that those are really confortable shoes. Most of the time shoes like those are not confortable to wear but this stuff looks great and is super confortable.

Not a fan of boots but red wing iron rangers in a dark brown or black are pretty damn neat

I try to keep my shoes below $1000 (yes yes yes, just like watches these are moving targets.. )

Before dropping couple of hundreds on these, check out the 'last' the shoe's built on for proper fit. Visit your nearest AD for this

 

Based on my personal experience:

 

1. Carmina FTW - Fortunate to have some shells from them (two of 'em boots) and I can't stop buying em. Tried them on a trip to the EU once--built like a tank.

2. Alden a close second. Fortunate to have 4 pairs of their shells.

3. Allen Edmonds -- Fortunate to have 2 pairs of these

 

I tried Edward Green too, they look wonderful, but their RTW lasts are too narrow for me duck feet.

Gaziano and Girling feels overpriced to me for what you get, but some folks like it.

Some people swear by Vass, but I just didn't get a chance to try them out IRL.

Philippe Zorzetto is my choice !
