SÖDERBERG boots: yay or nay?

Hey all! I'm eyeing a pair of leather boots from SÖDERBERG. Before I invest, I'm curious about their durability and overall quality. Anyone with firsthand experience? Would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks in advance.

I have to say this would be my first pair of luxury leather boots. They have a price point of 799€....

Just because he modeled for the brand doesn't mean they're good for dancing This question feels weirdly like an ad but if you go to berghain most people will be wearing trainers

Do you think they look cool/unique enough to spend that on them and can you afford it?

I really think they look very unique and love the style. But I never spent so much in any kind of shoes. I'm seriously considering spending the money, though. I also wouldn't necessarily wear them for dancing.

Soderberg is an odd brand being almost entirely dtc with extremely little retail presence even in berlin. I'd be surprised if anyone here had experience with them or if they had much of a secondhand market at all. There's really no place you can go to try these on before buying which is quite a gamble at that price. I have a friend who has purchased soderberg boots before and I remember the sizing being a bit odd so only buy if the company or a stockist offers free returns. Ah welp lucentment says they're mto and ineligible for returns so

I'm checking order policy directly on soderberg site and they have a quite restrictive return policy, they allow returns within 7 days after reception. But one has to pay the return costs. I'll check if they have physical store in Berlin.

They don't, the only stockist I found was orimono and they just had a few shirts

I see, I'll email them to confirm returns are allowed for the boots, since you mentioned they are mto. Thank you! Do you know any other brind with similar style that might be a bit easier to buy? As in, stockist with generous return policy? Or should I ask this in a separate question?

Brands with a similar style might include Peter Do, Heliot Emil, Alyx, Eytys, Haider Ackermann, Rick Owens, Margiela, CCP, and Guidi/MA+/A1923/Marsell/TheLastConspiracy to some extent These recs are strictly based on footwear btw I can't speak to their various stockists' return policies tho

That's super helpful, thank you @Salem ! I'll do some resarch on those.
