Idk if dr martens is like the essentials brand for chunky black boots here
:cryingsalute:
looks at my clinch
Like I could see the visual differences in Dr martens products
But then it's just kind of like idk what I'm looking at
at 200 there is no reason to not just buy docs
so aside from that
also like 70% of your inspo is just 1460s lol
great
ok wait
like wtf is the difference between 1460 and 1460 mono and blahblah

those look nice
if you've never tried on docs before do so, the platform can take a little effort to get used to
(highly recommend their insoles as well)
i think the docs from my inspo are the platform ones
very edgy me thinks
platform ones fuck
classic alt/improvement to docs are solovairs but they're a hair over budget at full price
solovairs are slightly mroe expensive for basically, slightly better construction and you get to be insufferable
so true
and they still aren't resolable
they also don't have a platform so yeet em
are new rocks 2 edgy/overdesigned for what you're going for
i mean im not lying so much of his inspo is 1460s
i don't see any reason to not get them for him
not disagreeing
just providing alts!
valid
relatively tame new rocks in budget w a platform https://www.newrock.com/en/boot-black-tower-with-laces-m-newmili083-s21
holy shit if you have small feet we could match https://www.ssense.com/en-us/men/product/adieu/black-type-165-boots/14015561
^ these look hot as hell imo
toga option slightly over budget but hot https://www.ssense.com/en-us/men/product/toga-virilis/black-lace-up-boots/15402851
but yeah 1460s might be the play
i saw a 1460 2 inch platform
shit is huge
damn
thank u for my thrice weekly reminder that i want a pair of platform mary janes btw
Monos just have black plastic stitching instead of yellow. Also the toe box is a tiny bit slimmer. In real life tho no one can tell the tiny difference on silhouette
Sprinting into the thread to suggest Solovairs as the best bang for the buck boot. All sorts of chunky styles and finishes
vintage milsurp boots can also be pretty chunky and good quality
true, milsurp flight or combat boots
Beware, I judge mono wearers very harshly.
I’m kidding but I’ve always felt that the pointed toe of the Monos always looked kinda off
