Looking for some boots
On the look out for some boots and would love to get some new ideas
Currently looking at
Guidi (although some advice on what guidis people like would be appreciated!)
Our Legacy Camion
Last Conspiracy (but they never have stock)
Any other recs and opinions appreciated!
Specifically looking for something a little chunky/wonky/statementy but still versatile!

pics of stuff you like? the sea of black leather boots is so mf wide man
yeah lemme see
If you want chunky I almost push away from most guidi models and out legacy camions
chunky could be thick sole, wide silhouette, big toebox etc etc
last conspiracy is dirt cheap on grailed usually just gotta be patient
I am very sad i missed these https://www.grailed.com/listings/68298517-the-last-conspiracy-the-last-conspiracy-ernst-mat-black-boots

this is TLC's grailed page fyi, they mostly post seconds/samples but they are very lowball-able from what I hear
Yeah I got my pair for $130
from that page
wooord
Yeah guidi isnt really your vibe unless you go for an alyx collab
IMO
Maybe pl1
BV lug boots are really really clean and chunky imo, unless you want the color pop of the tire boots
the dude from hevn wearing them with some rick
yeah these are very good
^
what is your shoe size btw
I am in the 2nd hand trenches 24/7
I wear 10-10.5 in most sneakers
fr
Word
Marsell and Officine creative go cheap often on some models
or people list them way too high
no in between lmao
are they very chunky though?
marsell does make some chunk models like they kind of have a rip of the boot you just posted

I'd prefer zip btw
ye fair
Just thinking. Obviously rick might hit right what you need but hard to find
but the right chelseas (see the ones you guys posted) are def a good alternative!
also price
yeaaah lmao
bottega and balenciaga make beautiful big boots too but I dont have a band to drop on them
Keep an eye out for alyx boots too
top of budget is probably 400
pref lower
you should drop 2 bands on this pair of creepers
the only good pair out there imo
Some alyx stuff leans techy but might be your vibe
1 band :kennyno:
2 band :kennyyes:
I can work in a little techy
these were in the inspo album
wouldve bought them already but my friend has them and wears them all the time
they look so good irl
acw x converse geo forma
thoughts on bbs salomon high tops
i only know darkwear brainrot shoes sorry
they're a little too 'athletic-y'
or like techy in a functional way
how do you feel about moon boots
lol
dont love, but hard to put my finger on what it is
good price though damn
fair. I will keep you in mind while I doom scroll at night
❤️
Did you like the campers?
yeah, i did
they were just too big
Could just get another pair
Ah
was the last pair on ssense
and they were like 50% off
yeah I would never pair full retail
as I grad student, I do what I can
haha
You know now i kinda want some camper vamonos
you have imprinted on me
just for completion sake are docs off the menu
yeah, i had docs for a long while
they're good, but I dont love em
I'd get them again at 50% off. the sole is really good looking. they are suuuper light. the leather was kinda meh but maybe better when broken in
I didnt want to crease them so I didnt really walk with a full range of motion when i tried them on
yeah their materials have always put me off. But honestly I saw a beat to shit pair on someone the other day and kind of "got it"
What don’t you like about the docs so we can avoid that
the toe box looks really big (it is + sole extends further) which I like. Reminded me a bit of BV puddle boots when I had them on
im actually not entirely opposed to this
You can try it out
And return if it doesn’t work
but I just wore their lace boots for so long and they mostly have lace boots and chelseas
but a quick google search proved me wrong
best part of docs is the price fr
those are like 190 retail
what the hell lmao
I would also browse Frye boots on ebay, there's like a billion pairs and they can go for very cheap
decent leather most of the time
honestly I might grab those docs boots lmao
way cheaper than camper and the material is probably like the same quality + square toe box is a fun detail
yeah docs will last you 10 years even the plastic kind
I think the stitching really puts me off
But if it doesnt bug you
damn they're on ssense. the womens sizes are on the sale and not the mens sizes
pink tax? more like blue tax :keepincool:
the smallest inconvenience? its the system working against me
now that you settled on a pair i can suggest some really idiotic ones
like these obscur jawns https://www.grailed.com/listings/11665907-obscur-extended-sole-zip-boots?g_aidx=Listing_production&g_aqid=f02a3afaacc0b557a9715ee45bcefcf2

its also a crime these havent sold lmao
this brand is so niche tho
so seller just listed them as guidi
I might buy them...
keep looking lmao
they could be made with guidi leather but doesn't look like it
iirc polacki does custom leather orders from guidi
So may be different treatment
im gonna hold off on buying the docs until BF to see if they go on sale. you can still send me all your late night finds @dang
get the triple welt square toe soderberg joints
plus Garuda and Aidama are dropping new seasons in a few days and my wallet might be taking a beating here
same designer as obscur just different brand
sell the tabis, pick these up
and I'll piss off char for eternity
Its a bummer the alyx guidi stuff is so expensive lmao I feel like it would be perfect for what you want
like these fuckin rule
if it holds resale value, I might be convinced
i made money on my tabis :xd:
it don't
even used to used?
nobody buying soderberg
oh idk about alyx if that's what you mean
oh i meant the alyx
Im not buying those sick ass soderberg ones lmao
Most guidi stuff just sits online for like 6 months unless its an actual good deal
too cool for me 😭
(and really too slim for my big body)
would look p silly
really unsure of the guidi alyx stuff, but maybe holds value bc of the good guidi resale market. alyx i feel like is wayyyy past its prime
as long as I can find it at the lowest used prices, I usually dont have a problem reselling things at those prices again
even if I have to take 10% more off or whatever
still usually worth vs buying new
so keep an eye out dang 😗
I mean you could find docs for $30 right now at any buffalo exchange in america
except for those docs 😭
i did my time with lace up docs
I liked them, but I just hate lacing boots tbh. makes me averse to wearing them
anyways, i appreciate all the advice and banter guys 🙂
