Beater Boots
Need some new bad weather beater boots. Before I go for bean boots, I'm wondering what alternatives are out there that might fit my wardrobe better. Main criteria are waterproof/resistant and cheap (<$200).

I mean
Blun
I hate how bluns look ngl
O
i also don't think they fit my wardrobe any better than bean boots either
but ya, idk they don't do it for me
most boots from merrel will do the trick but most are also ugly
Docs idk
Just get black blunnies
Hunter boots are cool too
I’m literally wearing dark gray rn and I think you’d look fine in them
Bottega Puddle Boots
Diemme Roccia Vet
Balenciaga Rubber Trooper
Xtratuf 15" legacy
Barbour Bede
Plasticana Kapitana
If you want a good American classic, you can't beat the bean boot
They're quite cheap for what you get imo
@Smiles I feel like bean boots don’t really fit your vibe either
What about loggers or just generally a workboot of some kind
Chippewa?
im not a workwear fan is the issue
realized its really not it for me
Hmmm, then I’ll second going bean boot
It’s hard to beat em for the cost of that’s the vibe you’re going for
ya thats kinda why im leaning towards them
tbh i have a bunch of llbean money anyway
so its kinda dumb to not get them but im worried i won't wear em
but i can prob do some ivy fits with them ez
If you want to deviate, the diemme roccia vet with the rubber bottoms are cool too
and fit a similar niche
although maybe they're learning too close to workwear
Get the rubber mocs
So cool
also way different price bracket but the Bottega tire boots
alright stop with the out of price bracket range
who the fuck uses $1000 designer boots as beaters
oh sorry I missed the beater bit
Also came across these Stussy x Moonstar midtops

Maybe some GTX runners/mids
All my boots are beaters
Not a boot…but:

I have the tor summits they’re ok
are these purchasable? Salehi bembury croc duck boots

i went bean boots in the end
not ideal but I had some money at ll bean anyway
so it kinda was a no brainer i think
I’ve got a pair and they’re pretty solid. I use them mostly as rain/snow boots
Just be careful because the soles don’t have a ton of grip
why do these look like ai
huh they kinda do eh
