I had a pair of Robert Wayne boots that I liked but they started falling apart after a couple of wearings. The construction was cheap. This time I decided to invest a bit more ($170) so I went with these Steve Maddens, which have two configurations:





They're very nicely made.

From last season I also have walkable boots for the day that are holding up fine:

I'm digging those Maddens. Here's what I sport. Not as rugged but good for everything except trekking around in snow. In that case I have some hiking style ones.

I rock the G star raw boots. Little more heavy duty for the brutal winters up in Canada. Going on my 3rd winter with them and they are holding up nicely. I actually got them given to me from a buddy brand new.

Nice topic. I recently got Levis Sahara's, because they fit the harder look I'm going for. They were also only $70, and make me 1 1/2" taller:


They're a bitch to get on and off, and I know they won't last as long as the $130+ ones. So I'm on the market for new ones, that say "industrial/alternative" (think Burning Man) without saying "biker."

I can see Roosh rocking these bad boys in Europe while sipping coffee at the outdoor cafes.

I like Aldo. I know it's on the cheap low end of boots but despite being a canadian company they're Italian made. They have some good styles. I've got a pair similar to these, although they're getting pretty worn and time to replace.

[Duke Castile]

I really like the style^

They're cheap but what about the quality/durability?

[Prufrock]

I've been thinking about picking up a pair of these boots and I'm wondering what the players here think about them. They're a bit pricey (350 bucks), but I have other shoes from this company and they're very high quality, better than 99% of what you typically see on a day-to-day basis. I live in California and I'm not too worried about snow or ice.

I really like this style too. Any idea where I can find some like this? Had a look on Aldo's website and nothing really came up.

Can't go wrong with the Red Wing boots this winter.

I love wearing big bulky boots. Problem is that I drive a stick-shift car.
I need lighter and more flexible footwear like Mr Cameltoe posted above
in order to drive my car.

Clarks Desert Boots. Got them in beeswax, and suede. Suede is not great for winter though.

[Parlay44]

Clarks are dope. I also recommend anything by Johnston and Murphy. Super comfortable.

I get them pretty cheap through Amazon Prime.

Doc Marten Industrial Boots (Steel toe)

I wear these almost all the time. Both work and away.

[Drazen]

not a fan of boots, but this is what I rock.

I need a pair of the beeswax. I really like how they look after some wear. Love my Matte Blacks:

I like chukkas too. Target's got some nice ones right now.

@Fisto and Nudge

I got mine from Buffalo Exchange. It's a high end used clothing store in L.A. (we have tons of em here, Aardvarks, Crossroads, Wasteland, etc) . They basically cherry pick places like Goodwill or have people bring in their designer used clothing that's in new/almost new condition and then sell them at like 80% off retail.

Those Aldos have been extremely durable, I've basically put them through hell. I've had them for several years and gotten serious wear in nightclubs and bars. They were stiff and a little uncomfortable when I first got them but the leather is totally softened and fits my feet like a glove now. It's just the outside that's gotten scuffed up but even that contributes to a nice "weathered" look that's in style in the city.

Enigma, where did you get those navy chukkas? Look quality.

[Galaxy]

Clarks desert boots are a classic, im gonna pick me up a pair of Desert Malis soon

[Vicious]

When it comes to boots I'm all about utility. In my part of the world it's not really a choice.

These would be considered the fashionable choice, I've got a pair:


These are what you have to get out in the darkest of winter:
