Alden boots (US made), classic Indy boot, or any of their cap toe boots. Go shell cordovan leather if you wanna splurge ($700+). Viberg (canadian made) Service boots in the 2030 last (lasts are what determine sizing and shoe profile). These options aren't cheap but are built to be handed down to your kids with proper care and resoling. Truman Boot Co. (US made) are a cheaper alternative to Viberg, using aping their style very very closely at around $150-$200 less than Viberg.
Highly recommend New Rock boots. Mine have lasted over 10 years without a single issue, and they look great. This is one of their more subdued, casual pairs, but you can get some really cool ones if you like
I can't tell if you're serious or not.
Lol.What the hell are these?Highly recommend New Rock boots. Mine have lasted over 10 years without a single issue, and they look great. This is one of their more subdued, casual pairs, but you can get some really cool ones if you like
Get a pair of Timbs. They come in a variety of colors to match all styles of dress. And they last for ages.
Probably the best boots you can purchase:

My advice: look off-site for Fryes. Amazon regularly has sales.

Depends on what you're going for and what your budget is. I'm in my mid 30s so take my suggestions with a grain of salt.
My favorite mid range boots are Crockett and Jones and for high end, I splurged on a pair of Edward Green Galways. Those were my end game footwear.
For the most part, you want a rubber sole, most mid to high end boots that aren't dress boots will have Dainite soles. They are long lasting.
Get fitted properly at a retail location and see what lasts work for your feet.
I can highly recommend C&J Conistons, Islay (love the high lacing on these), and one of my personal favorites that has been discontinued, the Galway II.

buncha people givin me shit for linking to some goth boots. we exist, fuckers. goddamn. your "stylish" boots are a laugh riot if you want to look like someone who has given up
Brother I don't wanna look like a clown. We live in a society
could try nike's sfb too
I wore these when I was in the military and loved the hell out of them.
You caught me my dude, I've given up on my dreams of being in a KISS cover band
Red Wing Iron Rangers in black. Best boots I have ever owned for anything outside of backpacking. I wear the shit out of them and they still kick ass.
I totally get the love for the style and worn look of Clark Desert Boots but they just don't fit me, I hate the wide ankle, I need support, you just can't tie them close. Actually baffles me why people get on with them. I went a size down and it was still worthless around the ankle.
you can get "goth" looking boots without coming out like a caricature
I'm not a super boot person or whatever, but the price-to-quality ratio of my Thursday Vanguard boots is great.
Don't recommend that shit for other people, though. They look ridiculous unless you're Cipher Peon or you.
Your boots OP:
Yo those are dope! Can you provide a link to purchase?
For general use I find these Timb Euro hikers super comfortable.
They also had a design your own boot thing that I was tempted to treat myself with.

I always forget that as a Texan, "boots" conjures a different image for us than the rest of the country lol. I was gonna recommend some Tony Lamas or Ariats, then I saw the direction the topic went.
I don't think those are for sale anymore. I just posted the pic because the OP's pic was broken.
They do have other boots on the designer's site:
https://palladiumboots.com/
And they have one that's similar:
they seem fairly decent but it's stupid as hell they press their logo into the leather. kills all chance i'd ever try them out.
Honestly, some of these boots posted look like the bulky orthopaedic footwear that 80-year olds with fucked up feet are forced to wear.
There are some hideous boots in this thread.
It's fine as long as you're happy wearing them, buy damn man, it's sad. I don't even want to imagine the outfits that go with some of these boots.

Thanks for the link! Man I hope I can find a pair, they are really nice. I'll check out the website, thanks again!
Why even bother when you don't know what you're talking about?
I know this is the internet, but come on.
Any links or names?Those boots are an eye sore.
Here are some good boots;
I made a thread like this back on GAF and it seemed like everyone recommend red wing iron Rangers. Ended up buying a pair and they are sexy as fuck. Only issue with them is they look really narrow on my feet. Try them on in store and buy off Amazon. I got mine for 220. 80 bucks off the regular store price. Also get a full size smaller then you regulary wear.
Chelsea boots look awesome but I'm not sure I could pull them off. They look great for women's styles
I'll second this. Chelsea boots are the only kind I really like to wear. You can just as easily dress them up with a suit as you can dress them down with jeans and a nice hoodie.

Thanks. I'm looking everything over.
Red wings seem good but they're not at all casual.
Well, those ones above look good.
I think I'll check out chelseas or just stick with palladiums.
