Long time Doc Martens wearer. . . but
"Long time Doc Martens wearer. . . but never more. These Solovair boots are a different level. Everything about them is more solid and premium feeling. Best boots I've ever owned. Gorgeous!"
Our Goodyear welted footwear is a little larger than most other brands. We would therefore recommend you either purchase a pair of our cushioned socks with our footwear in your regular size, as they offer about 1/2 a size extra fitting, or you go 1/2 a size smaller than you typically wear.

Solovair Classic Collection
Due to the nature of Greasy leather a layer of Dubbin may be required to achieve the pictured look.
Applying a suede protectant before wearing your footwear for the first time will help guard the surface. A suede brush can be used to remove dust and restore the nap after each use. Suede and Nubuck finishes should be kept away from large amounts of water due to its porous quality.
FREE shipping on all footwear orders, with a 30 day return and exchange policy.
In the unfortunate event that you need to return your order, head over to our Returns Center. Simply enter your order number, email address and select the items that you wish to return. You will then have the option of a refund or exchange to another size or style.
All import duties/taxes are included in the prices shown.
Greasy leather needs to be fed with Dubbin wax, oil or grease for nourishment. Apply sparingly to avoid creating a dull appearance.

"Good boots but they don’t come with insoles and they don’t disclose that in the description. Definitely buy insoles along side these."
"I ordered these late last week and they arrived today - what an excellent pair of boots, holy shit. They fit me well at the size that I had expected them to, they feel very thick and durable all-around, and the colored laces look magnificent on them. Fantastic boots for kicking fascists, would order again, 11/10."
"Always had a different brand of boots but needed a change and these are great. They are very well made. Thick leather, nice soles. Ordered by the sizing guide they provided and they are true to size, however, if you like a little more wiggle room like I prefer. Size up. I will be sizing up on my next pair. Can’t wait until I get these broken in to my liking!"
"Great fit right away, I'm usually a 8-9 in size and a 8. 5 fit perfectly! They were very stiff and uncomfortable when walking down stairs at first but after walking them in for a week or two it's not that noticeable any more, changing how I laced them helped a lot too."
"Great shoe but the sole started splitting not long after buying"
"I've been eyeing these boots for a while and I'm so glad I finally pulled the trigger. The craftsmanship is immediately obvious — Goodyear welt construction, substantial leather, solid zip hardware — everything about them communicates that these were built to last decades, not seasons. The side zip is a genuine game changer. It's seamlessly integrated and makes getting them on and off effortless without sacrificing any of the structure or look. A note on the greasy leather: apply some dubbin before your first wear and you'll be rewarded with that gorgeous deep, rich black finish. Small effort, big payoff. The honest part: the break-in is real. Thick socks help, and it's absolutely worth pushing through — once they've softened up, the comfort is excellent. Also, these run generously, so go a half size down, especially if you're between sizes. If you're on the fence, get off it. These are boots you'll be wearing in ten years."
"Style, check. Quality, check. Comfort check. This boot is everything I look for in footwear. Side note. I’m looking forward to you getting the leather backpack in stock."
"These boots were for my granddaughter and she absolutely loves them. I hope they give her reliable wear for many years."
"Mein Sohn hat sie sich gewünscht. Mit Blasen an den Fersen hart er sie tapfer eingelaufen. Wir haben Fersenpolster eingeklebt, dann war gut. Sie wirken sehr hochwertig und scheinen gut und robust verarbeitet zu sein. Ich hoffe sie halten lange!"
