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.

The Black Greasy 8 Eye Derby Boot from Solovair's Classic Collection is praised for its excellent craftsmanship, high-quality leather, and fantastic customer service. The boots are also noted for their great look, comfortable fit, and fast shipping. However, some customers have mixed opinions about the sizing.

"Excellent shoes: comfortable, sturdy, and full of style. I recently traveled to London and bought a pair of Green Gaucho 8 Eye Derby boots in Camden; I liked the brand so much that I didn’t hesitate to buy my second pair. I’m very happy with my purchase."
"Out of the Box Comfort and Incredible Quality I couldn’t be happier with my Solovair 8-Eye Derby Boots in Gaucho Crazy Horse leather. The leather has a fantastic, rugged texture that already looks full of character and is noticeably softer than traditional smooth leather, making the break-in period incredibly easy. The build quality is top-tier, and that classic suspension sole provides amazing all-day comfort. You can really feel the heritage and craftsmanship that goes into these. Easily a full five stars—highly recommended if you want a premium boot that looks great and is built to last!"
"I only wear these boots. I have only worn these boots. I have brown and black dress shoes for special occasions, but other than that, I wear these. Work, play, camping, hiking, travel, everything. They take about a week to break in and last about five years before the soles are worn. Best boots on the planet."
"My feet are wide across the base of the toes but I have very narrow heels, and these just aren’t made for this foot shape. I started with my usual size, which fitted great around the toes but were huge around the heels. Went down half a size, the heel was better but my toes were pinched and the boot was also fractionally too short. Absolutely gutted."
"It took a few tries to get the right size, which was my fault, not Solovair’s. Once that was resolved, the pair I bought (Oxblood Hi-shine 8-hole Derby Boots) fit like a glove, look awesome, and are really well made. The break-in period was relatively short and painless, too. I love the ethos of this company and their products, and am really happy to have an alternative to buying shoes and boots from that other well-known British shoe brand."
"This was a Fathers Day gift! My dad loved the material and the way it felt on his feet! He loved original and well crafted shoes/boots. He absolutely loves them!! Thank you!"
"Love the look and feel of the boot. Fair warning, I have wide feet and needed to purchase a half-size up for the toe to be comfortable (normally wear men size 5, purchased men size 5. 5). Leather was a little stiff when I first put them on, but that's to be expected for brand new boots. Can't wait to wear them in!"
"I saw these amazing boots online, and only took a week to arrive in Australia. The quality is exceptional, and my usual shoe size was just perfect. I can't wait to wear them all winter long. Very happy with this purchase."
"Bought a pair of there for my birthday but they didn’t last long at all due to faulty stitch and this company literally responded back quickly and sent me free replacement boots of the same kind and those actually lasted a lot longer. Still got em"
"I'm very happy with my purchase! What made it even better was the fantastic customer service I received. I ordered a pair that was too large and the team was very patient and worked with me to ensure I got the right fit. I ended up sizing down. Much lighter than I expected them to be, which makes wearing them even better."
