SOLOVAIR (England 11 Eyelet Fashion Steel Toe Leather Boots. Made In England.

These boots arrived pretty fast and I was really happy with how nice and heavy they felt, just like my old DM boots in the 1990s. Got lots of positive comments about the fab colour too. They didn't take too long to break in and are now very comfy. Downside is that the orange coating starts to crack very quickly, not too noticeable along crease marks but if you do scuff them on the toe it is pretty noticeable as the white shows through. I reckon that the sizing comes up a bit wider than the current Chinese manufactured DMs, if that is what you are used too. The far superior quality of Solovair v Dr Martens is the the most huge diffference. I wish I could take the narrower fit of DMs along with the superior Solovair soles. I'd love to try the Solovair cherry red 14 hole boots. All in all, recommend these orange Solovair but do be careful of the cracking.
