@MrChinabear 4 месяца назад

Interestingly enough, I own a pair of the Solovair’s HORWEEN leather derby boots, which appear to be exactly the same as the Goral, except for the outsole which resembles the more traditional Dr Martens outsole but the material is different from the regular Solovair Derby’s . The outsole’s are what Solovair’s website refer to as their premium comfort sole. They only made these boots for a short period of time and they were charging around $279 for the boots.

@MrChinabear 4 месяца назад

I own both. The Doc Martens HORWEEN Boots have a much thinner Cavalier leather and the sole is exactly the same as the out soles on the regular docs where as the Solovair’s are they completely different pair of boots.. the leather from HORWEEN is a much thicker chrome tan leather. Also the leather lining and the leather insert seems to be exactly the same as the ones found on the Goral’s the only difference seems to be the outsoles. Although I have no proof I have come to the conclusion that the Solovair’s upper may have been made by Goral. There is definitely a more than coincidental resemblance between those two boots

I remember commenting this (or similar) subject before. When I was wearing my Docs as a teen in the early 70's it was to fit in with my peers. To be part of a crowd, to be fashionable. At that time I think the Made In England version was the only one available. They fit well, were comfy and lasted long enough for us to pose in with our mates. These Goral boots a great for what they are, but it's like your mum making you a pair of Levi's. They're just not the same.

Reminds me of Vimes's Boot Theory. "The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. ... A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet."

@TheRebelLion13 4 месяца назад

I remember owning 3 pairs of Docs in the late 90s, one which included the 1460 Oiled Leather version, and all three were made by the Solovair factory in the UK, and each of those pairs lasted at least 5 years of heavy use. Compared to the ones that were made in Thailand(the first batches of "outsourced" Docs that came here to the Philippines were made in their "new" Thailand factory at that time), there's definitely no comparison at all. From the sole material to the leather, you can really see the quality has gone down a lot. But in their marketing, they presented it as a "lighter", more "comfortable for long wear" version of the "new" Dr. Marten's Had i known things would do downhill for Doc Marten's, i would've kept all those 3 pairs(ended up handing them down to my cousins), given that those would've been the last relics(and would most likely be collector's items) of a bygone golden era of Solovair-made Doc Marten's.

@Bob_Weir617 3 месяца назад

I get that they are high quality BUT you could buy 2 pairs of MIE docs. They needed to be at the same price point as the MIE docs to hit the mark IMO. Love all your videos and advice as I wear moc toe boots to work every day for the past 18 yrs. Thorogood (5 pairs)is my go too.

@augustusnalley8745 4 месяца назад

The typical Doc Martens buyer was more interested in style than anything else. Quality was a secondary concern, although it was appreciated by those of us who wore the **** out of them. These don't really capture that style. I like these boots, but I'm a "boot guy", so quality boots interest me. In a way, Docs were my gateway drug to the world of higher quality boots. This boot is of a higher quality than Docs ever were. I've owned half a dozen pairs of Docs, all purchased from 1977-1998, so I'm fan of what they used to be. This boot is for a bit more sophisticated & discerning clientele, IMO. Good vid, as usual, thanks for the heads up.

@wompa70 4 месяца назад

Undoubtedly these are better boots than the most expensive $260 Dr. Martens. Or even the equivalent $250 Solovair derby (that is also built better than the Doc.) But the Goral sure doesn't look as good to me. I'd get the Solivar over the other two. Even if they were close to the same price. But honestly, I wouldn't get any of these. I'd get Jim Green's Baobab or Nuzmaan in Houston green with the frog grip sole.

I agree that these boots are so much better than Docs, but I gotta say I get far more than six months out of mine. Of course, they aren't my every day shoe. I wear them fairly often, but I also have sneakers and such so I'm sure that contributes. That being said, keeping them clean, conditioned, and brushed, my Docs are on their 8th year. And folks still think theyre relatively new! If I could afford the Goral's I'd go for it. I plan on replacing my Docs with Solovairs when mine finally die.

If you're wearing through Docs or Solovairs in 6 months or a year, then a different style of boots is probably better for your use. If you're like most people and wear them casually alongside a bunch of other footwear, they might still be a great option that lasts you a long time. If you're buying Docs because of how Docs look, you're not buying these. It's a completely different piece of footwear, so I hardly see how it is even a comparison to Docs.

So you still get a really good idea of what they will be. I will say the biggest subjective part is how comfortable they are, to which he says he finds them comfortable but those things are always subjective. He may not think a certain pair of boots are comfortable and many others can find them crazy comfortable and vice versa. He’s still showing all the insides etc. any review or any video, from anyone should be used as a helpful guide and nothing more and remember many things are subjective.

Great job with this one balancing commitment to sponsor and really clear explanation of why you think they are worth the price. This feels much less like an add and more like an honest review 👍

Still feels like an ad than a review

450$ for a pair of strobal stitch/blake boots seems hefty. Better look at something like the Heschung Hetre which at least looks somewhat like the doc martens and are norwegian welted(although more expensive)

The last thing I wanted was to see this video as I already have 3 other pairs of Goral footwear.

Packer boots need some love

@kraftzion 4 месяца назад

The quality is there. They need some type of accent though. Yellow stitching or make the rubber side a different color

@graemegourley7616 4 месяца назад

Hmm. Like the looks except for that really high sidewall. If that were half as tall I'd buy some for sure. I love that crisp squared edge in the toe cap.

@jdmac44 3 месяца назад

They look like Doc Martens that grew up... but I want the rebel kids Docs! lol I might get a pair anyway, they're cool.

@R1tu4lz 2 месяца назад

I don’t doubt these are better quality, but I would hope so seeing as they are going for $607 here in Canada. Also, their sizes start at size 6UK and are only available for men. So for women’s sizes there is nothing available.

I'm waiting for you to cut a few more of European brands boots, would love to see what you think about something like Hanwag Sepp!

@Iambatman1939 4 месяца назад

Great video, and really informative. I love the Gorals, but don’t love the price. I like the look of the Docs but agree that they’re junk these days. I think I’d go with Solovairs as they’re ‘relatively’ decent boots at about half the price of the Gorals.

@janbrittenson210 4 месяца назад

The main weakness I think is the insole; if you swamp those boots that cardboard and cork is going to disintegrate. Certainly fine for inclement weather urban use, just be mindful where you put your feet.

I reckon a good alternative to a doc martin is a mackinlays boot called the beaumont in black. Its stitchdown with a leather lasting board and good leather

You guys should do a video on Adidas stan smith lux's. They're full leather and even have a leather liner which is rare in main brand sneakers.

@brianmclaffin 3 месяца назад

Those look really nice. I think the next pair of shoes I'm going to get will be Gorals. Leaning towards their sneakers, but their boots are looking nice.

@driver8sk 4 месяца назад

Maybe it's just me, but don't think a $450 Frankenstein boot is going to run Doc's out of business.

@matthewcaughey8898 4 месяца назад

No but a lot of us who bought docs moved onto something else. I do miss a lot of the features of docs but they were made so badly. I ended up going to Jim green for my boot needs. For the price of 270 I can have Jim Green build me just about anything I want within reason for about 270 including shipping from South Africa ( cause South Africa is economically distressed they can import products and not have to pay the import fees )

Please take a look at the Waldviertler shoes made by GEA. Handmade fair production in Austria with focus on wide bed shoes that are healthy for your feet. Very high build quality. Basically lasts a lifetime, and you can get every part replaced fairly cheap. My dad has had one of his pair for almost 50 years and they still hold up very well.

@yassver 3 месяца назад

Depends why youre getting the shoe. Docs for fashion, these for long lasting and function perhaps

@simonmandrakejones 4 месяца назад

Not sure about them. I have a few pairs of Solivairs that I love and for the same price as these boots I could buy some decent Meermin boots with a veg-tan insole and stacked leather heels. That they use ChromexceI is a huge plus. I would want to see a review of the wear (like what Nick does at Stridewise) before I would consider investing in these.

Hey Wes, there's a good brand of boots from the Philippines called Willie's Handmade Boots. I'd like to see them cut in half to see if it is on par with American-made boots.

Wait a second- no speed lace eyelets at top. You have to waste time loosening laces every time to get them on and off. Deal killer!

@hughphillips1427 4 месяца назад

Loake do an ‘air cushioned sole’ boot called ‘Niro’. These boots are made in England and are very comfortable, the leather is so much better than both DM’s and Solovair.

@luisclavero8886 4 месяца назад

I don't know if you've made a series of doc Martin killers but if you haven't, would like to see that.

@patriciodelavega3586 3 месяца назад

The missing point here is that, many people (me included) buy Docs because we like how they look... I mean, this Gorals are cool, but they don't look anything near to the punk look that Docs brings People gets mad when you buy something that makes you feel cool, but (as I see it) that's one of the points of buying something in the first place... To feel good about it! (Even when we know that Docs have decreased the quality big time)

You need to cut open some nike foamposites! I have a pair and they are very comfortable for how sturdy and inflexible they are and i feel like they are made alot like the jordan 12s due to both having the carbon plate shank.
