Solovair's customer service is AMAZING. Bought a pair of Solovair dealer boots last year. It was half a size too big. Return & exchange was a breeze. Then the one of the new boots developed an issue where the right heel was making a whoosh sound whenever I step on it. By that time it was already past the return period. Contacted Solovair asking if they have any suggestions on how to silence the sound. They offered to send another pair and told me to keep the other pair! They'll be my go-to brand for boots for life!

I was literally a Dr. Marten fanboy, I own something like 6 pairs of docs and just 2 months ago, got myself Made in England boots from Indonesia. I tried everything to break them and even after 2 months, my feet were hurting like crazy. Today, I visited Noah's in NYC, saw the Solovair 3 eye Gibson shoe in green, tried them on and they instantly fit so well, it just felt like magic. I visited the Doc store in Soho and just gave away my Docs to those guys. I am sorry but I am never gonna buy Docs ever in my life now :( I am actually now gonna visit Northampton and buy more Solovair. Blue pills for me :)

Wonderful and insightful review!!!! I wear Solovair, GripFast, and Dr Martens!!!! I’ve got a few older pairs of Dr Martens made by Solovair and honestly even though they are decades old, I think that’s when the best quality was available 1970’s/1980’s!!!! I feel a lot of nostalgia for DM’s, but Solovair I think has the edge with the shank these days.

Really good review. The resole is a real game changer to longevity and especially making the boots tougher. So the issues you said are true like the the stitching that connects to the tongue and the upper aperently thats due to the fact that there is no gusset on the boots while the docs do which is an issue if you want the tongue to hold well properly which I have seen bad reviews about that with the solovairs(though I will recommend to take care of your boots so it may not happen for a while longer) but some people prefer that since it makes taking of the boot more easier but it’s somewhat a shame, the second is the back of the heel yeah they’ve been know for that issue due to the stiffness of the leather but I solved that by using those orthopedic ankle straps you get at the local pharmacy and it really helps and the last part is the leather I will admit it can be bulky and annoying but you have to bare it since it’s better quality and to get it way softer you can use the that balsam or their dubbing, I do straight lace it to keep it secure and it really meads in well but I wouldn’t recommend that lace method you used because it has been know to make the boot quite loose and you want to keep it secure to get it in the proper shape but you do you. And for what what you pay for the solovairs it’s really fair and honest and a good budget boot for the average consumer unlike the MIE docs but I understand why most people will get the Asian docs and all the hype but with solovairs you have the original methods and longevity so it matters to what the people want.

I'm a OG Dr. Martens fan from the 90s. Bought my first pair 0f 1460s that were not made in England, absolutely not happy with them. The feel and even the look don't even compare to my vintage ones. So I saw a few videos on Solovairs, including this one, and decided to try the blue pill. Ordered my first pair of derbies and man. They look, feel, and wear like my old ones did. Now I'm a Solovair fan.

@K4KAMARA First off I'm not a small person. Im 6,5 and wear a size 13. Sometimes i requires a half size or a wide depending on the boot. The solovair gives me the extra room without have to do anything. Don't get me wrong, I love the classic 1460s but not the Asian market ones. I returned the ones I had because the fit and finish were not what I remembered from my og docs. So in return I purchased a pair of Made in England's. The fit was superior, and the finish was classic Docs. Now how they will hold up, only time will tell. But with that being said, I feel like my solovairs are a better everyday boot, and my 1460s are more when I'm going out on the town. The solovair just seems like they can take my everyday abuse that I put on my footwear. And i don't know about you, but I like y docs to stay crisp for as long as possible. Keep up the great videos. I've really been enjoying them.

By the way Ive been on a binge of your videos and just wanna say the quality of your videos and editing is really good quality! I went with getting a pair of Jadons in the end. I looked for the solovair equivalent and man, as comfortable as everyone says it is(which im sure is true) I didnt like the look of it at all sadly. Call me shallow or superficial, but I really love the classic DM's look! A Question; so after watching your video and Rose Anvils, the purpose of the shank is for arch support and structure...since you have a pair of jadons too, with such a thick platform, do you think a shank would be necessary? The platform seems harder to bend and probably doesnt sag as much as the classic 1460's i think. I also liked that you pointed out DM's have got a bigger fanbase, which also means more complaints hahaha. I think its not really fair to brand everything made in Asia as bad. It's thanks to it being made in Asia I finally am able to get my dream DM's. p.s for arch support, as someone with flatfeet, arch support padding does wonders! makes any shoe comfortable! cheaply available too!

I had Doc Martens back in the late 90s. Tough boots, but one particular pair killed my feet. I bought a pair of Solovair Derbys in brown gaucho leather right before the pandemic. Like putting on an old pair of driving gloves, they fit so well. I wear them more often than sneakers because they give a lot of support and comfort. You just don't see shoe companies these days take the extra effort to construct their soles in a true Goodyear welt like Solovair does. A lot of American brands have butchered their good name by cutting quality, and passing off cheaply made Chinese glued construction junk at top quality prices.

Solovair! The biggest difference is in the quality of the leather and the soles (they are resoleable!). Solovair boots are thicker and the leather is of a much higher quality (tighter grain structure), according to Rose Anvils testing. They cut both boots in half and showed that internal components of the Solovair midsole have much better structure with a shank; the outsole is better welded and is more wear resistant with a more aggressive lugs. Even that glossy coating of Solovair is better and is more "high shine" while the Docs look more like a "medium shine" in comparison. Solovair are worth extra money in every way. Solovair having replacement soles easily available is what made me get mine. So they'll last way longer than Docs ever will. I don't imagine I'll buy Docs again.

Equilibrated review, I noticed there is a lot of hate around this brand. Just one point: Dr Martend can be resoled like Solovair. Also if you want a boots made of Horween or Steads leather Dr.Martens offers them sometimes, Solovair does not. I also agree that they should offer half size, for me 9 is too tight and 10 too roomy.

I bought my 1st DocMartens just last Tuesday March14, a 1460 smooth leather. 3 days later while walking in the rainy UK-streets, it got leaked and damped--toes got wet. Like my £40 (about $50) Caterpillar steel-toe took 3 years to start leaking/seeping water in it, this DM's took only 3 days after purchase, so I returned it. So now, March 18, I ordered a Solovair crazy horse 6-eye, online. 👍👍 I need some boots here in the UK, not "want", but need coz of...UK trek and all that, and DocMartens failed me on day-3.

I probably should not have said that they can’t be resoled.. it is possible but is it really worth it. You do know that the upper of the boots are heat sewn to the soles with flames? It is possible but most cobblers don’t think it’s worth the work of resoling docs especially knowing that it will cost almost the same amount as it is to get a new pair. Also some RU-vidr are mostly doing it for fun

Docs can be resoled THEORETICALLY. But in REALITY 99% of all ordinary cobblers will say “WE DON'T RESOLE DOCS”, because it’s too hard without a heat welding machine. So it’s gonna cost you more to rebuild the whole boot than buy a brand new pair.

Did the job, on my feet realizing my feet are starting to hurt and took a few minutes to sit down and just chat and update my notes. After the job I walked back and by the time I was in the office my heels were having a lot of impact pain. After another hour or so it calmed right down and the boots being good material my feet were nice and toasty and it felt so nice just sitting at my desk with a lovely warmth enveloping my feet. Another 4 or 5 of those kind of jobs and they should be broken in properly. I am looking forward to winter to see how they retain heat.

Solovair are Goodyear welted which is the reason why they are resoleable... not because of glue. Higher end boots are Goodyear welted. I would not say the heated glue method Docs use is superior to a Goodyear welt either.

@@jorge10928 Docs are Goodyear welted, too. It refers to the sole being sewn into the upper. The final sole attachment is different, but it is a Goodyear welt.

I wore Docs in the 90's and knew first hand their quality. Now my latest pair....Not worth the money! Both heel liners completely fell apart within 3 months, the tongue on the left boot tore in half by month 4 and and I'm about 9 months in right now and I've got a nickel sized hole in the top leather of my right boot. TRASH in my opinion. I wear them 4-5 days a week for work and I should have gotten AT LEAST a year solid worth of wear. SMH.

@@Fodaydontplay I was thinking Solovair but to be honest, I don't see a lot of chatter about how they hold up over time, just that they "should" last longer since their better made. So I dunno! :) I'm still using my busted ass Docs at work, haha.
