Anyone heard of the brand Camper? This is the woodie boot. I like the look curious if it will hold up.

I kinda dig them. I wish they were a full height boot vs a chukka, but these do offer plenty of ankle coverage. I like them more than the Mr. Bs for ALDO that are available here (Although I still want the blues), for sure.

They are not traditionally constructed shoes or anything...and are instead glued together like all other sneakers. I ordered a pair once and the quality felt nice...better than other companies that make similar shoes...although they didn't fit me (and either didn't come in half sizes or they were out of stock) so I can't speak for long term quality.
Of course this boot looks a lot more traditionally constructed (with a separately attached sole, etc...not built like a sneaker) so it may suffer due to not being their standard sort of shoe. For $216 I would probably pass...but since that price is imported and includes duties and stuff...I wouldn't be surprised if those shoes were not a bad deal in their native market.

I know John Vavartos has a pair that I really like, but haven't seen them for under 600+. which is too much for me. Do any of you guys have any suggestions? I was thinking about those Dayton service boots, but haven't been able to find a place to buy them. Any help is much appreciated.
