I'm heading to Japan early next year, what are some brand of boots I should look out for? I've seen motor, wjk and Jun hashimoto.

I'm heading to Osaka, Tokyo so if anyone that's bought boots from these areas can you point me in the right direction. Cheers!

What brands make narrow fitting chukkas? Looking for a cheap pair but charks are a bit wide for my taste

Hi guys,

I'm on the fence on which of these MOTOs to get. Most of my shoes and boots are black but these brown ones are a special hand-dyed shade.

And here's what they look like with a few months wear:

More pics of those here.

I guess I'm just not sure which will be more versatile with jeans/fatigues/chinos.

Thanks so much.

These are Marsell's and they're killer but is there anything out there similar-ish for a fraction of the price? Long shot, I know.

Or even if someone could point me in the direction of a brand that might offer something like the above.

Ha, that's weird. I just bought some Rokin boots (pictured below) earlier this week. Only thing is that a tiny (and I mean tiny) strip of leather has peeled off. Never saw that happening before. I don't mind the odd mark but a little annoying to see that on a new boot. But I do like to look of those you have there, where will I find them?

Looking for a recommendation for boots. I'm looking for a pair of black, somewhat dressy, 7-8" tall lace ups. Willing to spend about $500. Quality is important. Don't want anything that looks too "work boot". Here's a photo of a some RL boots, which are close to what I want. Just think I can get better quality for less. Any suggestions?
