Our Goodyear welted footwear is a little larger than most other brands. We would therefore recommend you either purchase a pair of our cushioned socks with our footwear in your regular size, as they offer about 1/2 a size extra fitting, or you go 1/2 a size smaller than you typically wear.

Solovair Classic Collection
Due to the nature of Greasy leather a layer of Dubbin may be required to achieve the pictured look.
Applying a suede protectant before wearing your footwear for the first time will help guard the surface. A suede brush can be used to remove dust and restore the nap after each use. Suede and Nubuck finishes should be kept away from large amounts of water due to its porous quality.
FREE shipping on all footwear orders, with a 30 day return and exchange policy.
In the unfortunate event that you need to return your order, head over to our Returns Center. Simply enter your order number, email address and select the items that you wish to return. You will then have the option of a refund or exchange to another size or style.
All import duties/taxes are included in the prices shown.
Greasy leather needs to be fed with Dubbin wax, oil or grease for nourishment. Apply sparingly to avoid creating a dull appearance.

"I absolutely love these boots. They are a great build quality. I originally bought these to replace my Dr. Martens of 10 years for going to concerts. These feel like they will outlast those. These are a unique look that blows away anything else I've encountered. They are perfect if you are looking for a pair of strong, great quality boost that stand out in a crowd."
"I only wear these boots. I have only worn these boots. I have brown and black dress shoes for special occasions, but other than that, I wear these. Work, play, camping, hiking, travel, everything. They take about a week to break in and last about five years before the soles are worn. Best boots on the planet."
"Love the look and feel of the boot. Fair warning, I have wide feet and needed to purchase a half-size up for the toe to be comfortable (normally wear men size 5, purchased men size 5. 5). Leather was a little stiff when I first put them on, but that's to be expected for brand new boots. Can't wait to wear them in!"
"I saw these amazing boots online, and only took a week to arrive in Australia. The quality is exceptional, and my usual shoe size was just perfect. I can't wait to wear them all winter long. Very happy with this purchase."
"I'm very happy with my purchase! What made it even better was the fantastic customer service I received. I ordered a pair that was too large and the team was very patient and worked with me to ensure I got the right fit. I ended up sizing down. Much lighter than I expected them to be, which makes wearing them even better."
"Loving my new Solovairs. They look and feel amazing - sharp and shiny! I usually buy size 10 but with some other boots I feel a slight slip so I took advantage of the half-sizes and 9. 5 is perfect in this instance. They are stiff to start with but I am enjoying the feeling of breaking them in to fit my feet. Fast delivery and a great price for a true British-made icon."
"These boots were my treat to myself. I am highly delighted with them. I'm a 9, but 8. 5 are perfect. Materials are quality. I dare say therell be some breaking in, but so far minimal. Feel super comfortable to walk in and already I feel a difference in correcting a minor hip displacement. Really looking forward to getting beyond that new feel and procuring that lived in look and feel. A product I'll be happy to grow into and enjoy for many years to come. Although, if I'm a 9 and my fit is 8. 5, does feel like a Spinal Tap moment! 😂"
"I’ve been wearing these boots almost daily for about a month now, and I’m really impressed. I usually wear a 43 1/3 EU in Adidas and have wide feet, so sizing can be tricky—but a UK 9 fits me perfectly. From day one, they were comfortable, and surprisingly, I didn’t get any blisters at all during the break-in period. Overall, a very solid pair of boots: well-made, comfortable, and true to size (even for wider feet)."
"I’d give it 5 stars for a quality made boot. The 4 stars is for the sizing. I’m a true size 8 in womens and this boot is sort of like an 8. 5. I put in an insole and it definitely feels better. I’ve been wearing them for two weeks straight and they feel good , no blisters or anything like that. The leather is definitely a better quality than their competitor."
"The best boots so far! I wear it almost everyday now. And the customer services is really helpful regarding size and help me changing my order."
