I'm currently looking for new (or 2nd hand) boots to get and was wondering whether anyone here had experience with Solovair in particular or could recommend other ones available in the EU.
I've had a few pairs of Solovair boots. Good quality and durable. My only complaint is it takes a while to work them in. I absolutely love their leather insoles. I'd buy another pair without much consideration, when I need my next pair.
I've easily walked a couple 100 miles in the Seattle weather with the 8 holes. They have stood up really well. I wear the 3 holes mostly these days. I don't bus commute and walk as much.
I have had them for a long time. I'd think 10 years but actually its probably 15+ years now. I wore them 99% of the time for a lot of those years
when I asked my wife how many miles she thinks I walked in them, she said thousands of miles. I walked a lot for work and just because it was easier then the bus or parking a car while living in Downtown Seattle
