I’ve recently purchased the 6 eye astronaut greasy from solovair and absolutely love them. I don’t own a whole lot of boots, so my review isn’t that grounded, but so far so good. Gets used around 3 times a week, not a lot of hiking since I have a desk job. No break in needed. I don’t have the optional sole but they are still comfy. If u order the solovairs buy a half size down, a lot of the product reviews will also mention this. It’s also convenient to buy their dubbin wax, if u go for the greasy; or standard leather care for the high shines.

Old school runescape gnome child. Don’t think there is more meaning to it then just that they are dressed as gnomes lol
