How to lace steel-toed Solovair Boots

[Metal4ever63]

how did u fixed the other side of lace to stay in place?

[DR00G13]

@Metal4ever63: Does this help you anyway? -> /watch?v=UCbfZOIGBXo Cheers!

[Metal4ever63]

@DR00G13 yeah it helped thanks :D

[DR00G13]

@Metal4ever63: Sounds fine, mate. Which boots do you wear at the time?

[amerRSFC]

I wish I can wear white ones :( Stupid nazis.

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Forget the nazi scum for one moment and wear which color you want. I don't give shit what people think about me.^^

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

IT's not what people think of me. It's just I don't want a cop to beat me up, or a civilian wants fight me you know?

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Hmm, I see. When you're not strong enough just to be what you pretend to be, then you should wear black ones. To be skinhead means to run the risk of getting into anger. On the other side, I see no need to provoke...^^

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

Well not to be bragging. I am a good boxer. I get into fights with boneheads sometimes. I never got beat up by them. I just don't want any trouble :/.

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Yeah, I see. My opinion!

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Yeah, really. I read the last postings again, I wrote rubbish. I never wanted to harm you, I ever agreed with you not to want into fights, and I know what it means to be skinhead and to be confronted with stupid guys on a all skinheads are nazis trip. So sorry if I sounded kind of aggressive or something. Cheers mate, stay SHARP!

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

Thanks you to!

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: ;o) By the way, could you image to make a little boot video for me? Cheers!

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

I should try. My hands are fucked up I am writing all of this with my small finger :P

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Whoa, what happened?

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

My hands froze really bad XP

Doctor put them in a cast for some odd reason xD

I'll be like this for two weeks. They froze on my birthday :/ Feb.15 :'(

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Ouch, that sounds not funny. By the way, happy birthday ;oP How old are you now? I'd like to watch your shoe gear shown off on thick carpets, toewl, etc - that look pretty cool. Hope your hand are ok again soon, Cheers!

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

I'm 17 :)

I will I like showing them off XD I am a bit to modest/proud to admit that though :D

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Kinda proud? Why?

[amerRSFC]

@DR00G13

Hehe I don't know really :D

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: However ;oP I'll be lucky to watch...^^

[DR00G13]

@amerRSFC: Btw, I wore them yesterday - on a Skarface gig ;oP

[circasurvive04]

most gorg boots everrrr! 

[DR00G13]

@circasurvive04: Gorg boots, what do you mean?

[circasurvive04]

@DR00G13 like the boots are gorgeous haha theyre nice

[DR00G13]

@circasurvive04: Ah, I see.^^ You're right. Greetings to CA by the way. We've been in Toronto in spring. ;o)

[y9pema]

Oi!



[DR00G13]

@y9pema: Oi! Oi!, mate!

[RattleheadAnthony]

excuse me sir i have a question... im looking to buy boots but i dont know what size i should get. should i buy them 1 size larger than my regular size? im 19 and use a size 12 and i was thinking of buying them size 13 just in case my feet grow some more... your thoughts?

[DR00G13]

@RattleheadAnthony: Sir? Ahem...^^ I won't recommend a larger size! I wear US 12 in most trainers (Nike, Adidas, New Balance...) and US 11...12 in Boots. DMs are UK 10/US 11. These Solovairs are UK 11/US 12 but they're a little too big.

[RattleheadAnthony]

@DR00G13 so if im a US 12 i should get DMs UK 11? but what if my foot grows? i heard they stop growing in your 20's or so... was this the case for you?

[DR00G13]

@RattleheadAnthony: Phew... I dunno. DMs run bigger that trainers normally do in the same size. Maybe they'll be kinda big and will fit beser after your feet growed. But I'm not sure of course. Best were you check the right size in a local store...

[RattleheadAnthony]

@DR00G13 you know what... im just going to risk it and buy them in UK 11 since my feet have not grown much or if anything in the past year. thanks for the advice! :D

[DR00G13]

@RattleheadAnthony: No prob, mate. I think this would be the right decision. Please don't forget to post them on Youtube. By the way, which shoes o you wear now?

[RattleheadAnthony]

@DR00G13 haha to do that i need a video camera! what do you mean by which shoes?

[DR00G13]

@RattleheadAnthony: Hmm, what about a webcam, a cellphone or something like that? I meant which kind of shoegear you use to wear. And which brands maybe...^^

[bAKwoodZ354]

@RattleheadAnthony im a us 12 and my docs are 10 uk made in england ones.

[mcxznbv]

How do you like them? my best friend is looking at some oxblood 11i's, and do you like them/would reccomend them?

[DR00G13]

@mcxznbv: The tongues of mine are plastic, but I'd recommend them. Once broken in, they're comfy, and they look nice, too. :o) I hope to see them when he got his pair.^^ What about you?

[mcxznbv]

@DR00G13 We both wear 14i Black Dr. Martens. shorter (and oxblood) boots are a damn sight sharper. I'm looking some Mikkel Rude's for my next pair... The DM's are really nice, but you have to care for them ALOT.

[DR00G13]

@mcxznbv: I don't know them. I'd recommend Solovairs, too, but I guess I have to care as much as DMs... What about a little vid of your current boots (best on a batch of carpets or some soft stuff)?

[mcxznbv]

@DR00G13 I'll upload a video right now.

[DR00G13]

@mcxznbv: Hey, that would be cool ;o)

[Darre555]

i have same boots ! btw nice vid :D

[DR00G13]

@Darre555: Nive decision. When will you show them on Youtube (on a thick blanket)?^^ Cheeeeeers!!!

[ligne3]

You are a Droog :D

[DR00G13]

@ligne3: Umm... Righty right ;o)

[ligne3]

@ligne3 lol

[DR00G13]

@ligne3: Well... Just cheers!

[Vannie47]

yeah sis. lol cheers 

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: aem'kei, sis ;o)

[Vannie47]

kool dude ill try to get a vid in a soon as i can

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: Sounds nice, bro. Cheers!

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: Or better: sis? Cheers again!

[Vannie47]

sounds awesome. so im assuming to make a vid of my docs?

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: Yeah, that would be awesome. And other you'd like to show off... Greetz!

[Vannie47]

i have black 14 eye steel toe docs. when i lace them the laces go across juss similar lookin like that but the inside is diff, its hard to explain lol ..like u skip on eye nd go across then the second lace on the other side goes into the skipped eye nd pull lol. nd the club sounds kool

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: Sounds like the classical ladder lacing; I guess I know what you mean. Most boots boys seem to lace their boots in this way... Now, what do you think about a boot and/or shoe review on feet and on a soft blanket resp. a batch of soft stuff?

[Vannie47]

that looks so much quicker than how i lace mine lol love the vid :D

[DR00G13]

@Vannie47: Umm... How do you lace yours? And which boots do you use to wear? What about joining DR00G13's Shoe Show Club?

[necronominate]

that's a killer way to lace..but i still don't know how you did that!

[DR00G13]

@necronominate: He he, mate ;o) Maybe this vid can help you: youtube [dot] com/watch?v=UCbfZOIGBXo

[necronominate]

@DR00G13 danke

[1971rr]

Just bought a pair of these 11 eye Solovair's.They are very comfortable and are just the right height-14 and 20's are too tall.I've blacked out the bright yellow stitching with boot polish-they look awesome!!

[DR00G13]

@1971rr: I agree, 14ers and 20ers are to high for me, too. The yellow stitching is encapsulated here, but most of my Martens' stitches are black-coloured by me. What about showing yours?

[DR00G13]

@eragorn009: Nice decision, dude. What aboutshowing them in a vid?

[DR00G13]

What about some photos?

Your steel toed para troopers sound really great, I#d like to see them...

Cheers!

[DR00G13]

I'm not sure, but maybe I heard of Demonia. But what is HH? Not Helly Hansen???

I wonder if you could make a special video of your boots?

[DR00G13]

Yeah, they're really smart. Which shoes do you wear?

[xTCxDelTaco]

these re nice but i prefer Docs!

[DR00G13]

I see... I must say I still don't know which is better.

[818TZDAVO]

@DR00G13, docs are comfortable and last for hours. get steel toes it'll hurt when you bash someone. =)

[euskaldanak]

yeah i will do it on a thick blanket mate oi oi haha

[DR00G13]

Nice, mate ;o)

[euskaldanak]

nothing better than some boots and oi music also good to kick teeth out with too.

[DR00G13]

You're so right, bro. Nice profile by the way; I totally agree! The man withe the German sub title looks like Roddy Moreno, am I rite?

[euskaldanak]

thanks man. Yeah it is Roddy Moreno hes my hero fighting nazi scum haha I just bought some doc marten shoes with huge teeth on them.

[DR00G13]

These words are the reason why I wanted to add you as friend ;o)

lol, that sounds funny... What about makin a vid of them?

[euskaldanak]

yeah i will make a video of them as soon as I get a camera haha

[DR00G13]

Great!

Would you do it like me in "DR00G13's Shoe Show Club"? It looks much cooler on a thick blanket...

Cheers!

[atkm2891]

also...are the US 10 actually US 11 with Solovairs? Asking cause i kinda screwed up with my first DMs by getting them about an inch too big...

[atkm2891]

solovair are 11 eye as opposed to DM's 10 eye right? Does this mean they are also higher(on the leg), or are the holes just closer together?

[DR00G13]

DMs and Solovairs have nearly the same height. The size of Martens and Solovairs is given in UK inch. UK 10 = US 11.

[xs1ner]

how heavy are these? i have these but they arent steel toe and i am worried they steel toe might weigh the boot down alot

[DR00G13]

Don't worry, they're not too heavy but really comfy - even as the steel-toed model. Don't you own any steel-toe boots?

Cheers!

[xs1ner]

@DR00G13 no i dont

if i buy them they will be my first set of steel toed

[jimihendrix1967]

@DR00G13

How much do they cost?

[DR00G13]

Dunno... I bought them worn (but in nearly mint condition) on eBay.

[jimihendrix1967]

Nice boots though.

[DR00G13]

@jimihendrix1967

Thx, mate. Which shoes do you wear atm?

[jimihendrix1967]

@DR00G13

I don't have these kind of boots. I wear timberland right now, dark yellow. But i want to buy doc martens. Solovairs are not sold in here i guess. My family is against those boots they say it's funny.....They're against skinheads cause they don't know nothing about them. I'm gettin really pissed.

[DR00G13]

Rapper :oP

No, I really like Timbs. I'd like to watch them in a vid ;o) Would you do that?

How old are you btw?

Most ppl don't know what skinheads are... Just don't care about them. That's one of the things that make you a skinhead. Unless you're a nazi fag, it's ok to be a skinhead. I remember the wars I had with my parents...^^

Cheers!

[jimihendrix1967]

LOL.

i'm 22. I don't think that i can make a video about my boots. But i appreciate yours. I also agree with you about the nazi thing. Oh they're against of every little thing about skinheads but i don't mind. I'll make my hair cut in the febuary. It'd be funny to cut all your hair.

[DR00G13]

He he, why not? I would like it.

Fine to read that you'll your hair cut. (Skinhead, get ya hair cut! - Hippie, get ya head cut *lol*) I need to see you after that!

[DR00G13]

@DR00G13: I'd like to swap the word fag for scum by the way. Imho it's not wise to use a term millions say to discriminate people. Something I wanted to let you know.^^ Cheers!

[DR00G13]

Okay, that would be a goos choice. Imho Dr Martens are even better. Which other shoes do you wear?

[xs1ner]

@DR00G13 I only wear mid top vans aside from my boots haha

[DR00G13]

Ok ok, that's ok. However, I'd like to watch a vid of them on a thick blanket, what do you think?

[foamy1graff]

they look like docs without the yellow stiching

[DR00G13]

Righty righty right ;o)

[comedybenj]

i have a pair of 14 eyelet burgundy rub off solovair boots and a pair of grinders king black and a pair of doctor martens 14 eyelet black and a pair of new rock boots 727

[DR00G13]

Yeah, that sounds good (I guess I watched your Solovairs in one of your videos).

I wonder if you could show off all your boots again while you're wearing them on a blankie like I did with my Martens? It looks so cool when their soles sink in under the full weight...

[DerBesteJohnny]

sag mal, wie lange braucht ein paar Docs eigentlich um so weich zu werden dass man sie so einfach zuziehen kann wie hier

[DR00G13]

Sind noch ziemlich neu und waren weit aufgeschnürt. Ich ziehe sie nur zu feinen Anlässen an.

[WALK1NGSUCKS]

i have a question...where is the other end of a shoelace ? o.O

[DR00G13]

Pls watch my other vid:

youtube[flupp]com/watch?v=UCbf­ZOIGBXo

There I describe it with more details.

Which shoes do you wear?

[WALK1NGSUCKS]

sry but something is wrong with video link (with and without '[flupp]') and u have planty of videos so i couldnt find it :/ (try to put video response if its not problem)

i wear black 20 eyelet steel boots and freakin love them ^^ and soon ill get myself burgundy or white rub off model (:

[DR00G13]

Please replace the "[flupp]" by a "." and remove the space in the video code. Bunno how it appeared, I didn't write it.

Would you make a special video for me?

[WALK1NGSUCKS]

@DR00G13

oh ty, now i see it ^^ (yea thats youtubes crapy prtection or smt)

verry gladly but dont have cam :((

[DR00G13]

Hmm, ok. What about mailing me some pics?^^

[WALK1NGSUCKS]

ok no problem,just leave mail (pm me or something) and soon as i find some time ill send them ;) (probably not be4 weekend cuz im 2 busy /:)

[DR00G13]

No prob. I'd like to watch them when you wear them on a thick blanket or something. That looks cool.

[comedybenj]

did solovair copy dr martens?

[DR00G13]

Nope, Solovair is a genuine brand like Dr Martens.

[DR00G13]

Which shoes do you wear btw?

[comedybenj]

i wear dr martens 14 eyelet black but i order solovair 14 eyelet burgundy rub off with a zip

[DR00G13]

With zip? Sounds funny. Nope, Solovair boots are at least as good as Martens. Your decision sounds really good. Would you make a special video with them for me?

[comedybenj]

yeah ill try do you just make a video on your phone then put it on the computer with cable then go to youtube then click on uploAD THEN YOU UPLOAD IT

[DR00G13]

Why with my phone? I own a broadcast camcorder...

[bootslave1982]

Oh can I then polish those for you .....;-)

[DR00G13]

Sure, if you want ;o)

[DR00G13]

I see. Nice video, mate!!! Thanx a lot!

[DR00G13]

That doesn't matter. New boots don't look that nice imo.

I'll look forward, mate :o)

[DR00G13]

Would be cool. I looks sooo cool when the soles cave in a bit (soft carpet, blanket, maybe pillows, etc.)!

[DR00G13]

He he :o)

What about showing them on a thick blankie?

[DR00G13]

You've got a nice taste, dude! I hope you don't skate in them...^^

Would you do a video for me?

[sneakmail]

Yessssss.... good to be right down there on the floor within reach of your steelies, pulling them towards my drooling tongue.

[DR00G13]

Yeah, mate, that sounds good. I guess I'd feel the same...^^

[xBlood564x]

LOL never knew watching someone lace up boots could be so entertaining.

[DR00G13]

XD

Entertaining? Why?

[DR00G13]

That doesn't matter - I'm just looking forward.

[DR00G13]

Btw, it would also be cool when you'd show your whole shoegear, what do you think? Greeeeetz^^

[DR00G13]

On a blankie and so on? Yeah, that would be fine!!! Thanx a lot!

[DR00G13]

Cool!!! What about doing that like me in "DR00G13's Shoe Show Club"? Would be fine!

[DR00G13]

Okilie...^^

What about taking some pics instead?

[DR00G13]

Also with white laces?

Would you make a video for me?

[DerBesteJohnny]

schöne stiefel!

wie hast du die so weich gekriegt? meine sind immer noch son bissl hart, was das schnüren behindert

[DR00G13]

Die Solovair sind noch ziemlich steif. Die Docs, die ich immer anhabe, sind durchs Laufen weich geworden. Hin und wieder fetten (oder besser: fettfreies Pflegemittel ohne Silikon auftragen und einmassieren). Ansonsten regelmäßig tragen und halt einlaufen.

Hast du sie oft an?

[DerBesteJohnny]

jeden tag, und ich tu sie nur polieren mit schuhcreme

[DR00G13]

Sollte halt möglichst fettfrei sein, weil das Leder sonst seine Atmungsaktivität verliert...

[SoldierOfFBU]

Theres a problem to lace like this, IT TAKES FUCKING TIME! :D

OI SKINHEADS! SPIRIT OF 69!!

[DR00G13]

Oh yeah, you're fucking right ;o)

What about showing yours?

Oi! & Cheers to Sweden!

[DR00G13]

Glad you like my boots ;o) Would you even make a video for me? Would be really great! Cheers!

[Fuzz12662]

Where did you get these at , they look kick-ass ?

[DR00G13]

I found them on eBay. They were nearly new.

[rickbrad1962]

Made me very happy to watch you lace those boots. Good job!!

[DR00G13]

Thanks, glad you like them.

[ddwolff]

VERY GOOD!!!

[DR00G13]

Thanx ;o)
