Another black derby post (Solovair Gibson)
Hi. I’ve been thinking about picking up some black derbies for a while now. Haven’t found secondhand Alden, AE, Rancourt, etc in my size.
Criteria:
Under $300
Black
Rubber sole
Comfortable
I was really drawn to these shoes from Solovair? My biggest question is: are they as difficult to break in as Dr Martens? Do they hurt like Dr Martens?
Any other recommendations for black derbies?
