They're basically old-school Doc Martens, nothing fancy. But unlike Doc Martens, they actually come in my size. Occasionally. I could have bought some 11-hole boots back then, but I decided to hold out for 14-hole which were out of stock. I signed up to be informed when they came back in, and got an email just before Christmas.</p> <p>Obviously with everything else going on, it took me a while to notice the email. But once I did I rushed to the online shop and bought them. I have been a good boy and deserve a treat! They arrived today and they look great! Since this photo I've done a bit more work to tension the laces properly. They have side zips so I don't have to unlace them every time to take them off.</p> <p><a href="https://diffrentcolours.dreamwidth.org/file/12104.png"><img src="https://diffrentcolours.dreamwidth.org/file/480x480/12104.png" alt="My lower legs, wearing black leather 14-hole Solovair boots" title="Nice Boots" /></a></p> <p>And yes it hasn't escaped my attention that there are certain clubs full of gentlemen who would really appreciate these boots. Nor the risk of being mistaken for a neo-Nazi TBH, but I'll be extra queer and camp to mitigate that.</p> <br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=diffrentcolours&ditemid=966790" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://diffrentcolours.dreamwidth.org/966790.html kink shoes public 3
