Alternative to Docs

[Anonymous]

I’ve always worn black Docs boots. But they just feel so heavy this year. My feet are wide-ish, but not “wide” in actual size. My boots have black thread, not the bright yellow.

Any recommendations for something similar in look but a bit lighter in feel?

I’ve tried them, but they’re not quite wide enough

If you’ve actually seen them in person why would you mention how they look online? Weird comment.

Prada
Gucci

Just about every brand at all price points offer a combat boot.

Jesus Christ. First, sorry you have no taste and are a flinty itch about that. Second, I’m mentioning both aspects so OP can keep it pushing with better suggestions…like Blundstones. Troentorps. Solovair. Searching her size for a designer rubber-soled Chelsea boot on The Real Real. She can spend the same or far less at Sam Edelman or even Universal Thread at Target for a Thursday Boot Co look.

DP. Where have you seen Thursday boots in person? I've only seen online and - somehow - in a catalog sent to my house. They look nice enough, but most anything can with good photography.

I tried this company after seeing all the recommendations here and was very disappointed in the fit and apparent quality.

+1. They were not comfortable.

PPs, which style of Blundstones do you wear?

I have worn Docs, Blundstones, Ariat, Thursday Boot Company, Troentorp, Frye, Coach, and Timberlands. It varies with the styles, but Ariat and Thursday Boot Company were probably the lightest, although the bouncy-ness of the Docs gave them the edge for comfort throughout a long day with a fair amount of steps and walking.
