I've tried on boots a few times, like Red Wings, Clarks DB etc but they all look odd on me.
I find that I usually wear narrower shoes and shoes that aren't too round at the toe.

Any pointers how to wear them boots?
i think you're just not comfortable with your own look in them. i dont really ever see someone wearing boots and think, "god those does not suit him!". unless you're wearing shorts or something.

they hold up pretty good. i suppose it might depend on which cobbler you go to, but its a basic procedure and all but the worst cobblers will get it done right. i think it cost me around $20.
i've only worn my boots probably 15 times in the last year so i cant really speak for the durability of the soles.
surely they'll last at least 3-4 years before possibly having to be re-done. better than re-soling the actual leather.
