White's Boots
-
anybody had good transaction with these guys? http://www.ebay.com/sch/whitesriver/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=
Brand new Whites for half price…what is going on there? And a blue bullhide - never been seen before? Factory samples or rejects?
-
Any interest in factory installed Biltrite soles and Cats Paw heels? Kyle hinted to me at the possibility of a Bakers exclusive… Don't know bout you, but I'm game
-
Here one sample that is on my watch list with 7bids! http://m.ebay.com/itm/310862410359?nav=WATCHING_ENDED

Bluegrass, I'm all but certain the farmer rancher is the smokejumper with a non-lug sole, and vise versa. As for the Biltrite option; I'll keep ya posted if I get updates but Kyle told me he was talking to Whites prez about the exclusive, so I'm reasonably confident that it'll happen.
Question of my own: anyone do a bounty hunter or SJ with the packer upper? I prefer the vamp/counter stitching of the packer (that it doesn't intersect- if that makes sense). Wesco will do it, but haven't heard any similar stories for Whites…

I'm waiting for my #8 burgundy chrome excel semi dress's to come in within the next few weeks or so… I was just wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to change your single midsole into a double if you wanted to...

Thx, I suspected it was the SJ last, makes sense. I am intrigued/curious about White's Packers, you don't see many pics or hear much buzz about them. I'd like to see/hear more.

The double sole would increase the height of the heel by the width of the 2nd sole… it keeps everything in proportion - the whole boot is elevated by the width of the 2nd sole. I can't speak to the sustainability of the soles - i have the commando 1/2 sole on one of my boots but I haven't worn them long enough to comment.

Bummerrrrrrrrrr….

They are boots not to worry

There's an interesting SD build on White's ebay auctions:
The description only says "burgundy leather", but doesn't mention what type of leather it is. Calf? Water Buffalo? Seems to be very glossy and the colour has a beautiful depth. Also, the toe cap is interesting. It has that dark burnished look that is quite popular on "fashion" boots and which I normally don't like. I think it's pretty cool here. Could that be a new option - burnished dress toe cap?
What do you think? btw that pair is way too small for me. But I am thinking about a pair of SDs in the near future;-)
