White's Boots

[Oilfieldtrash]

I have a nice pair of Whits 350s for sale on the Buying and Selling part if anyone is interested.

I had these MP service boots in natural cxl for sale and no takers after a couple months, so decided I’ll keep them and start wearing. Here’s what they looked like from the factory:

Last night I oiled them to help with the break in. I have whites boot oil and apply liberally:

Then this morning gave them a good brushing and they are ready to go:

@chucklando Some great looking boots

[chucklando]

About a month of wear on these. Natural CXL

I’ve been drooling over the Leaf Green Collection of late. Tis a pity they aren’t currently in the budget.

@Matt back from hibernation and looking great. Still in awe of the deal you got on those.

[Matt]

I know. Im very grateful and will wear them proudly.

Baker’s sale started last night — anyone else pull the trigger? @SKT got your eye on anything? I got some Cruisers in cinnamon waxed.

[SKT]

@popvulture man that’s funny I was just gonna reach out to you! Nothing for me this year, I’m still kind of breaking stuff in. I’m thinking a custom Semi-dress next year or Smoke Jumper. Glad you got an order in!

[popvulture]

@SKT yeah man I'm psyched! Guess now I've just gotta wait. How long did it take you to get yours after your Black Friday order?

[SKT]

Hmm. I think they were done in July. It really felt pretty quick. But it seemed like it would take forever the day I put the order in

[SKT]

@popvulture did you stray from the standard build?

[popvulture]

Damn that’s a pretty long time! I just did standard though. Probably the only thing I would’ve considered doing custom would be getting a 12.5 instead of 13. Decided to just opt for the whole size in an effort to get em more quickly, plus I think I’ve just been wearing my shoes too small for ages and need to start being kinder to my feet.

[SKT]

@popvulture they’re gonna be awesome. Now you just need to forget about em. In solidarity I won’t mention the build until you post a pic of em on your feet. Be here before you know it ️

[popvulture]

Haha @SKT yeah it’ll totally happen before I know it — my Wills took 2 years (or actually in the end a little less iirc) and it ended up feeling a lot faster in the end.

Huge fan of White's Boots here. I own 4 pairs along with Wesco, Truman, Trickers, Alden, Redwing Heritage and my White's are my favorites. I'm not sure you can get a better value than the Perry Select right now. I've heard stories about quality control but the one problem I had was resolved within 24hrs and their customer service department couldn't have been nicer to me. From left to right I have a pair of black chromexel MPs, black double shot Perry Select, burgundy double shot Perry Select, and a pair of custom horsehide Semi-Dress. The semi dress on the 55 last is the most comfortable pair of boots I own and it's not even close.

Forgot to add the pic...lol
