White's Boots

[Bums_Fan]

Took delivery of these from Baker's Shoes a couple of weeks ago.  I'm very pleased with how they turned out; Kyle's customer service, the fit, and the overall look.

nice build

[Mild7]

Yes indeed! Mine are still at least 6 weeks away

[Jordan23]

How should this fit? Real snug and tight or do i need some space especially when having celastic toes?

Enjoy ya addiction!

A little room in the toe is how I like mine.

Thx Mega, wasn't sure. I have a Bounty Hunter here and i have a little space. So  i ve found out right size for my Contest Pair.;)

The pair i have here has a single sole. Let me tell you they are much heavier than Viberg Service Boots!!!

Enjoy ya addiction!

@SG thanks for the comment.

@Mid7 Thanks.  I ordered them the last week of November and took delivery of them January 22nd.  The wait was worth it!

I apologize if this has been beaten to death, but where in this thread (ie page number) may I be able to find pros and cons of getting a double mid sole + standard height heel?

Thanks,

Lovely pair Andi..

[SpaceGnome]

How much room to do have in the front?

[Jordan23]

About 0,6 cm!

Enjoy ya addiction!

[SpaceGnome]

oh, those might be too small .  Size and comfort is an individual thing, but I was always under the impression that you want a thumbs width of space in the front of the boot.

[Jordan23]

My right foot is taller than my left. So my left has a thumb!

Enjoy ya addiction!

Cheers for the mention and custom :), hope you enjoy'm.

i don't think there are any pros or cons.. maybe a double mid sole takes a little longer to break in? but that's about it.

[Mild7]

^ I went the DBL sole cause I reckon it gives the boot a much more substantial look, which I like in the SD boot.

Cant comment on break in, but accordingto Giles and Mega it makes little difference.  Moreso the shaft leather chosen will affect breakin time/initial comfort.

But, mine havent arrived yet, so i may be well off-base.
