White's Boots

[Ragehaver]

Good advice all, thank you. I emailed Baker's for advice (bounty vs. standard) and maybe I'll check out Graham Fowler.

[Bluegrass]

if you want them to look just like the ones in the pic you shared, i think that is the more "square" standard SJ last. And I agree there is no substitute for trying them on if you can go to GF… either way you can't go wrong and are getting some great boots.

Here are the pictures of my new White's. Ordered on 2/7, and received them 3/14.

standard heel

lifted this from a facebook comment on the White's page…Packers, 7 years old vs. new ones:

Probably could've went another decade or even longer if they were taken care of properly but interesting to see!

I'm guessing those are working boots, not walking around town and city boots like 99.9% of us use them for though.

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if those were worn by an actual smokejumper for 7 wildfire seasons and have been rebuilt 2-3 times already.

Baker's in-house resole with Dr Sole raw cord half soles and heels….

(Not mine, but been harpin on Kyle to stock this stuff )

[urbanwoodsman]

I have a pair of Vibergs on their way to Bakers to get the Dr. Soles put on. They said the price would be $100-120, not too bad.

Have plans to do the same thing with my Corcoran x WWII Impressions boonies… Just can't quite justify a $200 resole on em; $100 is a bit easier pill to swallow

White's Semi Dress Natural CXL

Loving those!

Do the photos give a fairly accurate representation of the colour?

[Giles]

That is a pretty accurate representation of natural CXL…..

As is this....

[Bluegrass]

Kinda liking those Dr. Soles, wonder if they will ever add as an option for new boots? Guess they'd have to get White's and Wesco to agree, perhaps a tough sell…

Agree with G, that's a pretty true pic of nat. cxl. Mine when new, with a nat. cxl belt from Hollows. Mine look a bit yellow in that light...

This one is better pic

And "used"

White's Cougars with Giles' favorite Vibram 2021 sole.

Is there a size difference between the two?

I`ve heard cougar is one half up recommended?

Love the BH`s!
