White's Boots

[SpaceGnome]

opinion request.  Im having an 8" smokejumper being build,  and as of now, I am having a composite half sole put on.  Its been floating around in my head for some time, and seeing that rough out pic above, that that might be too much boot for a half sole.  Opinions?  Its either a comp half or a full 700.

Great boot Monday. When you get some more info on it I'd love to see it.

So much for trying to keep things positive eh?

will publish once they get back to me

[riffblaster general]

so here is the response to my question, i would quote my question but figured if YOU are interested YOU could do it:

---

Monday,

The picture shown looks like a 6” lace to toe brown rough out smoke jumper, with brass hardware and natural stain on the sole. I’m not sure what sole it is, it could be the comp or mini vib sole. The cost for that boot if you order through us is $450.00. If you have any other questions please feel free to contact us at any time.

Thank you,

White’s Boots, Inc.

Unfortunately after 8 hours of serious thought and very sore feet. I will not be able to keep the Whites. Going to stick with my Alden's.
