                Marvelous ideas mates!

                Personally I liked "Don't sell yourself short" the most, but the man says it sounds like it could be mistaken for a midget joke. Think the top three contestants are now: “Where Size Doesn't Matter”, “We're big in all the right places”, and "We're big where it counts."

                For names we’re thinking about something simple like Little People. So the final name/slogan would be something like: “Little People: Where Size Doesn't Matter” or “Little People: We're big where it counts."
                Thanks

                            Guess it depends on the style and your intended use.  I like each, but my pairs are very different.

                              Ok, a little more info.

                              I'm thinking a low profile toe work boot with reasonable traction sole, durable leather, something to get me through winter.

                              I've also toyed with the idea of engineer boots, i.e. The Wild Ones or a Boss, but I don't know if I'm "that guy" to wear engineer boots.

                              Edit: the back story is that (as some of you know) I have always been a staunch supporter of Whites and I was kinda proud that when most made the mad dash to Viberg I stuck with Whites and I really liked that they just kept on doing their thing in their Spokane workshop and basically ignored the whole fashion boot thing.

                              The sale of Whites to ABC Mart has really kinda pissed on my chips so far as they are concerned, I know that most of you probably won't see why but it just has. I can only compare the feeling to being really into a band when I was a kid and suddenly seeing dorks everywhere wearing their shirts….. irrational I know.

                                see your point….

                                so something like the Viberg Country derby boot, more or less?

                                  I suspected that might be part of the thought process.  Based on your love of the Bounty Hunter/Smoke Jumper, I'd recommend Wesco.  A pair of Jobmasters would be right up your alley.  And Wesco will do all sorts of customizations (unlike Viberg), so you can get exactly what your heart desires.  They also have that hefty, bulletproof aesthetic that you like.  They're less expensive, too.

                                    Cheers guys, I was 90% Wesco anyway, then saw a pic of some Vibergs which made me reconsider slightly.

                                      the next pair of boots indigobitch and i have ordered are wescos.

                                      because:
                                      the are genius,
                                      friends are distributing/building them,
                                      they have the custom thing running,
                                      and they relay know what they do.

                                      but,
                                      i own three pairs of vibergs and they are absolutely great.
                                      would definitely go for another pair in the future.

                                      ps: can absolutely recommend engineer boots.

                                      cheers!

                                        I know FOXY mentioned this, but these comics were also translated into English, right?.. Under what title?.. I ask because not all albums were translated into Dutch but I would LOVE to read them, so maybe there are English versions!..
