      an extremely long 8 weeks came to a close this morning.  Better quality pics and fit pics this weekend.  Fit is spot on, the -1/4" heel makes the arch fucking perfect.

                  Went to White's in Spokane earlier today. Such an awful drive… Anyway, sorry for the lack of pictures of actual construction of the boot. Guess they didn't want me very close to the employees  😢

                        That's about it~ Didn't leave with anything (aside for some rawhide laces). I can safely say a pair of White's are in my near-future… 😃

                                Quick question: someone over at SF said that White's distressed cowhide was among their hardest/most durable leathers (seems weird, since I'm skeptical of everything pre-distressed?). I'm planning to get a pair of americana/retro semi dress boots with a cap toe, and I want something that a) will last me 10-15 years and b) will look decent/get a nice shine/patina over time with a little care and lots of use.

                                So, within the larger framework of "brown" leathers that white's supply, which combines good looks and durability best? And i definately pirority durability the highest.

                                Seize the day and don't you cry.

                                  The simple answer is their brown dress leather, tough, durable, and evolves great. My SD's are coming up to 4 years old, have seen plenty of wear, and still look great.

                                      Anyone know if White's sells replacement laces or if you've found anything similar. Mine have started to fray from the speedhooks.

                                          I can post some up on Sunday, but I am away until then. Google should turn out some pretty nice pics though.
