White's Boots

Thanks Mega. I'm most like,y going for the Bakers. Vibergs are dope but I can't justify close to $600 for an Oxford when Bakers are $300. I'm just concerned about the 2021 sole. I like it but have one on a pair of Redwings and it's super stiff. I almost wonder if the cobbler put an extra shank in there or something because I spoke with Kyle at Bakers the other day and he said they are normally really flexible and soft. Gonna start an Oxford fund, and try to earmark some cash from some other bullshit to get this ball rolling sooner than later.

MTO, sorry man

Honestly, I wish that I had gone for Red Dog rough out now, just looks so fucking good on the oxfords.
-
10-12 week turnaround time for MTO's at the moment for Bakers (whites) :-\

Im debating red dog or the standard distressed rough out. I like your black CXL's Mega, but my SJ/BH are black CXL, and I need to go another route for variety's sake.
I did really like Vibergs oxfords that are black CXL with rough out on the eyelet area. Looks pretty slick -
10-12 weeks turnaround = a-ok for me… Am I the only one who thinks 300 $ for these shoes is almost dirtcheap?.. I'm exaggerating, sure, but I'm certain you get a lot of fucking shoe for the money!..
Adjusted... PS: if I'm a 7.5 UK in Red Wing, 8 UK in Grenson and Tricker's; I'd be a 8.5 US in these right?..

No way, they fit fucking huge, go a half size down from your Red Wing size.

Yup, roll with that plan
I'm a true UK 10, I ordered my Oxfords in a US 10 and if anything they are still a little roomy.

You bastards are going to get me in trouble with all this talk.

I might be the first'un to take the plunge… Lando and Finn: standby
Naw I'm good. Wanted a something like this some time ago, however now I can just live vicariously through you all. Enjoy and please, keep the imagery coming!

dang, I might be a close second behind Seul. Fuck, this boot game is serious…
-
Once you got a decent pair of shoes, and a decent pair of boots, it's all gravy
-
yea, my SJ's are amazing. I just bought a pair of Oakstreet boot makers though, and while I like them, something is not satisfying me about them. Not sure if I will hang onto them or not. My original plan was to just go with Bakers Oxfords, but I got sidetracked. In retrospect, I probably should have just stuck to my original plan. One pair of Whites boots, and one pair of the Oxfords is a mighty fine thought….
