I see why subtle was not used in your description.  Just be careful that you don't get Tommy stuck in the tread….

Boots of mass destruction …..BMD

Cripes! Nice pick up Mega

[tmg]

I saw those, very cool

Will be interested to see how much you get charged for shipping, and then import and "admin" charges.

[Chris]

Might end up being $600 after all…

[Megatron1505]

Shipping is $59, import charge is in the lap of the gods unfortunately 

But, they would have been $600 plus all that anyway…so still winning (as Charlie Sheen would say).

[urbanwoodsman]

Could always ship to an NYC address and wait. Usually $25 for shipping from them to NYC.

fucking SCORE!  nice work

@Megatron1505:

Boots ordered 

And my wait time will be around nine days, rather than 8 weeks 

Whitesriver on eBay had the exact make up I wanted for my dream boots, in the exact leathers, with a triple leather sole, and the exact Vibram sole. 

The colour make up was different, but I watched the auction for a week and ended up paying $420 for them, when to have them made would have cost almost $600 

I am a happy man

ha…that's exactly the reaction I've wanted you to have, since i knew you couldn't hold back

thx though, nice pickup!...

Thanks Shane, but I want some break in time with these bad boys before treading the pavements of NYC in them 

Rafa, you know me too well. I just didn't want to share until I knew they were mine 

The thing that really attracted me to them (I know they won't be everyone's taste) was the cap toe on a pair of lace to toe boots, it's the first time I've seen any Whites with that feature, and it's not an option through either Bakers or Whites.

The boots I have dreamed about for absolutely months were like these, but plan toe with a cap, and a two tone of tan bull hide, and black bull hide. I wanted a pair of boots that look like they will last a lifetime, like so much of my IH gear

You should of started six months ago 

[Megatron1505]

Thats my worry

@urbanwoodsman:

You should of started six years ago

Sorry to say but that lugsole turns me off VERY much. Obviously they don't sand streets in GB at wintertime.

Otherwise nice looking boots…and I'd say with triple leather sole, you will be breaking them in looong time.
