White's Boots

G, beasts. Makes me wish I'd brought mine so we could have kicked the Hotel Carter down 

Luggage allowance was only 23kg each though

@Giles:

He apparently lost his nerve and is currently wearing his lovely deerskin boots.  Wimp.

EDIT: sorry for the terrible dark pic.

My new White's SD are in from Baker's. Went with the "classic brown" leather this time around, with tapered heel, and 1/4" lowered heel. Couldn't be happier with them. According to Baker's, the "classic brown" leather is dry-tanned and will take a polish nicely and patina with age similar to the dress brown. It will develop a crackly finish and patina fairly quickly.

Here's the full config:
Last Standard, Sole Leather, Size - Length 11, Hardware All Antique Eyes, Edge Natural, Upper (Shaft) Leather Classic Brown, Midsole Single, Pull Loops No Thanks, Leather Liner Tan, Sole Trim Close Trim, Toe Vamp Leather Classic Brown, Size - Width D (medium), Toe Cap No Thanks, Celastic Toe Box Single Celastic Toe, Heel Base Standard

Here are a couple shots. I tried to color correct these as best I could, but in real life they are more of a deep brown and less saturated in color:

Blaster, I love that dropped and lowered heel. Looks super classic. Well done. General G, can't wait to see those break in. Beat 'em up!!!

[supersalami]

hey guys, do you get indigo stains on your boots? and if so, how do you clean them off?

[ronaldlsh]

Saddle soap? I would leave the stains alone actually.

Mr G, the mid soles in your pair look pretty sick? Triple or double?

[Giles]

I wimped out- just double…..

That's my favourite boot build, fantastic 

If they don't work for you, let me know

[Megatron1505]

Picked up my new (to me) Hathorns from Urb yesterday, really pleased with them. They look like a sturdy, casual boot.
