      If they fit, don't get insoles.  The leather will gradually mold to your foot over time.

        it felt as if i was walking on rocks yesterday

        were you walking on rocks? I have had two pair of White's with that sole, and I couldn't feel anything through that thick rubber. It was over kill once I stopped working in them, and felt ridiculous walking around town in them.

        those are good looking boots, and I think a single leather sole/half sole version would look great to.

          SS:  The leather base will get fitted to your feet.  From my experience, expect about 100 wears until they are broken in properly.

              Just keep wearing them and try to not think about it.  One day you'll wake up and they'll feel perfect.

                  About insole….

                  I always get those thin leather/cork insoles if my boots come without ones. So SS you might wanna try those. I use them mainly to "protect" the boot from sweat/moisture from feets. Easier and faster to dry the insoles than whole boot...

                    Honestly, if White's were meant to be worn with insoles, they would have provided them.  No need unless you want to fill a bit of the room up or have other issues.  The arch support took me a bit to get used to but now its not even noticeable.  The leather footbed will mold to your foot, but it will take a while for that to happen..  Just wear them, easy at first, and gradually increase the time.

                      im sorry with triple leather midsole and 100 outsole i think theyll be the ones to max you out. anyways its hard for you to crouch or kneel with those boots well as what with mine double mids and a halfsole.

                                            For some reason that pic makes the sole, etc, just look disgusting…in a good way.  Just so over the top.
