the beautiful contrast between the bull hide and brown dress

scuffing showing some beautiful lighter shades

for me obenaufs are not so good i suggest you use pecards. use a heat gun or a blow dryer and heat up the part of the boots you need to moisturize and then put pecards and then heat it up a bit youll see the difference

whites actually use pecards!

What do you use from Pecards? Boot Oil or the Leather Dressing?

demonito

demonito

second one down says Obenaufs right under the product name. They also sell branded Pecards

demonito

oh ok as far as i know ( bill formerly of stronghold and steve marrow whites agent) said that they use pecards well that was way back 2006.

demonito

supersalami

demonito

Thinking about ordering my first pair of White's, and will probably order a pair of horse hide semi dress, can anyone explain the difference(s) in the available lasts (standard, swing, 38)? Send a mail to Bakers, but maybe someone here knows? Thanks.

The swing last supposedly has a little more room across the toe box than the statndard which is why I've ordered it on my SJs. the 38 I don't know about.

FurattoHeddo

Seems I fecked up 38 is the same as swing last, I meant 461 classic last (damn copy pasting feckups)…

Also considering my first pair of White's. And as much as I hate asking this type of question, can I get a size recommendation? I'm a size 10 in Viberg and an 11 in athletic shoes (Mizuno, Nike, PF Flyers, New Balance).

So, size 11 for the swing last, do you think? Any help is appreciated.

FurattoHeddo, I'm interested in hearing what Bakers has to say about the lasts. I'm looking at snagging a pair of horsehide semi dress too….

when i stand on a brannock, i am right on the line at 10. I usually buy 10.5 athletic shoes because of this. That said, I am a 10 in whites and I still have room. Not too much but enough.
