What is the wait time for a pair these days?  Six to eight weeks?

[unharmed]

Mine took 8.5 from order to shipping.

kyle says 8

[unharmed]

They had to change my sole choice so that probably added a little time.

[unharmed]

They're here!

Love those…..

[unharmed]

Thanks, G. Wore them all day yesterday and they're not the foot-torture devices I had heard new Whites can be tbh.

[demonito]

what leather are those? if theyre cxl yes theyre no torture device!

[unharmed]

Yes, brown CXL. Feet are still a bit sore today, mind but nowhere near as bad as I feared.

I've never felt a new pair of Whites was a torture to break in, I might have been lucky but all the ones I own/ have owned have been extremely comfortable from the first wear.

[unharmed]

I imagine it's highly dependant on the shape of your feet. Guess you and I are the lucky ones

Just bought a pair- should be here in 8 weeks.  Hopefully they come sooner, but I doubt it.

My White's were a breeze. My Wescos took about a year to break in.

[bubbapest]

Has anyone ever worn the Nomads?

Or should I just go for Wesco Boss

[demonito]

i had the nomads before but 58 panhead got it off me.  theyre great boots feels like your wearing a pair of smoke jumpers.

but id rather get the boss.

i broke in my wesco boss in black oil in 1 week.  i put pecards and heat gun maybe 3 layers innit. and walked for a week in them ( 12 hrs a day)

[riffblaster general]
