      @demonito:

      Awesome boots Demonito - would you mind telling me the build spec?

      Still keen to know the spec on these - anyone?
      I'm guessing that they're 8" SD's with a mixture of black dress and bullhide?

        For some reason the picture's missing from my last post?

          Hi.  Can anyone speak to the difference between the "Standard" last and the "Semi-dress" last on a Smokejumper/Farmer-rancher.  I guess I thought they were the same, but Bakers lists both as options (along with the Swing and the 461 Classic, which I have a good sense of…)

          Thanks.

            From experience with both I would say the SJ is more roomy full stop and noticeably in height above the instep and toe box. Hope that helps.

              same here, plus the standard last has no upturn in the front, the soles are sitting flat on the ground.

                  After 8 weeks, the wait is over.

                  White's 6" Bounty Hunters

                  They fit great right out of the box. I feel like I could probably go with a regular width on my next pair though and only have a few days of break in time. Next build will be an 8" Bounty Hunter Plain Toe in all Natural CXL.

                  Here are the specs:
                  Bounter Hunter
                  Toe Vamp Leather: Black Chrome Excel by Horween
                  Celastic Toe Box: Single
                  Heel Counter Leather: Black Smooth
                  Height: 6"
                  Upper (Shaft) Leather : Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                  Leather Liner: Cream
                  Sole Trim: Close Trim
                  Top: Cut
                  Back Stay Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                  Pull Loop: Yes
                  Eyelet Color: Brass
                  Eyelet Configuration : Eyelet
                  Top Garment: Eyelet
                  Lace Design: Lace to Toe
                  Lace: Leather
                  False Tongue: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                  Sole: Vib 430
                  Heel Shape: Block
                  Heel Height: Standard
                  Last: Bounty Hunter (Semi Dress Last)
                  Midsole: Standard single
                  Midsole/Edge Color: Natural
                  Size - Length: 8.5
                  Size - Width: E

                  I'll take better images eventually.

                  False Tongue or No false tongue? I'm torn.

                          Love them. I'm just in love with Natty CXL. It's one of the most interesting leathers I've ever seen, besides the Brown American Harness from Viberg.

                                    Such an interesting leather. I wish there was an even lighter version. I guess it depends on each hide though.

                                    You will not be let down. Order from Kyle at Bakers. He even got 3 different leathers through for me. You can barely tell from pics but the heel is Black Smooth. I figured it would be better to have a harder wearing leather on the heel compared to the Black CXL Toe Vamp.

                                    Please let me know when you go. If they have what I want in my size, I may need a favor…

                                        I'd skip the false tongue, personally.  Never liked them, nor have I ever understood the purpose of them.

                                        EDIT: Great boots otherwise, and I'll chime in with my love of the natural CXL, too.

                                          glad you got the 3 leathers past them.  Having CXL on the heel is one of the only regrets with my build, as it gets banged up pretty bad.  That natty CXL ages great, it'll be brownish before you know it.

                                            They look a lot better than I thought they would, and that natural CXL is quite stunning, I imagine it'll develop so much character. It's got me wondering how it would look on a build the same as G's two-tone SJ's, where it would be used instead of the distressed smooth…...or just a two-tone combo with brown dress.

                                            My wish list for White's boots grows ever longer...
