White's Boots
-
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: EFalse Tongue or No false tongue? I'm torn.
These are my favorites from the thread. Awesome. I normally don't like the false tongue, but with this configuration it's perfect.
I was thinking of doing the same as this except for brown semi dress where you have the black.
Do you have any pics of them on?

im anti-kilte, but regardless, the boots look great

I like the Oxford´s, I think about buying one pair for the next Summer. How do they fit compared to Red Wings? I have a US 8,5/EU 41,5 in my RW 875, but I think a US 9 would work better.
-
So I took the plunge and ordered some Classic Work Boots in all black cxl, 8", dbl natural midsole, std heel 1/4" lowered with composition half sole, plain toe cap, single celastic, yadda yadda, yadda… These will be used for daily wear and motorcycle riding duties.
And now we play the waiting game.

The Whites Oxfords fit slightly bigger than Red Wings, stay with an 8.5 in my opinion.

Gear changing your cycle will destroy the CXL, it is a very soft leather, again, in my opinion.

d666: man you produce more hardcore shots than a man who's worked for Hustler for 40 years…
Seriously true. The shots just keep coming endlessly. I always wonder what else can possibly be sitting in that closet??!!

Yea, CXL doesnt like motorcycles. On the inside of the heel area it will also rub, depending on your bike style. I have a SV650, and thats where I get the majority of my wear. The gear selector is also a danger area, liek Mega said. I remedied that by cleaning it and padding it a bit with some rubber. My boots were still unhappy so I stopped using them for riding.
