HEAVYWEIGHT BOOTS CHAMPIONSHIP 2013 - 2015
-
BTW what is the heaviest leather white's is offering?
I'd be interested in hearing an opinion on this, too.
-
I would imagine that Bullhide is up there.

I don't think so! Bullhide is pretty soft and thin.. as compared to their usual dress leathers.
-
Having owned Bullhide and Dress, Bullhide is heavier.
-
Sure you're not thinking of buffalo, I have that too and that is a beautiful soft leather (I prefer it to CXL).

Haha no, I'm talking about bull hide. I have them on my 2 tone bounty hunters, and they really do feel softer and lighter than the dress
-
I have no idea then, my bull hide boots (the Armageddon boots) were thick, stiff and very heavy, the old dress leather SD's were quite pliable.
-
I'm thinking burgundy may be the way to go…
Although these natural bounty hunters look mighty fine…
so both of these do have the "Standard" heel right?
the natural cxl BH has no celastic toe box, so is this how all the boots without that detail gonna look?
what's the advantage/disadvantage of that feature anyway?also, where can I find the option (on the Bakers page) to add a kilty? it's not showing…
-
Anyone from europe have any experience with custom for importing boots? Fees and dealings issues? ta
It varies from country to country, but it's not pleasant.
-
To have a celastic toe toe really just depends on whether you want the toe box to keep its shape or not, some people really dig the "collapsed" look the toe box gets with wear, I don't.
-
When will the participant list be out?
50 pair of boots. 2 years.
Can't wait. -
Imo toe box is just to mantain the shape of the toe? Whreas stell option is for safety purpose? As for the kilties i think it comes as standard package? You are going for a second order finn?
yeah that's what I thought as well…would love to see two aged pairs of boots, one with and one with ought the celastic toe box!
anyone got pics?
nope, no 2nd order...need to get the first one done to see if everything ends up fine, after that sure ill order another pair...not in the next 2years though

Hi All,
Seeing as there's a lot of attention in this thread, thought I'd make note that we're 1 backer short of getting a custom run of IHVB-01. Thought someone in this thread who's got the boot lust may be interested. The last backer gets to decide on the sole either original or Urbs/BLACKFROSTT style.
original sole
LOOKING for ONE other buyers willing to go in with us for this build
BLK DENIM SCOUT BOOT
with
*natural colored sole INSTEAD of the darker brown as pictured[quote author=urbanwoodsman link=topic=1685.msg207772#msg207772 date=1350339912]
THREE DOWN! ONE TO GO!!
If interested, oh last backer, please make yourself known over in the Viberg thread.
Now, back to our regular HWBC programming :D.
