White's Boots

[palma]

Hi guys

Just wondering if bounty hunter/smoke jumper uses a thicker piece of midsole on boots with a single midsole. I was looking at east west apparel's website and it looks like this boot which according to the owner of the shop is confirmed to be a single midsole looks like has almost 2 or 1.5 pieces of leather. Anybody else notice this on their SJ especially if compared to SD?

I can't speak for East Wests stock, but the boot in that picture has a double midsole.

They are seriously the most comfortable footwear I have ever owned, it's like wearing slippers all day

Hi Palma…..and Mega,

They are a single midsole actually. It does look like a double but a White's single is made up of 2 thinner leather sole's. I you you look at the British Tab Semi Dress and see the thickness there, that's a double leather sole with no outer sole and it's thicker than the SJ leather. Just for info.

Cheers.

So it is, apologies for not spotting that. The make up of using two single "thinner" leathers is a relatively recent thing from Whites I think, my older boots definitely had only a single piece leather midsole.

For instance on my current SD's in comparison to my current Bounty Hunters.

Love those, d.  I have a feeling they are going to look REALLY nice in 6+ months.

Those are going to age beautifully. Great selection Jeff!!

[Finn666]

brilliant, just brilliant…those colors go so well together!
def. is something to keep in mind for future boot purchases...even though the stitching on the natty cxl part isn´t that accurate. but that´s bitching on the highest level

^I would be pissed if my boots had stitching like that, but maybe it's just the pic…

[Finn666]

^just turned the pic the right way and yeah…the queen wouldn´t be amused i think!
