      Did anyone apply Obenaufs or something similar to the distressed smooth leather to darken it up a bit??

        Kilties in!  Tried securing one the normal way and the other more 'over the top' - tempted by the less orthodox approach, but may well be a passing fancy - thoughts gents?

                it seems most cobblers don't have the tools and/or knowledge to resole a regular pair of White's because of the double stitching through the outersoles. I've noticed the 'close trim' option only has one stitch going through the welt and outer sole. Does this mean the close trim is in fact a regular goodyear stitch and thus easily resoled by cobblers?

                  Look what just arrived 🙂

                  they're so great in person and the communication with East West Apparel with sizing advice tracking numbers and any queries I had in general were all answered immediately, I couldn't recommend them enough! Thanks again!

                    The Bakers website did not like my payment via PayPal, so I send an e-mail to kyle. He usually answers my questions within the next hour or something, but this time I already waited 24 hours nearly. Being patient sucks haha Please take my money!!!

                        Yes, I should start to safe some money for the new heavy flannel´s and the deck-jacket, but I got a little tax-refund 🙂 I wanna order a pair of Whites Bounty Hunter, distressed smooth, 430 Vib sole…
                        Nice to hear that you go to Böttcher 😉 What´s up with the Dettmer appointment?

                                Make up time is 8-10 weeks at the moment, maybe 12 weeks. Like I said in the official meet-up thread -> anytime, anywhere!!! No reason to be jealous or something. You have appointments with Böttcher and Dettmer, I should be jealous 😉

                                          Just for comparison. Anybody have a link to what boots in Brown Smooth and Brown Oil Tan leather look like. I wanted to compare and see which is closest to Brown Chromexcel. I looked on rakuten, but they just say Brown not sure what type.

                                          THanks,

                                            Hi all, it's a bit of an ask but I'm in desperate need of a couple of boot photo's for my website (the custom boots part) and am hoping that someone, if feeling generous, might kindly be able to post pics up or send them to me per chance? I am trying to get a couple of good shots of a pair of White's on the swing last (number 38), birds-eye view and any other if possible. I've not ordered any to get any stock shots and don't really want to go stealing off of google. Also a rolled top shot and cap toe in a different colour from the vamp if possible?

                                            Any help is very much appreciated and excuse the cheek.

                                            Jamie.
