          White's Nomad

          I wish the buckles on these were more retro style but otherwise I'm pleased with these.  I've probably averaged wearing these 2x a week over the last 9months.

                wow that is a nice set of boots…. I know where you can get some really great roller buckles if your interested PM me. Otherwise, those are some of the best Whites, actually some of my favorite engineers, I have ever seen. Well played ol chap.

                        Ditto to what Nuffsaid said… I am currently "ate up" with engineer boots and I WILL be getting some soon, but still very much undecided.  The advantage (for me) of White's is the sizing is a slam dunk, I love the arch ease, and of course they will be high quality - so it's all about the aesthetics/appearance.  I'd love to see more detailed pics of Nomads if anyone has some, i.e. profile, toe shape, soles, etc.  There are a just a lot of great engineer boots out there - as Tat, McClain, Finn and others can attest to.

                            Im looking to buy a pair of Whites.  I found a few pictures of pair that I would want, but not exactly sure of the specs of it.  Since you guys are experts on here, I was wondering if you could help to figure out what the exact specs are.

                            Pics:

                            More pics can be seen here: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w1004-3446660710.9.EmcpuR&id=18080215824

                            Here is what I think they are so far:

                            Style: Smoke Jumper or Bounty Hunter?
                            Height: 7in
                            Lace Design: Plain Toe
                            Last: Classic 461
                            Toe Vamp Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                            Counter Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                            Upper (Shaft) Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween
                            Leather Liner: ?
                            Edge: Brown or Natural? (Not sure what this is)
                            Midsole: ?
                            Sole: Vibram 700
                            Celastic Toe Box: ?
                            Toe Cap: Leather Toe Cap
                            Toe Cap Leather Color: Natural Chrome Excel
                            Hardware: Brass Eyes and Hooks
                            Top: ?
                            Steel Toe: No Thanks

                            Am I close? Did I get anything wrong?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

                            Thanks in advance.

                            Jon

                              Think its a natural edge, single celastic toe box, cut top, lined, single midsole but 1/2 guessing on some of those.

                                Not sure you can tell those are lined or not, but I wouldn't line those boots if it were me.

                                  CXL doesn't require lining.

                                    ^Good call.  Looks like a semi-dress last but hard to tell - anybody else?

                                          Jon,

                                          Here is what I "think":

                                          Style: Smoke Jumper or Bounty Hunter?  BH is SJ on semi-dress last.
                                          Height: 7in - not sure, looks like it.
                                          Lace Design: Plain Toe - Yes.
                                          Last: Classic 461 - Yes, I think it is.
                                          Toe Vamp Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween - Yes.
                                          Counter Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween - Yes.
                                          Upper (Shaft) Leather: Natural Chrome Excel by Horween - Yes.
                                          Leather Liner: ? I have natty cxl boots, agree with the others, not needed.
                                          Edge: Brown or Natural? (Not sure what this is) - Natural edge.
                                          Midsole: ? - Single.
                                          Sole: Vibram 700 - Yes.
                                          Celastic Toe Box: ? - Yes.
                                          Toe Cap: Leather Toe Cap - Yes.

                                          Hardware: Brass Eyes and Hooks - Think so.
                                          Top: ? Looks like cut top.
                                          Steel Toe: No Thanks - yep
                                          Also…
                                          Close trim - 1 row of stitching.
                                          Block/traveller heel, looks like standard height.
