Interesting interview with Rob Smith, Customer Service Manager over at White's
-
Great article - several times strangers have seen and asked me about my boots, and they are always fascinated when they start looking at the details, the leather, heels, sole, etc. I don't know if any have gone and bought some, but they always ask where I got them and what brand they are. Same thing with IH jeans - I know for a fact one guy who was a waiter at a restaurant I go to asked me about my jeans actually found the IH site and bought some 634s - probably 2-3 weeks take-home pay! Dude loves his jeans.

Do anyone know the differences between the last´s?
Especially the difference between the classic and standard last.
Thank you! -
I'm no expert but here is a start - others will comment/clarify for sure…
Smoke-Jumper - the "standard"/base White's last - a "squarish" toe shape
Semi-Dress - has a lower profile than the SJ, "rounder" toe shape
Bounty Hunter is a SJ style boot built with a SD last
Western - pointier/slimmer toe (Packer)
C641 - SD last with a more upturned toe (you can get this last on a number of boots incl. Classic Dress, and Americana/retro too I think)
Cougar/Northwest - not sure on that one. -

Cougar/Northwest - not sure on that one.I've called White's several times and even they don't give good descriptions of the different lasts. It would be helpful if they showed the toe shape on their models. The soles are also quite confusing. If you order single leather sole with vibram 700 or commando…you get a double leather sole...or at least what looks and feels like one. Go figure!!!

Here are the whites I've been sporting lately…

Killer with the pimped 70

Thanks! I went the way of doing a full custom
fit at a local retailer here in CO but for the actual boot build up I wanted to keep it really simple, and classic. I'm super pleased with how they came out. -
Very nice Z-Diddy, total classic look.
