      @JCMx800:

      Nice boots JCMx800! That red dog rough-out looks superb! The red tongue, red line by the welt and natural edge make for beautiful details. Good taste sir.

            My favorite part of the forum is by far… pictures!  Those are awesome!  I can see you are jumping right into the dirt and breaking them in... remind us what the two leathers are??

                Wow, that looks great with the thick leather.  They kind of looked two-toned in the first pic on your feet.

                  Any pics of a build close to this? #55 last, soft toe, standard heel, single midsole, 269 outsoles

                  I'm debating the heel specs for some boondocker inspired BHs in distressed RO; to either go with a lowered standard heel with 269 soles or lowered with 700 or 430 soles. I thought for sure I'd want the lowered with 430 ala Bluegrass or Hollows, but my recently aquired SDs with double leather soles on the standar heel got me thinking differently. Haven't seen many pics out there (if any!) of the standard heel with a soft toe.

                  Ok I'm done typing 😃

                    soft toe bullhide picture here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Whites-Boots-Semi-Dress-Black-5-top-size-9-5-D-/310814655705?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item485dff44d9&nma=true&si=LFaJB5RJ%252BoDJxXBi4s0b3CAk8P0%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

                    Bretro - maybe these (posted by 4c) have a standard heel height w/ 700 sole… hard to tell.

                      Cheers man- perfect! Also kinda reinforces my thought that the soft toe on a standard heel would look like a packer boot. Whatcha think?

                        Alright, got my build ready, but can anyone help confirm the last (standard?) and if the heel is lowered (quarter inch?)? Spoke with Kyle and we both took a guess:

                        Smoke Jumper: Same build as this pair on Warehouse http://store.whw.jp/?pid=41993162
                        Sole: Vibram 700
                        Hardware: All Brass Eyes
                        Height: 6"
                        Lace Design: Plain Toe
                        Top: Rolled Top
                        Midsole: Single
                        Size - Width: E
                        Leather Liner: No Thanks
                        Last: Standard
                        Upper (Shaft) Leather: Black Dress
                        Toe Vamp Leather: Black Dress
                        Toe Cap Leather Color: Does not apply
                        Celastic Toe Box: Single Celastic Toe
                        Edge: Brown
                        Steel Toe: No Thanks
                        Toe Cap: No Thanks
                        Counter Leather: Black Smooth

                        Since WH has another Smoke Jumper, specifically on the Semi Dress last, my guess is that these are standard Smoke Jumpers but with a lowered heel, single midsole and celastic toe which give it a slimmer yet bulbous look.

                        Thanks!

                              Agree - it's a look some folks would go for, it's a different look.  check this one, extreme example, SJ with vibram100… https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151999717002281&set=o.198093005548&type=3&theater

                                    Damn, I do like that flat toe (assume thats a soft toe on D's BH?).  Looking at mine again… what's another 1/4"? it think it would be OK...

                                      Thanks everyone, appreciate the help! For reference, here's the pair WH is calling a Smoke Jumper on Semi Dress (ie: Bounty Hunter):
                                      http://store.whw.jp/?pid=47912275

                                      And the original pair being worn (not listed as Semi Dress):
                                      http://www.whw.jp/style/2012/03/20120327_1.html

                                      Pretty sure the original ones I posted are just bounty hunters with a lowered heel. That settles it!
