      Well, true that. Consciously I knew it wouldn't look good.

      Thanks guys.

        I wrestled with the same thing Lsash.  Ended up doing the "I'll just get everything over time so I know for sure" approach… so I have White's, Trickers and Alden boots but only wear the trickers and aldens into the office, the whites are just too hardcore for the office.

          i saw a pic on baker's Facebook page of kyle's wedding - it was he and all his groomsmen in matching white's semi-dress boots with their tuxes!

          I wear boots to work every day unless it's a trip to Indianapolis corp. HQ.  We have a business casual attire policy which includes denim, and I take full advantage.  But even if I have to wear dress pants I have some nice Billy Reid wing-tip ankle boots that work quite well.

            Any good comparison pics of leather liners? Google search comes up with a few cream and black, but I'm wondering how brown and red look…

                  Dood! So, the farmer rancher is basically a soft toe SJ on the #55 last, right? Those in British tan?

                                  After months of lurking, here's my first pair of white's. It's not a custom boot - I had to get a stock pair on very short notice so I could have them shipped to my hotel during the week I spent in Vegas for the CES. That way I got around the enormous customs fees and shipping costs that would apply if I bought them directly from Germany.

                                  8" Farmer/Rancher in brown smooth, after a first few miles of break-in:

                                      Any blisters?

                                      Yes! My right little toe looked pretty bad after two days :-\ Stomping through the CES in new Whites was abit brutal after all. I then changed back into my Thorogood Lace-To-Toe Roofers for the rest of the show. With two layers of full grain rough-out, they're not exactly sissy shoes, but they felt like slippers in comparison 🙂
                                      My right foot is wider than the left one, so some initial discomfort
                                      wasn't unexpected… I sized 0.5 down from my usual 13D to a 12.5D. Length is perfect and with some more break-in these will be a great fit eventually. So I'm pretty happy with the outcome of my sizing lottery...
                                      I'll make some fit pics next time I wear them.

                                            I have no experience with White's boots. I heard they run a little large.  I'm thinking of taking a gamble on a pair on ebay.

                                            What size am I in White's if I'm a US 8.5D in Chippewa, Danner, etc.?

                                            Here's the pair I'm looking at: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Whites-boots-/281250005473?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item417bce81e1

                                            They are an 8D.

                                            Thanks!
