White's Boots

[erk]

So I had to send my LTT farmer ranchers in for a rebuild to a 10.5b on the left boot. As I thought it would be, the 10b was indeed too small.

so a little more than a month later I got my rebuilt left boot back…with the wrong sole. YES!

I am so pissed. I've already called white's and they're gonna give me some sort of ups ship code thing and I guess they're gonna resole it with the 430 mini lug, but I'm still livid.

at least people who are curious can see what brown smooth looks like before and after obenauf's application. even months after the fact.

^A terrible mix up but hopefully it'll be resolved quickly by White's! Not much consolation but it's a beautiful build for sure…

[Concret]

Hey guys, someone any idea what kind of leather is this one?

[joona]

It is Horween's natural chromexcel after some wear, stunning pair.

[Concret]

Thanks! Those are Nicholas pair, right? Indeed  stunning.

[Bluegrass]

yes, I too think it is Nicholas Hollows nat. cxl BHs - i've seen this image elsewhere.

I've been following their ebay account for some time, the boots are nicely priced but the international shipping costs sadly are unbelievable.

I contacted them about that and got a better price ..

[Mich]

Are you located in Europe?
If so what did they charge you if i may ask?

[Megatron1505]

There are two shipping option on every auction, the USPS rate is MUCH cheaper than the UPS rate. I have bought from them before and the service is spot on.

[Mich]

I did notice that indeed, still a pretty steep rate at almost 90 bucks imo.

Brand new Whites for half price…what is going on there? And a blue bullhide - never been seen before? Factory samples or rejects?

[Bretro_]

Any interest in factory installed Biltrite soles and Cats Paw heels? Kyle hinted to me at the possibility of a Bakers exclusive… Don't know bout you, but I'm game

[ben2t]

White's on ebay are auctions and the amount you saw were just starting bids, if you are willing to pay north of $300 then theres a great chance of winning one.

[ben2t]

Here one sample that is on my watch list with 7bids!  http://m.ebay.com/itm/310862410359?nav=WATCHING_ENDED

[Bluegrass]

Someone help me please, remind me what a Farmer Rancher is??  What last is that?  I notice a lot of the White's River boots are FRs…

And Ben2, I like that Blue/tan.  very nice combination.
