White's Boots

[aho]

Take my post with a grain of salt as the feeling of a "perfect fit" is completely subjective, dependent on one's own personal feel but fwiw, my two cents are that whites should fit snug in the heel (literally cupped in type feel), the arch will fall into place right on the arches, and you'll have plenty of room in the toe. I do have the ability to "slide" forward in mine when not laced up, but the arch and lacing up should stop this from happening. I have about a thumb's width from the toe of the boot to my actual toe inside and they fit like a dream.

As aho describes is exactly how my White's fit, and I thought they were the most comfortable boots I've owned.

Anyone knows where to get a of the rack SD other than eastnwest and Imogene? Thanks. Also if I'm in between sizes 9-10US should I go with 9 or a 8.5 to get the fit as described by aho.. TAA.

And Grahame Fowler sometimes has small in-store sales on their Whites and Trickers. And other good stuff. Just a matter of timing and stock.

^Friday isn't local, so  Baker's or whitesriver @ebay are the quick "to go" choices for US sellers,  imo.

as for sizing,  i go with my Viberg UK = Whites SD US …  ie, for the length. 
i'm on the US E-side, so i can only go Viberg 2005 last or wider__ no 2030 for me.

Thats the problem, sizing table says I could need a L, but Giles is wearing a XL in the pics. We will know it in 21 days  :-\

^^very cool boots

I see you specced it with half slip. What exactly does that do? It's the only White's option I don't understand…

[Giles]

Thanks for the quick replies guys.

BrownIcon is correct though not local so best bet is ebay and bakers. If I'm getting this right, bakers should have ready stock which I assume stated as 'ready stock available'?

Hi Friday,

2332 is a Semi Dress with Half Composition sole.

375 MVLTT is a lace to toe SJ with Vibram outsole….I think.

Won these Outdoorsman boots today for $195. This winter has been pretty bad and I'm glad I'll finally have a quality pair of waterproof boots. I had a pair of these in brown awhile ago but they were too small.
