                Thanks davito, sabergirl & cutlasshound. I think I may have a few pairs incoming. For less than one pair of Whites or Vibergs on the used market. Will maybe start a thread but most definitely will report back. . . .

                    I will look forward to seeing some firsthand info.  Since they're made here in my adopted country of Mexico, I'm especially curious.

                      Wait till you see what i got.

                      I don't think I've  been this excited about footwear since my 1st pair of  Viberg's.

                          went to gentry in hipster paradise bklyn. last time i saw so many beards i was talking about purim with my rabbi homie.

                          great value for your money.  can't talk about the items being made ethically or anything until i do some actual research.  here are a few images just cause a picture is worth a thousand words:

                          Promise will get better images up in the next few days, just been keeping weirder than usual hours & so you know you left with late night images with crappy light & patron thoughts.

                          oh here are 2 of the pairs i grabbed on gentry's site:

                          http://gentrynyc.com/collections/sale/products/pistolero-side-loop-engineer-brown
                          http://gentrynyc.com/collections/pistolero/products/pistolero-side-loop-engineer

                          they are worth so much more than even their full retail price reflects . . .

                            Those lace up boots are great looking.

                            I've owned a couple of pairs of boots that were made in Guanajuato, and the quality is very good.  Glad you like what you found.

                              People

                              If I got the two-tone round & the flat laces.  What lengths would you buy?

                                thanks for un-monday'ing the links, chris.

                                lace ups are called 6" cap toe lace ups & they are comfy out the box & a great boot to look at.  after taking them around the block a few times will report back.

                                G, what length benjo's you thinking of?  they got 34", 48", & 54".  maybe best to go with the 54"  too long is better than too short. . . or just play it safe with the 48" . . .

                                  Two tone standard leather laces, as seen in eg. Red Wings and Oakstreets?..

                                    I know what lengths they do and they actually do a 36 too.  BUT, my view is that 54 is not long enough.  I can't even lace a pair of service boots up properly (let alone a Smoke Jumper) with a 54, but that may just be my overly large instep, hence the question.

                                    So let's try again.  Forget what length laces Benjo's make, what length laces would you buy if you could?

                                      For my Red Wing 877's I need laces at least 63", and I've been searching for a pair of two tone round, so these would be an option for me if you can get the longer lengths

                                        How big a price difference is there?.. Cause you can just cut these to size… I always do that... So maybe just get the longest ones and only those?..

                                          Great idea.  There is no real price difference. Let me investigate that…..
