        Its not so much the honey that makes them gross. I think its the combo of double mid sole AND the honey lugs. Makes the bottoms look huge like platform shoes

        totally agree… the doubles soles + vibram 100 = overkill

          White's Classic Workboots in brown Horween Chrome Exel with Vibram 430 mini vib sole. They don't look that new anymore since that CRX leather is picking up marks faster then light.  😢 Best boots I ever had.  🙂

                  Feck that, why would you even dream of doing this:

                  Christy Crepe can be added but are not stock and must be upcharged.

                          How would White's obtain - or be allowed to build on a "Boss" last?!? I imagine White's and Wesco are somewhat friendly rivals, co-existing in the same space and all (just guessing) - but for White's to build a boot on Wesco's proprietary last at a 1/3 of the cost seems kind of outrageous… That can't be right???

                            Wesco dose steel shank and White’s dose an iron leather one which I believe is preferable because it doesn’t rust, flexes better, and is less prone to fatigue. Maybe that explains the price…

                                  Do anyone know if its possible to ship some Hukurokuju buckles to Whites for some nice Nomad Engineers?

                                    Got a strong feeling you'd have to order a standard pair, then make the modifications…

                                      JCM, you can send in your own leather to White's, never asked about buckles but will and post back. Would be a nice to know for the nomad.

                                        EastWest, do keep us posted. The nomads are a hell of a nice looking engineer boot. However my understanding is that Whites have been dicks about doing most mods to them (eg a 10" shaft, roller buckles, longer instep straps). Wasn't till recently that they would even do em in a soft toe. A shame because they are a great 50s styled engineer and you can get them in black cxl (like daizawagy's, whose also rockin the soft toe 😉 )

                                          Great job. These are looking pretty close to perfect, IMO…

                                          ...actually, wait... I love everything about these.

                                            I emailed Kyle about a year ago about supplying my own buckles for a pair of Nomads, and he said White's wasn't accepting any modifications. That may have changed in that year tough.
