White's Boots

[aho]

Sugar Mountain, that's how I read the article as well. I guess this is all over-speculation and maybe we're all reading to deep into things; time will ultimately tell!

[Sugar Mountain]

What would be the point of these message boards if not for a little over-speculation and reading too deeply into things?

[Bluegrass]

Ha!  Very good point!!

[aho]

^Helps me get through the day in all honesty!

Here's a pic of my 7" LTT SJ's next to 8" Plain Toe's to get back on track…Can't remember if I already posted? My bad if I did!

[Bluegrass]

Nice.  Black, black cxl, black dress??  Whatcha got there?

[Anesthetist]

Even if you did double post, boots like these deserve it. Just beautiful.

[aho]

Thanks guys…Black CXL on the LTT's, Black Smooth on the Plain Toe's!

[Bluegrass]

Aho are your LtTs also on the SJ last? they look a bit less square than the plain toes.  Just curious if you did those in a SD/Bounty Hunter.  And are both hard toes (celastic)?

[JCMx800]

Maybe they are just non celastic???

[aho]

Might just be the angle but I see what you're saying…They are SJ last (I don't believe you can do LTT on non-SJ lasts?) and both are soft toe.

A while back someone asked for a side shot of this pair...sorry it took me forever!:

Good golly, I wish I had some British tan in my collection!

Bounty Hunters after about 40 or 50 wears.  I love 'em…

Boots look great. They blue?
Any particular reason u left in the kiltie but cut the frayed end off?

Thanks.  They are black CXL – they do look a little bluish in the pic, but less so in real life.

I liked the way the tongue protectors made them fit around the instep, but didn't like the kiltie part so I cut them off with a pair of scissors!  I also cut back some of the bellows tongue on each side so that they are now essentially semi-attached as an SD would be.  It solved my ankle rubbing problems immediately and made the boots so much more pleasant to wear...

A couple of recent White's acquisitions.

Bullhide SD on standard last.

Brown Horsehide SD on #38 swing last.

[Bluegrass]

Nice - esp. love those 2-tones!

[tod]

@AndyO, any chance you could do a top down shot of the Swing last?  They look good..

I'll get a photo in daylight tomorrow, showing the boots in comparison from above.

Great boots @AndyO

Few days in and I'm loving my sienna water buffalos, double leather sole.
