      i feel like the kilties make the boot look strangely small.  like they throw the proportions off.  i can't quite explain it.

      i mean on my pair of course…. they actually look awesome on yours den1mhead

        Without.  Definitely a cleaner, less "Hey!  Check out my lumberjack boots!" vibe that way.

        same thought i had.

          Also agree on no kilties.  I think the fact that your sole isn't lugged makes the boot look less lumberjack-ish.  The big thing for me is the contrast between the color and texture of the two leathers.  If the kilties were the same leather as the boots I think they would look really good.  But regardless those boots look really clean without the kilties.

            Upon reflection I have worn kilties with my IHVB-03CT but now I wear them without and much prefer the cleaner look.
            However, I love my IH kilties with my Whites SJ's

                  😉

                  Apart from this, that I dislike kilties  (they look stupid & ugly in my eyes  😶  - but that's my opinion  😃 )
                  The shape of the boot looks a lot cleaner and smarter without this 'rags'.

                      If you do go with the false tongues, at least make sure to flip them over to the rough out side so that they match the leather of the boot.

                                  Whites Boots post dying of the toe cap, vamp and counter. Worn a few times now and with a few neutral polishes.
                                  The dye seems to have taken really well to the leather and at this point I couldn't be happier with the results.

                                    my thoughts were exactly the the opposite, go kilties!

                                            I have DRO from White's and think they look best left alone and allowed to age on their own. Nothing looks better after aging.
