White's Boots
-
Thanks!
Yeah, I LOVE both the CXL and the dress leather. It was pretty tough deciding what to go with on my new pair. In the end CXL won out, but I honestly don't think I would have been let down either way.

Thinking about speccing a pair of Bounty Hunters or Wesco Packers… too. many. options!!!

Just read this article on White's boots and found it informative. Touches on the different build qualities, the expansion into Japan, the shrinking markets in the US. Written from a retailer perspective. Unfortunately it doesn't show the date it was written; most likely before last year's acquisition.

Just inquiring about the sizing of White's boots. I have the Viberg IHVB-04 (the 310 last) in 6.5 US, they fit me pretty well even with socks and insoles (if a bit snug). However AFAIK Viberg's size pretty large, I wear a size 7 in Wolverine 1000 mile (I think I can fit into a 6.5 1K as well, but then I wouldn't be able to use wool sucks and insoles). I wanna get a pair of White's semi-dress soon but I'm kinda unsure about sizing, would I be OK with a size 7 US?
I go brannock device -.5 and one width larger. Leaves plenty of room for thicker socks but not swimming in the boots either.

A few fit pics in my newly acquired Whites boots. Cheers @Friday
I will, obviously, wear trousers / jeans with my Whites boots

Leg wear will just ruin the look!

Cheers @Jordan23 for the White's Bounty Hunter Brown Smooth Size 9 E
- I too am a convert… Those are great specimens you have there. Interesting to see the brown dress and black cxl side-by-side, same camera, same light.
