      Agreed! - awesome black RO's …
      A pair of White's is still absent in my boots collection.  😎 reflection

      White's are so comfortable - the "arch-ease" is genius imo.  Most comfortable boots I own by far.

        ok… now i need sizing advice guys.  I have a 9D in the SJ but I'm gathering that the Oxford fits very differently.  Generally get a 9-9.5 in RW (9 with no added insole, 9.5 with).  9 in Alden TruBalance.

        any and all advice appreciated @Max Power @Megatron1505 @JCMx800

          I can only advice I'm a 10,5E in the Whites Oxfords. All my RW's are 10,5D, my Viberg Service Boots are a 10. Hope this helps.

              @riffblaster general , the oxfords fit about half a size up from SD's Nate.

                  Riff, agree with Mega above, length is similar but a D is narrow so half size up or 1 width wider.

                    thanks.  my pair of SJ's is actually the distressed roughout pair you did with no toebox in a 9D.  What do you recommend for the oxford?

                      Stay the same length, just wider, E should give you enough. The thick distressed leather with the 2021 makes it so stiff to begin with but with Black RO they should be a bit more pliable out of the box. 9E.

                                        Here are my three pair of White's:
                                        Semi Dress in black Horween Chrome Excel with a single leather outsole, Cuban heels.

                                        Then two pair of Bounty Hunters, both with Cuban heels.
                                        6" medallion toe cap in brown Dress leather with white liners and half soles. All eyes with no hooks.. I am not a fan of hooks.

                                        And my newest.. 7" Bounty Hunters, but lace to toe and also full eyes. It makes it take a lot longer to put them on and take them off, but I find it easier to tension and more comfortable. Plus they just look better IMHO. These ones are also black Crome Excel, with black leather lining.

                                        They all look really clean still as I take super good care of them. Brushed after every wear, then treed to rest.

                                          New cougars are in….the "dark brown" french calf turned out a lot lighter than I envisioned....

                                          Whites cougar.
                                          6"
                                          Turn up last - C641
                                          British tan upper
                                          Brown french calf vamp and counter
                                          tan leather lining (i highly recommend this as it is free and absolutely beautifully done)
                                          Pull loops yes
                                          single celastic toe
                                          Brass eyelets and hooks
                                          Roll top
                                          Bellows tongue
                                          Single midsole with halfslip-natural
                                          Vibram 2021 sand
                                          No toe cap
                                          Close sole trim

                                          Just a note for those that have trouble getting their whites on and off: You can actually order a different style of tongue called a "bellows" which for me eliminated all problems. You can see an example of in the far left pair of the topdown pic above.
