@Finkster:

Baker Shoe's doesn't ship internationally - right?
Can't find any informations regarding this on their homepage.

They ship via FedEx!

And I just paid +-25€ customs to em…

@Jordonf9 I really love the "arch ease" arch support.  White's are my most comfortable lace ups by far… of course opinions are like belly buttons - everybody has one.

i agree my Whites are not the best looking but are my most comfortable boots.

@Jordonf9:

So for anyone who has Wesco and White's….all day on the feet work, is one any better than the other? Or both great?

I love White's work boot, wish they had a cordovan or burgundy though. I am also so tempted by the upcoming walking boot Giles is getting in from Wesco.

Just found this site...anyone deal with them? They have burgundy cxl

Bakers are great.  Their customer service is great and Kyle is very helpful.

They will look great!

I've bought from Baker's before, I'm in the UK, around $50 if I recall.

Whites Hathorn Explorer Romeo
not bad for the price $78 at Whites website.

Love my Whites.  Burgundy chromexcel bounty hunter, black and red bull hide lace to toe bounty hunter, British tan with toe cap chromexcel semi dress.  The semi dress fit 1/2 size longer than the bounty hunter.  Should have asked for the bounty hunter last.

[khaki8]

Love the British Tan with toe caps…

[Bluegrass]

I need some black lace ups ("need" used very loosely in this case)… Any opinions, black cxl vs. black dress or other black leather options?  Thinking of a black semi-dress with brown edge everything else pretty standard - cuban heel, standard trim, cut top, no lining, vibram 430 or commando... I'm f***ing paralyzed not knowing which leather. Any thoughts/opinions appreciated...

@4c is that a b/w photo or are yours for real black?

[Megatron1505]

@Bluegrass , black dress every time over cxl, dress ages really well whereas I find cxl to age a little artificially. The dress leather doesn't mark as easy either.

Your other options sound good too.

[Bluegrass]

Thx @Megatron1505 black dress it is.  now I'm waffling between LtT Farmer Rancher or SD  :-\

I dont't have any LtT or Cap toe…

[Megatron1505]

I've tried similar boots and found that the SD hold its appeal longer, a classic boot that can be worn with anything.
