White's Boots
-
@SKT Thanks, man! I prefer the 55—it hugs my foot perfectly. The arch is just right: supportive without feeling like I'm standing on a ladder rung. The 4811 took the longest to break in; its arch felt drastically high, even after some wear. They say the main difference is the toe box, but I noticed the arch difference the most.
-
@LittleRockRaw ahh…good to know. I’m always curious about their many lasts. Enjoy those boots

@bluemantra I love them, but mine destroys my feet. I will sell them.
This sole is shit imo, the shoe does not bend it is so annoying. I love the style but I definetely need to sell them.
-
@spitfiredealer I'm breaking in a pair in red dog rough out and find they take some getting used to. I've never found them uncomfortable though, just different to walk in and I'm aware of the arch but like it.

@GoodtimeJohnny Awesome pics

@Denimhead-0 thanks brother you too! Seeing you out on the bike is making me jealous it’s almost time!

Anyone getting anything from the Whites semi annual sale? I just got some black CXL Cykel 4014s. 18-20 week lead time but it’s all good. They were a decent deal
Less is more
-
@Choko Great choice! I'm also tempted by the revamped engineers but I'm going to hold off for now.

Was thinking about the C350-CS in the Red Dog leather. I’ve always really liked the look of that roughout leather. Also, I think my feet are telling me that I need to start wearing some laced boots to work.
-
@northsouthdenimguy i love those CS boots. I might pick up some 350-LTTCS too. If they’re on sale then it’s okay lol. I hear you about wearing laced boots though. Engineers look sweet but they’re not supportive

I got the C350 cs black double shot and they are great. Sturdy boots these White's.
The only thing that annoys me is that the leather part of the insole ( at the back ) that starts midfoot inside the right boot started to peel off a bit quite early when taking off the boots during the break-in period. I wonder if anyone else experienced this? I wonder If I should use some sort of glue for it. -
Yes, simple enough to do with a contact adhesive.

Edited: Just got home from a trip and my White’s 4014 Cykel boots finally came after a 4 month wait. They’re perfect but I’m not sure if should keep them or not. I only have ever worn red wings and I know the construction difference is huge. These things are tanks. I know it takes time for boots to break in. But other dudes on here with whites nomads or cykels, did they hurt at first? The length is great but the sides and arch is pretty uncomfortable. Plus they make all of my 888s look like tight pants even with the buckles up top all the way in. Just looking for advice! -
@Choko
Did you order these during the sale? I have a pair of Max Shaaf engineers I have been waiting for. -

@Choko Thanks for the update, hopefully this month.
