White's Boots

@Megatron1505:

…some William Lennons with a triple leather sole...

Those the ones you got from me?  If so, they were significantly more stiff when new.

This thread needs to redneckognize!  Here are my White's Outdoorsman paired with Levi's STF 501.  The only thing I don't like about them is that the grain of the Red Dog leather hides the White's stamp, but worse things could happen!

Been in touch with everybody's favorite White's dealer.  He says, "If anyone is interested in getting fitted into White’s Boots, Kyle of Baker’s Shoes will be in the Los Angeles area Monday November 12th – Please email orders@bakershoe.com if you’d like to set up an appointment. Location TBA.”

Anyone into it?

if i lived in LA I would absolutely do it.  A proper measurement can save you a million headaches.

Thanks for breaking them in then

What Lennon boots have you got Megs? And how does the sizing compare with your regular UK shoe size?

I've got a pair of their WW1 boots on order as I'm currently running desperately short of footwear. I'm a bit nervous that they won't fit properly.

[Megatron1505]

I have the Derby Boots, the sizing is pretty standard to UK shoes/ boots, the build quality is extremely good.

[Chris]

Agreed; William Lennon boots are an excellent value, especially for UK buyers, since shipping is free for you guys.

[Graeme]

Thanks.

I'm a UK 13 (US 14), but found the size 13 Derby boot to be a shade bit, and the size 12 to be a bit small. I'm getting a pair built in 12 1/2, which is completely non-standard.

I'll put up details when they arrive.

Coming up to the end of week 6.

[Megatron1505]

A guy who I had never spoken to before at work today said to me " I don't know if they're the coolest boots I've ever seen, or the stupidest". Thats kind of the response they get regularly

I can vaguely remember the state of mind in which I would have thought White's are totally outlandish footwear. That was before I saw the light, which e.g. the security people at the airport are apparently still ignorant of.
