White's Boots
-
not a fan?
I thought you went with the #8 cxl on your contest boot?! :-\I was kidding. I went color 8 because everyone went natty. Actually I did both but, the color 8 is sick. Go for it!!!

I think natural CXL makes boots look like they've got more patina earlier. In a way, that feels like a shortcut, but I doubt the end result will look as cool as one of those standard White's leathers that evolve more slowly, but also more credibly.

i´m on the fence about white´s BH or SD…It`s all about ankle support. The BH is a higher boot, and the SD is really dressy...I know this sounds corny, but it does summarize things...

that's what I thought in first place

think I'm going with the SD, since dressy is what I like (when it comes to boots) and also I think the Sd is going to be more versatile and with a lot of different denim styles! the BH might look too bulky under a pair of 555's for example…

Sd are awesome

Good choice…there is a lot more "boot" in the BH...

So here I was blissfully ignorant to the joys of White's… sure have peaked at this thread from time to time and said, jeez those look nice but never fully appreciated them until killing a little time in the city yesterday pre-valentine's day dinner when I stumbled on a shoe store stocking White's and fecking hell, they're more amazing in real life than I would have ever imagined!
Ugh... wallet might lose this fight!
