        The tracing with accompanying measurement is the way to go. Who was to know that I would take two different boot sizes and they would be happy to make them that way for me?

            It certainly is, and just about as pricey as the world of Japanese denim, who needs tobacco and drug habits when you can blow all your stash on denim and leather  😉

                          In terms of evo? I certainly creases up exactly like that, and that is exactly why I've gone for it in my comp pair.

                          Dress over CXL every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

                              @TF, at your request.

                              My White's SD, owning about 4 years, wear unknown, haven't kept track they're in my everyday boot rotation.

                                      where have you got those cats paw soles though? guessing those were added afterwards during a resole!?

                                      think i'll go…
                                      black cxl,
                                      single midsole,
                                      vibram 430 mini vib sole,
                                      standard heel,
                                      1/4" lowered,
                                      brass (or black or antique) eyes&hooks

                                      that should do the trick! 🙂

                                        Yes, i was so lucky to have the previous owner have the CP soles and heels added, they are true vintage CP no repro.
                                        Sadly they're pretty much done now, so these need a resole, the nails on the heels are scratching the sidewalk.
                                        thinking of going with Vibram 705 or Biltrite halfsole and CP heels.

                                          That's a nice build.  Classic, really.  SD or BH?

                                            I have to say, I dislike the flimsy laces White's packs with the Semi-Dress. I have been looking for really (!) well made laces for a while, but so far, I have't found what I am looking for. Either they are too loosely knit (which makes them unravel and catch the hooks) and/or the ends splice too soon. Any recommendation?
