Some of you may have seen these on another board, but here are my brand new SJs, along with very old Chippewas and not so old OSB Trench boots:

Thanks Rafa.  Good to hear from you…  I hope you are well, and that your horsehide Vibergs are well too (which I still sometimes like to think of as MY horsehide Vibergs!).

Nevermind. Great boots. The first ones could be something for me.

Brown Dress BH broken in nicely, love them.

[Bluegrass]

Love the brown dress…

^^ Very cool.  Nice to see the brown dress on Bounty Hunters for a change rather than just SDs.  Looks great.

My interest in White's Begins to re-ignite. Might be posting some stupiud questions the next days…. Can anybody compare the black leathers in Terms of weight & quality? I'm looking for a heavyweight hide, preferably not too shiny or structured, so Bullhide is ruled out.

Black smooth or waxed rough out
Or the black silicone, ask the urbanwoodsman

[Megatron1505]

Black dress is what you need Flo, it's tough can take a shine or be dulled down, hard wearing, versatile and breaks in beautifully. My favourite boot leather ever!

[Megatron1505]

My Bounty Hunters in black dress and rough out, just over a year of wear.

Looking good with wear Mega and congrats on your court jestre management appointment! Max, Black Dress lined or oil tan/ smooth or cxl if you're happy to give them some love from time to time. Black otter is v nice as well but quite stiff to begin with.

How does black CXL age? My brown CXL Indy boots scratch easily and show up a lighter brown. What colour comes through when the black equivalent takes knocks?

[Jordan23]

^Light Brown! Leather is not deeply coloured.

Enjoy ya addiction!

[Max Power]

Thanks gents!

Some Features I want:

6-7" height
"Bump" Toe or the like, not a flat one
Standard heel size, maybe like the one Jordan posted, but only one layer of leather
Curved heel
Not sure about the sole yet, simple and just a little profile would be best

All These Options can get quite confusing…Would the Classic Work boot be my best Option?

[EastWest]

For a bump toe max the work boot/ c461 last is the best option, it can vary on the SD last.

Thanks again!
