      New cougars are in….the "dark brown" french calf turned out a lot lighter than I envisioned....

      Whites cougar.
      6"
      Turn up last - C641
      British tan upper
      Brown french calf vamp and counter
      tan leather lining (i highly recommend this as it is free and absolutely beautifully done)
      Pull loops yes
      single celastic toe
      Brass eyelets and hooks
      Roll top
      Bellows tongue
      Single midsole with halfslip-natural
      Vibram 2021 sand
      No toe cap
      Close sole trim

      Just a note for those that have trouble getting their whites on and off: You can actually order a different style of tongue called a "bellows" which for me eliminated all problems. You can see an example of in the far left pair of the topdown pic above.

          They look great! How do These run sompared to other boots you have? I'm still contemplating getting those or another pair of Oxfords.

            They are a nice pair, the sole works nicely on the c461, nice choices. @Max Power if your Oxfords are D width you'll want to size down a half size. The Oxford last is narrower than any others.

              Thank you! It's an E width…so should I go for the same size and width?

                Yeah, those look really comfy! Can picture a build within rough-out looking good too

                  @Max Power I'd go same size but stick with a D personally, the last is more generous than the Oxfords and as they are stitch down they will always give in width quickly if snug to begin with.

                        They are really impressive. The 641 last has the bridge width of the whites i have in the swing last but with a more sculptured toe. So basically they are just as comfortable as a swing last without the mickey mouse look.

                        My experience with whites boots is that they run wide. I am an E width in wescos but with whites usually purchase a D.

                        One thing ill say is the british tan is gorgeous and has a really high depth of color that i imagine will patina beautifully.

                              Ha! I agree, they are ugly in a good way - wrinkled up, big old toe, tractor tread sole…. and that's the okinawa/sugar denim, love those snow flakes! 🙂
