Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

Brossian Wingor · Mar 11, 2013

Are these boots heavy? How do they feel for day to day wear?

fuzzyearlobes · Mar 11, 2013

you get used to the weight, but they are heavy as hell when you first handle them.

I put each of the SD's on the kitchen scale before heading out to UPS this morning. Each boot weighed in at 2 lbs 7 oz.

I'd also like to know the difference between red dog smooth vs red dog oil. Thanks!

Anyone have any insight on this?
I had a long day in the snow and lost almost all color around the side. Not worried about looks but thought to ask now before unless treating someway is advised.

You can use fiebings edge dressing in brown to correct that

That's weird. I've been stomping through snow and slush several times and haven't lost any of the edge dressing.

Odd. I spent 6 to 8 hours hiking in the snow and didn't have a single issue. Wore them continusely all night, got home, brushed them, when I woke up in the morning they looked like this.

Can anyone with a semi dress with all eyelets let me know if you can get your foot in and out without having to remove the laces from the top one or two eyelets? I like the look of all eyelets better but would rather have the functionality of speed hooks if I had to re-lace the all eyelet boots everytime I put them on.

I don't have to, I loosen them up a bit and they come off. First few days were tight until they started breaking in. Here is a typical dismount.

Definitely full canvas only

Half canvas is fine

Really don't care

Depends on fabric

Depends on price
