They look rugged, specially in forest. Nice.

Beautiful boots! Thanks for sharing.

I like the flat laces. Dig the stealth look

@cathpah , serious boots there!

Thanks for the laces feedback. Like most folks, I've always liked the look of the leather laces on black boots, but I take andy b's point about the old school workboot look you get with the black. Both are good looks, which makes it hard to decide. No doubt I will switch back and forth..

Beautiful boots, @cathpah

Midsole color looks great...you inspired me to e-Mail Kyle to have the same treatment done to mine, which should arrive in the next couple of weeks...

Agreed. Really nice and the edge dressing is a great detail

Those look great! The 9" height works well, and doesn't look awkward the way the 7" boots sometimes do. Also, the block heels are really kept in check, unlike a lot of them that extend a good 3/16" out. Has the toe box of the distressed pair flattened out with wear, or are they soft-toes?

Nope...those are single celastic as well, so I guess they've just flattened a bit with wear and abuse.

Leather laces, or flat black..? The flat black!

The #8 CXL looks really nice.

For anyone new to ordering White's, I put together a bit of a guide over on /r/goodyearwelt. It's a work in progress and I'm sure I made a lot of mistakes (feel free to point those out), but hopefully it'll be helpful to some of you.

^ excellent work! Good on you!

Man I remember how confused I was when I started learning about how to order... A guide like this would have been priceless!

I ordered some of the now "in"famous Huberds and tried it on some RW boots this weekend. It darkened them significantly. Here is a pic of my White's false tongue with half treated (once) half not

Just thought the pic might be informative for those like me with little treatment experience.

Definitely full canvas only

Half canvas is fine

Really don't care

Depends on fabric

Depends on price
