    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I have some BH Red dog lowers and British tan uppers I need to send in to Baker's anyways to be resoled... Though they would be similar to Andy's.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I once purchased at 12D centennial hiker off white's ebay only to find out when they arrived I should have asked about sizing! I wear a 12C in SDs. They were far too short and I could barely force my feet in. If I remember correctly when I asked later you want to size up a half size from SDs...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    On the Red/crayon color liner: Be prepared for some staining of your socks initially. Both of my pairs have that lining, but now that they are older there is no staining unless i clean the inside out. But really how often do you look at your socks! Sole choice: I've had both the 700 on HH...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Sorry it took a bit to post some new pictures of these boots as I had to clean them up a bit. Notes on the lighting I have pretty bright and somewhat blue-tinged office lighting so the color is a deeper red in person especially outdoors. For reference of others: These are Leather: Brown...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Shhh!!! Don't tell anyone. I've been waiting for a while to see how low they can go! The real reason I haven't picked them up yet is because I'd rather spend a bit more and just get something with a leather like water buffalo or french calf.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I generally wear Smart Wool medium weight socks, but sometimes I wear the the form fit heavy-weight versions when it gets below 32F. I have lace-to-toe bounty hunters so I'm pretty sure they are not too tight around my feet, but my feet get quite cold from "under the sole" as Royteane said.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    What insoles do you use for insulation? My biggest complaint for my bounty hunters is that my feet get cold so fast in the winter.

    Fasthall, you could check out Nick's boots for brown horsehide. http://nicksboots.com/colors/ Of course the wait time is a whole lot longer... I am glad I got my White's horsehide when I did it is a really awesome leather.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I know folks are always looking for pictures of "well used" White's and I saw a whole bunch show up on Ebay. There are 7 pairs ranging from SDs in brown dress, three pair of centennial hikers, 2 pair of packers in brown oil? and black oil tan?, and one farmer rancher...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    @phidauex , below are a couple of pictures of my two-tone bounty hunters in red dog and british tan that might interest you. I have a little over one year of wear on them as well as one year on the brown horsehide semi-dress in the photos. The first photo is after I cleaned both pairs with...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    My horsehide boots are one year old and through that time I have only had temporary water stains. These stains came out with time and brushing. Eventually, I decided that water would sink in far too fast instead of beading off the leather. So before a trip to San Francisco I decided to apply...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    What are your thoughts on the White's Centennial Hiker? I have used my BHs a lot for hiking, but have found them lacking a bit since I have a 430 sole instead of the full lug.
