    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

     Baker's gets their oxfords from several sources. Mine were from Nick's but you can specify in the comments (at order) which source you would like. some leather combo's may not be available from different makers.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

     I really love my Nick's oxfords and am saving up for another pair to rotate for work. Can't wait to hear your comparisons between these and your whites. I have not tried the Hathron oxfords by white's which would be a more direct comparison. but for standing and walking the cushion from the...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

     I can second this. I wore my cxl bounty hunters as my primary work boots for 2 years at a sheet metal shop and they were beat to hell and lived to tell the tale. I posted pictures of them a year ago. here's what they looked like after a good cleaning. I only wear rough out leather now...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

     I don't think you will enjoy them James, they are more comparable to Redwing's or Chippewa's. Not a knock against these brands just White's, Wesco, Nicks are a level up in terms of comfort and craftsmenship. I have a pair of the mountain trails that are so wide they are unwearable without 2...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    my retro oxfords have the double midsole and it took a little while longer to break in. after wearing them all summer they are incredibly comfortable now. they are double leather so not sure how it would be with another sole. and i don't have the half slip either. but leather will eventually get...

    Nicks Boots

    They fit very close in size, the sole on the nicks and the lack of toe reinforcement on the whites gives the illusion that the nicks are roomier. I think size variation comes more from the socks i wear, thinner with the whites and heavier with the nicks so the nicks feel a little tighter. i tend...

    Nicks Boots

    exactly! I've worn danners, really high quality work boots, 3 pair of redwings, also well made and good looking, frye well made and good looking but none come close to the comfort I've experienced with both Nicks and White's. what I'm saying is that the quality is not going to be what say a...

    Nicks Boots

    This may be hard to believe but these are handmade work boot prices and that's what you are getting. An incredibly well made workboot made with work boot leathers. Whites offers French calf and a other exotic leathers so you could go that route. My two favorite boots have been my nick's oxfords...
