Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

[spurs61]

I don't know the ounces, but the dress leather is definitely thinner than the oil tan. At the same, by all accounts it's pretty hardwearing, and will hold up better than CXL no doubt.

Agree with linafelt on this. My unlined brown dress BHs are definitely my lightest White's, but the brown dress leather wears tough, certainly doesn't scuff up as easily as CXL.

The White's EBay store is dangerous...I just wandered by and bought another pair of Packers...but under $225 including shipping, who can resist that?

What is going to be expensive is getting a horse to go with them.

Yep, all they do is eat and they aren't worth anything.............and you can't eat them!

You can eat them if you're French.

Horse is great if you want to make a pair of whites out of them like I did today

So how much was the shipping (to a US address, I suppose) - would be nice to know as I always see the super expensive shipping to DE based on my IP.

Now stay away from the 12C/D semi-dress and 12.5D smoke jumpers they are all mine

Interesting. I didn't know about this at all. Now for the sizing.

Shipping is between $20 amd $25 for ground within in Continental USA.

Quote: I also would recommend to avoid all 13B/C Semi-Dress and 13C/D Smokejumpers for obvious reasons

Hey now, I thought White's had stopped making boots in horse hide?...

Limited supply. We just made Bakers 5 pair of brown SD's. Turned out really nice.

You work for White's? That's great. We have so many questions...like the White's Oxford for the USA?
