I think the additional height, and the added heel counter of a smokejumper add too much required shell and extra stitching to be feasible.
I think Baker's has some shell left. But as mentioned, the only available build is a Semi-dress in the 55 last, and you have to order it through Kyle.
I would guess that the Shell that White's will be offering will most likely have to be ordered directly through White's. I would guess that it will have similar resistrictions as what Baker's is offering, and will only have stock builds available, similar to the MP line, but only Sambam knows.
Here are a couple pictures Baker's sent me after they put dainite soles on my BHs. I think it turned out great..
Yup. I actually asked them to mimic the taper of the viberg heel. I think it turned out great.. I will post more pictures once they ship these out and i get them.That did turn out really nice. Did you get them to do a tapered heel, more like viberg? I'm going to be due for heel and sole within the year probably and I really like how the heel tapers like that.
Nicks ... mostly build clamp downs now like our hathorns.

We are slowly building the site. Our stocked items will be put on the site first. We are working on it as fast as we can@sambam One thing about the website that is confusing: When you click the link for "shop customizable boots" it takes you to a page that has a handful of non-customizable boots and a bunch of accessories (laces, grease, etc). Is something wrong..?
To be honest, I already had a pair of Farmer Ranchers on the C461 and I really liked the fit so I just stuck with it. I believe the Bounty Hunters are on the 55 last. I've tried some on before but for my feet, the C461 is a better fit. I also have a pair of original Packers in 10.5D that fit well.That's a boot! What made you go with Famer Rancher instead of the others like a Bounty Hunter etc?
ythmnstry -- I really like how your new boots look! Very sharp presence.
Can you tell me what you think of that sole option? I think why I have resisted that series so much, is being soured by the RW version of the vibram version. I have never experience it in person - is it hard, soft, squishy, firm, grippy ... ?
Cheers!
