Fekking brilliant!

I am definitely getting a double leather sole for my next pair 

[Megatron1505]

Jus' chillin'

Thinking about getting another pair of Whites I love the Vintage boot in black w/ nickel hardware

[SpaceGnome]

that double sole looks unforgiving, as if it wont flex at all.

I was toying with having a triple sole.  Double sole - pah…...

[Megatron1505]

I'm also toying with the triple sole, it works ok if you have big feet, with small feet they look like Frankenstein boots.

One of my customers/friends is starting to import Whites int UK, his website is not complete yet, but PM me if you want his contact details…...

[SpaceGnome]

triple sole = insanity.

What's the mark up?..

[Giles]

His business Seul, not mine.  I have no idea.  I bought my pair from him and I paid more than had I purchased them from US (which I could have done easily).  But as you all know, that is what happens when you buy "out of country"….....

[Seul]

True, G. Just curious. Still need some god-dang White's Oxfords…

[Giles]

PM me for his co-ords

Guys, I need help on white's oxford sizing, I wear a size 8.5d in red wings, what size do I have to go for if I were to purchase the white's oxford?

[Megatron1505]

In my opinion (having worn both) the Whites are half a size bigger than the Red Wings.

[hectic]

^ I agree with Mega on this.

[Kikuchi]

So you're both saying that I should get a size 8?
I had a feeling you guys might say that, but now am sure.. Thanks!

[hectic]

Just a sec, I wear a 12 (US) in both Red Wing and Whites, the Whites are a little more roomy hence my comment. Depends on your preference - if your Whites build is very robust you may like a bit more room.

I have/had 4 pair of White's and probably 8 or more Red Wings. If someones experience with RW was with a moc toe boot then I guess I could agree the White's semi dress last may feel a half size bigger, but that RW moc toe is a narrow last. I will always buy my same size Red Wing as White's, 10.5D. I do not have a very voluminous foot but I am not a C width. Just my opinion. What Red Wings do you have?
