White's Boots

Those look awesome–is that brown cxl?
Thanks!
they are brown smooth/oiled leather, with a coat of obenauf's LP.
they looked close to brown cxl don't they? -
Dress brown lightens up quick when punished

Those look like my Navy Vibergs G-San is getting built for me.
And your Vibergs will be cheaper; if my math is correct, those navy White's are over $1000. Yikes.

I'm doing them with the red danite sole. Pretty stoked. -

bahahaha
Just had to correct this.
If those are just standard White's Navy Chromexcel 5" Semi-Dress Boots then they cost $389.95 in the US if you get them from Baker's. Which I'm assuming is less than half of what custom IH/Viberg boots will probably run.

-
Yup…that's about half
-
Yeah, all I did was convert the yen to dollars. I know White's aren't anywhere near that expensive for us in the US. I didn't bother to check and see if it was possible to do that exact build, or if it was some Japanese market exclusive. Nonetheless, I won't be buying a pair any time soon. I've got two pairs of boots coming my way before the end of the year, so I'm done for a while.

two-tone horween #8 and black cherry water buffalo SD's inbound!

You're a Whites monster NCA
Can't wait for pics, how many pairs is that now? -
the fifth of those i keep, the ninth also counting those i've sold. meanwhile all other shoes just feel like they have no footbed support whatsoever. My RW's especially, but also my Wesco boots.
-
it's in this thread already.

I'm still trailing you by a couple still then man, i've owned 7, got 4, no plans to buy or sell any more though.
