White's Boots

^ You learn to roll your foot as you walk, but basically NCA is completely correct.

I am pursuing the double midsole for aesthetics as well…the boots look so much more substatial. So I guess the walking style in double mid sole would be a little different than a single sole, but wouldn't feel uncomfortable? Would it be like a pair of dress shoes or far less flexible. I would have thought the inflexibility of the sole would contribute to discomfort. I hope it doesn't feel like I am wearing shoes made of wooden sole. Is it possible to get a single leather midsole + rubber midsole + the undersole.

how are white's sized? I wear a US 12 in athletic shoes, and a 11.5 in red wing..
any suggestions?
Whats your brannock size? I would venture to guess that if you wear a 12 in athletic shoes, you would be a 11.5 on the brannock, and thus an 11.5 in Whites. However, its always best to trace and send them to Bakers or Whites.
Im a 10 on the Brannock, and wear a 10 in Whites. They are roomy though, and Im guessing I could go down a half size, but then my toe would just nick the side of the boot where it rounds out and I hate that, especially when your feet swell because of heat or being on them all day.

what is a "celastic toe box" and do i need it?
NO, you don´t need it…some guys do, some don´t! imo it´s just so your toe box keeps its shape instead off wearing out along with the rest of your boot!
here´s how a "standard" celastic toe box looks from the inside:
urb´s boot has a "single" celastic toe box:
and this pair has "no" celastic toe box:
new
worn
the celastic toe box option does give your toes a bit more room though (well, i guess) and if you want your toe box to still have that shape even after some months of wear, you might want to go for a "single" celastic toe box…if you like to have that "flat" look on your toe box, you might want to go without a celastic toe box! looks better imo and not that "bulky"...
