White's Boots

[urbanwoodsman]

I feel bad for anyone who slept on those. $360 for cordovan boots. Wow. Wish they were my size.

[Chris]

Yeah, someone got one hell of a deal.

@Certified
Do you have the same size in your SJs and your SDs? How's the difference going from one to the other? I'm asking because I have a pair of Farmer Ranchers (SJ last) which are a perfect fit and my next pair will probably be a pair of Semi Dress…

[derivative666]

I can tell you BH and SD are the same but, I think BH is on the SD last

[Bluegrass]

I wear the same size SJ, SD and 460 lasts.

I find that the SJ last (whatever number it is), fits me a half size smaller than the #55 / SD last.

7 inch Black CXL LTT SJ's on their way… Special thanks to Kyle @Baker's, impeccable service as always! Jumped on a "Ready to ship" pair and luckily no White's wait time!

My first pair of Whites Semi Dress in British Tan came in today.  They look amazing.

How are they supposed to fit? I ordered a 10B according to how Josh measured my tracings. He said my right foot was a solid size 10 and my left was on the border between a size 9-1/2 to a 10 but it didn't warrant me to get two different sizes. Josh was spot on on the width though. Which surprised me since I don't think i've ever bought a shoe with a narrow width.

Although to me they seem a little long. Where is the arch ease supposed to be at.  It seems too far forward to me and there seems to be alot of room in front of my toes.  I called Josh at Bakers up and he said that this is how the Semi Dress should fit and to wear they around the house for a while and get used to them first.  If I stand up in them untied my foot slides forward a bit and the arch ease seems to be in a better place.

Should this be how they're supposed when they're new?
