White's Boots

Thank you for the build details @rio .
I'll be thinking about a similar build, and I'd like that same color and leather. I like lasts with more arch support so I'll talk to Kyle about how to go about it. Will let you know once I have an offshoot of your pair to show.
Kyle will lead you the right way, the only think that sucks is the wait :D, fo real…. :'(, can't wait to see them.

I take really good care of my boots, so these look nice still but have seen a LOT of wear. They'll turn 2 in October I believe. 8" Bounty Hunters, laced to toe in #8 CXL. They're lined and have Vibram 430s and single celastic toe boxes. I loved this particular pair so much that I had another built, same specs except natural CXL and natural edges. I brush every pair every single time I take them off, store them with cedar trees, and usually keep pouches of shredded cedar inside to keep them dry. I treat with Obenauf's LP whenever they look to need it, generally before winter and a time or two during. This pair is well on it's way to needing a resole.

I got this beauties today and already took them for a ride in my bike, they are very comfortable, don’t get turn off or surprise by the first fit, it felt a little weird at first but after 5 steps it was like walking on air, very well built and great support, I’m very happy with them.

They’re rock solid.

Haven't worn these in a while, but I broke them out to go tromping through the mud at our construction site.
The leather's looking a little dry, so I guess it's about time for some rehab work. -
I came home to this….

7 and half weeks of wait, the boots are finally here. Absolutely stunning shoes, here's the configuration:
White's Smoke Jumper Standard Last; Leather 1: Black Dress; Leather 2: Black Bull Hide; Toe Vamp Leather: Black Dress; Toe Cap Leather: Black Dress; Celastic Toe Box: Single; Safety Toe: No Thanks; Heel Counter Leather: Black Dress; Height: 8"; Upper (Shaft) Leather : Black Bull Hide; Leather Liner: Tan; Sole Trim: Standard Trim; Top: Rolled; Back Stay Leather: Black Bull Hide; Pull Loop: Yes; Eyelet Color: Antique; Eyelet Configuration: Hook and Eyelet; Top Garment: Hook; Lace Design: Plain Toe; Lace: Leather; False Tongue: Black Bull Hide; Sole: Vib mini-lug; Half Slip: No; Heel Shape: Block; Heel Height: Standard; Last: Standard
Midsole: Standard; Midsole/Edge Color: Natural
First day wearing them, pretty tight around the ball part and arches of the feet, should be the arch-ease system. Kyle said it'll loose up and collapse in 100-120 hours of wear. Now it's time to think about the next pair.

Kyle gave me 6-8 weeks, and I ordered on Oct 4th.

I have to post more of them, as they are simply gorgeous. Second day, the tightness has already given in, the break-in hasn't been tough at all.

So how do you find the bullhide compared to the cxl, similar or vast diff?

I'm not completely sure which aspect you were referring to. Stiffness, I think they are similar; when new, I like the bullhide better. In terms of how they evolve and their qualities, I can't comment as this is my first time experience with bullhide on anything. But I can't say that my experience with cxl has been 100% satisfactory, especially for my riding boots.
