White's Boots
-
^Thanks, I am leaning towards that type of sole now as well. The height actually is not a huge preference, so slightly shorter or longer would be fine. I was more concerned about the last and shape of the boot. I thought your boot had a shape fairly close to what I am after. Sent you a pm as well!
-
got it! if i was to order again today, i might go one lift lower with the heel though. not for comfort, but just to tone them down a bit.
-
for reference: semi dress vs bounty hunter with almost the same sole setup (except colour and heel shape). note the seperate heel piece from the single shaft and the backstay sewn underneath it with the pull loop on the bounty hunters.
-
not sure about the consistency of that, here is a different pair of SD's against the same bounty hunters.
-
hi guys! I'm thinking of my second pair! am considering a semi-dress with double midsole and half comp sole.. but i'm not too sure on leather yet… here's what I have in mind
Natural CXL
Brown French Calf
-
I believe it was Barun. About 2 years ago but I don't remember if they were sj or sd.
-
I would probably choose the distressed over natural CXL, just because the CXL is too delicate and scuffs too easily and distressed often looks very much the same. Of course CXL is softer, at least before breaking in the distressed leather.
I would suggest to consider ordering the heel one lift lower though, like in the picture (which is not an SD, of course).
-
Brilliant! That's them. I was pondering the black/brown combination for a pair for something different that would work with black jackets nicely.
My SJs with standard heel have quickly become the most comfortable pair of boots I have owned so I probably wouldn't change the build in that respect. Why do you suggest one lift lower on the heel nca?
-
Sorry unharmed, I meant to answer supersalami's message. And there it was purely for style reasons on the SD's.
btw. the two-tone model unearthed by Finn should be a Bounty Hunter IMHO.

If I get my boots on Tuesday like Fedex says I should, then my wait time from order to my door will be 8 weeks. Ordered through Kyle at Bakers. That was during three holidays as well.

Urban, were you able to sneak by the three leather option like you planned or did they bust your balls?

Man, I saw some Natural CXLs at Little Joe's and even though I just got my smoke jumpers, I'm pretty freakin' in love with them. Kinda really fell for the red dog as well…
