White's Boots

[supersalami]

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

[unharmed]

I'm sure someone posted in here pics of an SJ build in two-tone black and natural (not the Apocalypse Boots though). Does anyone recall?

[derivative666]

I believe it was Barun. About 2 years ago but I don't remember if they were sj or sd.

you´re talking about these?

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).

[unharmed]

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?

[nicecrackaction]

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?

No word either way. I guess I'll find out Tuesday!

6" Bounty Hunters
heel counter = black dress(might end up being black cxl)
upper = natural cxl
toe vamp = black cxl
90 degree block heel
natural cxl false tongue
Vibram 430

I can't wait. Next will be all natty CXL. I'm in love with that shit. And Olive CXL is great too.

[pillowPANTS]

Really wanna see these shane. I think bounty hunter is the way i wanna go too

[joesaintjohn]

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…

@JJ how do you go about sizing on them SJ? I assumed tts?

[Finn666]

jsj, where the pics at?

[unharmed]

Yeah we need more pics here

Super keen to see your natural/black build, urbs as it sounds pretty close to what I have in my head for my next pair.

[tigerpac]

Is there a good resource explaining the pros/cons of each type of leather, heel, construction etc that somebody could point me to?  Thanks
