Anyone have an XL they'd be willing to part with?

Received mine today and I love them. Fit is great and just what I was looking for. I gave them a soak, as I do with all new pairs regardless if they’re unsanforized or not, and after drying they now appear more black than they did. Especially when held up to my indigo pairs.

@rocket:

How much room to you have when it is buttoned up ?  It is always personal preference, but from the pics I would say you could go one down.

I've got room, but not a ton. I would mostly be wearing this with either a hoodie or heavy flannel under it. Maybe occasionally with just a t-shirt. My biggest concerns are the shoulders, and the length, which according to the measurement chart are an inch smaller on the XL. I don't imagine I'd see much shrink (never had anything in this denim) with a really hot soak. It's not overly big, I just want it to be a tiny bit trimmer.

Crappy pictures, I know, but could I get a fit check? I'm fat so I went with an XXL, but now I'm thinking I maybe should have gone with XL. Thoughts?

Will the outlet still be open on the 7th? Gotta wait until payday to grab a few things (that I'm hoping don't sell out before then).

@eyeq8402:

the viberg sale is such bs. been waiting on the computer for a half an hour on their technical difficulties and the boots i wanted were already bought. bummer.

What were you looking to get? I snagged the black bullhide short shifts.

I emailed Kyle about a year ago about supplying my own buckles for a pair of Nomads, and he said White's wasn't accepting any modifications. That may have changed in that year tough.

Damn, that in super black would be so awesome.

That black dress is so nice. Maybe I should have gone with that rather than the black cxl.

I also waxed my RDR and then roughed them up again with a suede brush. Really brought out that nice red color I was really hoping for when I first ordered them.

@urbanwoodsman:

On the look out for some other black laces. I'm not a fan of either of these. I wish they would send black leather laces with black boots.

I found some really awesome Justin brand super thick round black waxed laces at a western wear store that are awesome. Here they are:

@daizawaguy:

Is there a size difference between the two?

I`ve heard cougar is one half up recommended?

Love the BH`s!

The BHs definitely fit bigger than the Cougars. Realistically I could have gone up a width in the Cougars, but stayed the same in length and been fine. They don't fit too tight now, but a width bigger would allow for thicker socks. I also have Smoke Jumpers on the swing last, and the BHs feel like they have more room across the ball of the foot compared to those.

Here are the pictures of my new White's. Ordered on 2/7, and received them 3/14.

White's Bounty Hunters

White's Cougars with Giles' favorite Vibram 2021 sole.

Hell yes. My two new pairs should be here tomorrow.

Yeah, that's true I suppose. I just really love the jacket.

If these were ever re-ran, I would buy one in a heartbeat. I mean I love my 9526J, but I miss hand warmer pockets.

Just clicked process on a new order. Went a little overboard and ordered two pairs, but I'm selling most of my other boots to justify it.

Went with Cougars with black chrome excel toe, heel, and backstay with a black roughout upper and black Vibram 2021 sole, and Bounty Hunters with red dog roughout toe, heel, and back stay, and black bullhide uppers. Double midsole in natural with a block heel.

Yeah, I've had them since May with no problems at all. They're my most comfortable boots.

I did a half slip and 1/4 inch lowered block heel on my SJs and I like it.

What was wrong with yours ben2t?
