Only good to report, as always with this forum. Sold something like 12 shirts, and had zero trouble with anyone. @bryaneidins70 , @IH-GARY , @Senorx , @kshakeri …all great buyers.
Extra credit to @madmonday , who sold me a pair of jeans…and when it didn't fit, he sent me an identical pair in another size and took a "free" return. I don't expect that service from most stores...let alone a dude on an internet forum. He's the man!
Both my Bounty Hunters are 10E, as are these. I'd say these are about as wide but maybe feel a tiny bit longer? I'd probably consider buying MPs a half size smaller than a Bounty Hunter, but its totally wearable at the same size.
Yeah, close trim. At first arch-ease seemed impossible to get used to…now I hate not having it.
I have a couple bounty hunters that I love, but I wanted something a little lighter and less bulky. I ordered a pair of White's Military Police Service Boot and have been pretty happy with them. I miss the crazy arch-ease thing (didn't see that coming, to be honest) and no speed hooks is killing me. Other than that, they seem like really nice pieces of well-clicked chromexcel and a good last.
These seem like they're pandering to the Viberg crew, but I figured I'd give them a shot before I dropped 30% more on Vibergs. Not sure how I feel about the toe caps, but I'm getting used to them.
Red and a green for me. Phew.
My three favorite fits are:
Alden Trubalance 10 E - Almost as good as the White's 10E. No complaints.
Alden Trubalance 9.5 EEE - Pretty good but a bit snug. Thin socks only.
Wolverine 1K Miles 10 EEE - Started fine, ended up being too big because the leather was so stretchy.
ASICS 11 EEEE - Great fit. I can never find sneakers or athletic shoes that fit. This is the only thing that has ever worked for me.
Never had Vibergs or Wesco to compare to, but I'm sure they would have a last that fits as well.
Whites Bounty Hunter roughout showed up. I'm so hooked on the way their 10E fits, I don't know if I'll ever buy anything else.
Not too sure about the difference @Ragehaver. I believe 'harvest' was just what they named that particular color/hue of leather. The rough-out on mine seems very similar to what you linked so I wouldn't worry about it too much if it looks good to ya.
Agreed. I ordered some leather samples so hopefully I'll be able to sort it out.
What is the price of one pair of white boots ?
A custom build from Baker's is about $450~500 USD, depending on options.
