Agreed.

what do you guys think about these boots? they're $150 and seem to be a solid substitute/alternative for the alden indy due to their pricing- i have no job, so bear with me.

also does anyone have any experience with the lands end boots in general? thanks for your guys input.

[spidereye]

Go for it..nice,

[ranonranonarat]

i considered dropping some money for these but on second thought why not hold out a little longer for something better? from the reviews they dont sound very sturdy at all.

THey might look look Alden Indys - what's the benefit? Why not try a few thrift stores? Buy cheap and you're not necessarily saving money.

If you want a budget workboot, might be worth looking at some of the military repro sites - someone here, I can't remember if it's airfrog or erk, has a pair of WWII roughouts that are terrific value for money. Because they're made to be worn, not to look good in a shop.

Just as an example, these might wear well:

Or roughouts for $99:

I suspect either of these will wear a lot better than a budget high street boot. I'd love someone with experience of them to post and prove me wrong. Factor in whether your flash-looking boots will take a resole or two, and you might find they're bad value for money, rather than a bargain.

Nice boot ..Paul T. similiar to juliian & rrl .

[coleslawyum]

I'm surprised these new redwing beckman chukka boots have not been posted yet.... someone else can post a picture I'm sure.

I am actually pretty tempted by the black ones, but red wings never fit me so well.

Buzz Rickson Officer's Chukka Boots. Picked up off the 'bay recently.

[Happy Hooligan]

well if you do get the lands end boot, the nice thing is if you don't like it you can return it to any sears store for a refund...

[CrashTestBrummie]

what pant is this??? looks great

Carhartt Roper trousers, in cotton duck...

In other news, the smell of Tricker's polish is seriously seductive...from a slightly dodgy, solvent-abusing perspective...

I need some feedback about White's SD.

1) I wear 7EEE in Alden 405. Should I size the same for SD?

2) How does the #38 Retro Semi Dress Americana by White's Boots compare to the 2011 White's Classic Work Boot as seen on bakershoe.com? What exactly is the "classic last" like?

Thanks.
