Shoes that look better with age...

[beatle]

these should look awesome once aged...

[rnrswitch]

It's my opinion that the Trubalance and Barrie Last's run about the same...That being said I also wear the same size in the Grant Last allthough it's a bit more narrow in the toe area to me...When I start getting in the Leydon Last, Plaza Last Etc, I start sizing up a bit...

I can agree with that. It is mainly the toe area that of the grant that makes me want to go a size up.

This is the most succinct and, in my opinion, accurate summation of Alden sizing that I've read yet.

I have these boots for sale on ebay

Item number 300360981991

Really nice pair of boots unfortunately too small for me. Good condition, slight nick in leather lining (see photo). Original soles and heels and you can see from the photos they've been worn sparingly. Will look even better with age. UK size 9.5 length on sole is 12.5 inches, width 4.75 inches. Made in Italy.

I know I should just have put these on Supermarket but I thought they might go to a good home if I put them on this thread........if they don't sell they go to the Thrift shop!

[Happy Hooligan]

If anyone is interested in those Alaska Logger boots I picked up last week, I put them in the supermarket

[jstavrin]

Damn Eddie, semi-dress leather? Really wish I had that instead of "brown smooth" for my Bounty Hunters.

[JourneyMan]

Curious as to the difference between the Semi Dress/Bounty Hunter last and the traditional smoke jumper last. any answers out there?

Rider boots, whiskey shell

[Opie]

Those are absolutely gorgeous!

with one extra leather mid sole you feel more comfortable?

or just for the design?

The Bounty Hunter Model is the upper of a Smoke Jumper placed on the Semi Dress Last...Kinda like a hybrid of the 2 boots...

i like it like that and i like my front pat of my feet is not " feelin" the ground when i walk

[Denim Phenom]

Seeing shoes with platform soles always reminds me of the Seinfeld "Lifts" episode.

someone said that he feel little back pain with white's semi dress boots

even if standard single leather sole. because of the heels higher than

sneakers he usually use.

double mid sole + vibram out sole... Isn't it painful?

[jpsmith98]

for edmond it's simple: more = better.

[edmond]

nope its not okuyama san did it in such a way that theyr almost flat when you wear em it feels more shorter ( heel) than an ordinary white single leather + vibram

just ask this guy i patterned that pair from him.. ok?

and yes isnt this a fashion forum?

[jstavrin]

Hot damn...Why can't my BH leather get that shiny?

[Gang]

oh.. I see

double leather mid sole with 'seperated vibram out sole'

so you could feel more shorter heels than ordinary.

[edmond]

oh so you will feel not that hard to walk on.

its hard to explain when someone doesnt have a pair like this.. coleslaw help haha

[Gang]

you're right.. Edmond

I want to try work boots vary first time.

and there's so many things that I can choose..

make me dizzy

[edmond]

get a bounty hunter in single sole and vibram youll love em

[Curious_George]

Those double leather soles look like they'd be awfully heavy. My Vibergs with crepe soles are almost too heavy for me, I can't imagine I could even walk with double leather soled Whites.

[jstavrin]

As someone with a pair of White's Bounty Hunters with a double leather soul (coming from Red Wing GTs), it took maybe a day to get used to. It's not as heavy as you'd think.

[Snake]

Edmond, your bounty hunter has plain toe or celastic toe box?
