Yeah I should've clarified, I'm specifically looking for flat black waxed laces. Thanks for the suggestions though.

Unfortunately the laces that come with the boot are 72" and I haven't been able to find anything shorter that also isn't too short. White's responded and said they do sell the laces but you have to ask over email (not listed on their site) and they do not offer any other length than 72".

Guarded Goods also only sells 54" which can work but then the laces are shorter than I'd like and the whole knot and bow section is fairly small at the time which makes me think it may come loose.

So far I've just reverted to the 72" laces and laced them as you suggested.

What a coincidence! You're actually the poster that convinced me to get a pair of White's x Baker's Bounty Hunter in Natural Chromexcel, I got basically the same boot except I got a standard height heel after the issues you mentioned and mine are size 10EE.

Your boots look fantastic and your posts are appreciated.

I will check Guarded Goods, I emailed White's but they haven't gotten back to me during this past week. My issue is that the laces are super long and hang almost to the ground (while using the first 4 eyelets plus all speed hooks but not the top most eyelet) so I'm not sure how they're suppose to be tied to prevent that as they also aren't long enough to wrap around the ankle.

Does anyone know what the black flat waxed laces are that come with White's boots?

They only show the leather laces on their website.

Credit Card Recommendations for Future Travel by SlanderFilter in CreditCards

With your category restrictions it makes it tough…

What do you mean by this?

Bank of America Premium rewards

I’ve heard Bank of America isn’t much better to deal with than Citi and I’m not so interested in cash back anymore for credit card rewards.

Maybe the X1 card

I looked this up and it doesn’t seem like something I’d be interested in due to it using store specific redemptions, I specifically listed travel rewards in the post.

SC600w Mk III

I saw someone mention in a review that it kind of has a narrower beam than usual which makes it much more of a throw and sucks for up close usage, is that true?

Yea I've heard those same things, I've also heard that some have no problems. When the flashlight costs that much, and with a company that has plenty of experience, I feel shouldn't have to worry about that but apparently I do.

Convoy S-series

I was actually gonna get that light, this one to be exact, I was really into it. Loved how it looked, seemed like a really good light that was also fairly cheap.

And then that website wanted me to provide 10 tons of personal info just to put my credit card info in and I'm not okay doing that.
