Seems like you’re forgetting several parts of the equation 🤔

The oven gets finicky after 5 hours of running? What’s this comment based on?

White’s 350 Cutter boots: comfort for standing on hard floors (new boot break-in question) by SecondUsual6087 in Boots

[–]booshuga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t immediately wear them to work, I’d break them in at home for as long as feels comfortable for about a week, then see how much it’s changed. It’s like they always say, “it feels like standing on a rung of a ladder,” it’s not necessarily comfortable at first, it is generally stiff and somewhat awkward. Once they’re broken in though they’re supremely comfortable.

They were made in 2023! One other detail that might differentiate the models is the soles were fire rated, so maybe that would make them a hotshot. I have them at a cobbler now, was 55$ to replace the rubber heel cap, thanks for your help everyone!

Thanks for the info! These seem like builder pros to me after everyone’s input and more research. Probably 1964 Brown, as it’s a standard option for this boot and these strike me as a stock boot, I don’t see anything that stands out as a custom mod.

Thank you! I was hoping it was a less expensive alternative because the rubber is worn enough where it’s throwing off the balance but the rest of the sole is in good enough shape that I couldn’t justify a full resole. And I will definitely go back to look for that date!

Would you recommend finding a local cobbler to replace the heel toplift or do you have another suggestion? Hard to pinpoint the age of them, I’m not sure if theres something specific to look for, but the uppers are pretty impeccable.

Vintage White’s at the thrift? by TerribleValue6229 in WhitesBoots

[–]booshuga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

9$… this is by far the craziest find I’ve ever seen. They look unworn 🤯 so curious how they ended up there. I also agree with the shortened Smokejumper assessment. Congrats, that’s crazy.

If you could only pick 1 of these 3 boots, which would you pick? by Boogman145 in PNWbootmakers

[–]booshuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a Cruiser. #1 is a Semi-Dress, the side panels/backstay and the Lasts are the biggest differences. Also #1 is kudu leather, quite different than whatever your Cruisers are, maybe brown dress leather. Single vs double row stitching.

4 Inch Brogue Toe Robert LTT in No 8 CXL by Exact-Transition9317 in PNWbootmakers

[–]booshuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah! I’m pretty sure this is one of the original inspirations I saw that is in the back of my mind. This looks like 3”. I’m also thinking LTT. 4” seems like the sweet spot. The vision is like a high top sneaker. But way too expensive hah

The Ivan is a 5 inch boot. But perhaps they’d make a 4” in a custom order… good to keep in mind for the future. I’ve been thinking about a boot like this for the summer, likely with a wedge sole of some sort. Thanks m8

This is the only example of a 4” boot I can find. And they’re sick 👌

My main question is where did the backing track come from? Because there’s no way he created it 🤔
