    People getting pretty bent out of shape over the price of these boots. White's isn't selling these at gun point. Everything has a value regardless of the price. Some expensive things are still a good value. White's boots are one of those things.

      I own a pair of C350 cruisers and they are absolutely worth the price they charge. Yeah it took some saving on my part, but it was a great investment. Would buy again if I had to.

    I fell in love with the 350 Cutter in natural CXL. Living in Canada, I didn’t have the option of being fitted and took a risk by purchasing a pair of 8 inch natural CXL Baker’s x White’s Bounty Hunters when they were 20% off on Black Friday. It took 4 months and 10 days for them to arrive from the time I ordered. I followed the White’s sizing guide and ordered 1/2 size down from my Brannock size. With Darn Tough boot socks they fit great! The break in was very mild except for the arch. Initially, it will feel like you’re standing on the rungs of a ladder. But in time it mellows out and becomes quite lovely to wear. I adore my White’s!

    Thanks for the detailed review. These boots were designed for cruising timber. Cruising is a sampling process to determine the value of the Timber on a tract of land. It involves recording accurate tree measurements with precision tools on sample plots. These boots would greatly expedite this process. The more plots one could take in a day the more money one could make. I cruised for years with 8" White's Smoke jumpers and did not know about this boot until recently. I currently use 10" Vibergs. The 6" height and lighter weight is very desirable. Having an air Bob sole would be perfect. Thanks again.

    Baker shoes used to sell this boot makeup as the 'bounty hunter'. Smoke jumper build on a semidress last. I got mine 7 years ago and I'm about ready to send them in for a rebuild. I've mainly used them for work, but they look good casual too

      @@bobabo they are great boots. They've held up very well. I work for a roofing company, (I'm the field manager not a roofer) and I've worn them to work a good amount. I've also polished them up and worn them for weekend boots at times as well. They are definitely a step up in quality from Red Wings (which I own a few pairs of also). And I think Red Wing makes a great boot btw. All in all, I'm very happy with my 350 Cruisers.

      @@bobabo don't be worried. And don't be put off by the comments about production quality. There WILL be SOME imperfections. But White's does a great job when making boots. You'll get a beautiful boot that is built like a tank. Them and Nick's are still the most well built, robust, boots I own. And I own Red Wings, JK's, and have owned Wolverines, as well as many other brands. You can't go wrong with Nick's or White's. Imo they make the most robust boots in the world and their finishing is second only to custom, private, boot makers.

    Hey Nick, have you come across any ‘zero drop’ type boots? Altras trainers are zero drop, with a wide toe box and are comfy as hell. Dono if theres anything remotely similar in the boot world…? Noticed that Da Vinci, Gaucho Ninja, Peerko and Zaqq all do something in that general direction but no experience with them yet. Liking the concept of preserving natural stride like barefoot shoes but without them looking weird! :-)

  • @goodyearspokane

    Just want to put out a white’s boots warning out there for November 2022. I ordered a pair of boots during their Black Friday sale. They charged me. I got an email telling me the boots I ordered were discontinued even though they are advertised on their site. More significantly they said it will take 14 days to get my money back. I’m sure they’re lovely boots. BUT I’ll never know cause I’ll never buy one of their products with that kind of customer service.

      The cruiser is built by American workers and can be repaired for years to come. Boots can last from 10-30 years and you aren't supporting possible slave labor. Still super expensive but cheaper than a phone and will last a lot longer.
