These are a beautiful pair of white’s boots, the original makers of the PNW indestructible boots. They are truly handmade by hand lasting them, hand bottoming and a hand sewn stitch down construction which is a hybrid of the Goodyear welt and stitch down construction, I designed these with Whites as my version of the rose anvil X whites boots drifter series, so they are 10 inches tall, 4811 last which is a higher arch last than the 55, with a packer heel, I chose the brown distress leather because of the patina possibility, I wore them for a week so they are not broken in, they offer a full leather midsole and insole, leather shank , leather arch and a leather heel counter, all that leather will mold to your feet through time making them the most comfortable boots you’ll own, as far as sizing goes whites recommends to order a half size down from your brannock or half size down what you normally wear in sneakers, so if you wear an 8D in sneakers these will fit like a glove!
