Another Patina Thunderdome in the books! Thanks to Stitchdown and the craftsmen at Whites.
White's Custom Model in Horween Dark Brown Waxed Flesh & Seidel Brown DressBy a1moyer • April 3, 2026"I don't have anything exciting to add here. I did travel to Nevada for a few days though! 😆 Most of my boot wearing is done at work as a delivery driver. On the weekends I may go on a hike or kick around town doing chores and such. This pair has been a fine companion on my daily grind in the PNW.
We had a mild winter here in Portland. No snow or ice...just rain. ðŸ«
I'd say most of their days have been spent in SE Portland in the neighborhoods between the waterfront and SE 82nd ave. Typical urban environment with some excursions to the surrounding suburbs and a few days at the Oregon coast.
My work requires retrieving/organizing parcels in the back of the truck so some wear is acquired behind the bulkhead door.
Sidewalks, asphalt, stepping stones, concrete, gravel, grass, mud, dirt, steps, ramps, wooden decks, moss covered decks 💀, stone, and every other surface imaginable in a PNW neighborhood...these boots have been on.
The last two Thunderdomes I competed in the work category, but this year I wanted to run in the Open. I felt like the style of boot lent itself more to the Open category and wanted to rub shoulders with some patina legends!
I want to be forthright about how I wore this pair and be sure the judges know I wore these at work as well as in my off time...."Read the full review
Best boots I've ever worn. Very glad my daughter got these and had me join this competition!
White's MP 55 in Horween Dark Brown Waxed FleshBy wildflowersnboots • April 6, 2025"I have worn these boots as both work boots and casual boots. They have been great in all conditions. From sand dunes to snow to soggy terrain to hiking trails to crossing streams, these boots have been reliable. I've worn them anywhere from a couple times a week to everyday, for an hour or two to 12 hr days. I wore them while traveling for 28 hr stretches twice. They were comfortable and supportive, and not restrictive while traveling. I'm not one to take my shoes off on the road or in the air. I wore them in 90° plus weather, helping my daughter and son inlaw rebuild their porch and a few other home projects. They were fantastic as work boots. Best boots I've owned...."Read the full review

Perfect Casual Boot
BHHB Railtown in Horween Dark Brown Waxed Flesh & Wickett & Craig Russet Traditional HarnessBy ABPhoto • April 2, 2026"I wore these BHHB Railtown boots 4-5x a week for the entirety of the competition. Going to work? Railtown. Going out for drinks? Railtown. Taking the dogs for a walk? Railtown. A hike? Railtown. Working out at the gym? Sometimes the Railtown. They're so insanely comfortable and work in such a wide variety of situations that it was a no-brainer to wear them all the time...."Read the full review
