White's Bounty Hunter

The goals for this boot were mostly around winter and hiking. I wanted something that would hold up well in Buffalo winters including the endless piles of salt my work throws down. I went a bit higher than I normally wear for ankle support, and to balance out a big lug sole and double row of stitches. Fire and ice V100 seemed an obvious pick for a mix of hiking and winter. The natural CXL was a choice made on this app. I loved the way it aged and figured all the oil and wax would hold up well against the salt. I went for the lower heel so I don't start having issues in doorways. There were lots of reasons for the block vs logger heel. It's more stable, I'm on the east coast and I think the logger looks better on shorter guys/smaller feet. The cap toe gives a bit of structure to the unstructured toe and visually breaks up a larger boot.

Bakers did the sizing and it was perfect. I sent in my tracings, brannock measurements and gave a bit of guidance as far as what I liked. Ended up with a different width ball and heel.

I worked with Baker's over email after sending in my tracings. It was super straightforward and they nailed the fit.
