This was my first pair of White's. I live in Chicago and wanted something a little more "dressy".
This was my first pair of White's and also first black leather boots. Over all very happy with the boots. Definitely want to get another pair, probably something more heavy duty (Cruiser or Cutter). This was also the most expensive pair of footwear (I paid around $600-700). The Father's Day sale was very helpful financially. Some people mistook these for Dr. Martens and I feel I really should've gone with double row stitch for not only the construction and design aspects. If you have extra money for great PNW boots, I'd recommend it!
