Fit is spot on. Toes aren’t cramped but fit is great around the sides of the foot.

First time entering the dome… wanted to go out of my comfort zone. These boots left Spokane, traveled across the pond. Hoping to see the wilds of logging in wales or Scotland. They are now going to see the inside of the London tube network.

Jamie at East West apparel came in clutch as usual. Was able to make recommendations of previous purchases completely unprompted. Went with his advice, never let me down.

Patina Process
Care Routine

The black double shot is breaking in and patinas beautifully. It’s slow going but I think in three years these will look amazing. It’s a tough leather, I’ve seen absolutely no grain break which can be an issue with some other brands tea core (looking at you redwing) and it has also been stood on accidentally wacked against trees and used to nudge some bricks into place. Still looks great.

Satisfied with the Fit

These are very very comfortable for me. The arch support is amazing and it has really shaped to my foot. There’s a good amount of room and width in the toe box while not being too voluminous around the instep.

A nicely designed pair of shoes. I wouldn’t put the finishing up to the level of my John Lofgrens but these look like hardy boots. I’ve had a lot of comments from colleagues saying something along the lines of what mountain are you kicking over after this. That’s what I wanted from these boots.

Sole & heel

Durability
Traction

Great pair of soles. Aren’t wearing down too fast. I have good traction 99 percent of the time which I can’t say for any other shoe I own.

Final thoughts

Would Recommend

Great pair of boots. Very pleased with the fit. I think they look fantastic with a wider pair of trousers to go with the bulky look of them.

The Whites Perry Select have been great boots so far. I’ve put thick leather insoles in them.

If I needed something versatile for dress-up and dress-down, this pair will do it.
