Why I own this

Have had nothing but excellent experiences with White’s and Division Road and loved the look of the CFS New Rosewood Elk Leather.

How I sized

I have two other pairs I own that use this last so I was very familiar with my size.

Outdoor Activities

These have served as an everyday casual boot as I have teleworked and done various activities in and around my home. I wore them to the hospital for birth of my daughter. I have enjoyed them throughout.

Durability

Patina Process

Leather has been incredibly soft and comfortable. Zero break in. It scuffs easily. I applied some venetian leather balm to them after a few months to replenish the leather and this darkened them a bit but also helped to heal some of the scrapes and scratches.

Satisfied with the Fit

I usually wear a 10.5D in the 5050 last and these only came in E widths so I had a tad more room than usual but fit was still good. Just not as snug. Very comfortable overall. Tremendous arch support from the arch ease.

Design

I love the look and feel of the boots. Very easy to style them with various fits. Able to be dressed up or down. Excellent construction, not a stitch out of place. No issues at all.

Traction

Outsole has been excellent. Great traction and easy to wear. Not excessively heavy. I like the split commando design which gave them a more unique look.
