Bounty Hunter

The Baker's Bounty Hunter name is a registered trademark owned by Baker's Boots, making it unavailable directly from White's Boots. The boot represents one of the most accessible entry points into White's custom bootmaking, with pricing starting at $479.95 compared to other White's models that can exceed $800.

The Bounty Hunter utilizes White's Boots handsewn stitchdown construction, distinguished by the inclusion of hand welting. This construction method involves sewing the welt directly to the upper leather by hand, followed by stitching the welt to the outsole while also sewing through the upper in a stitchdown style. The process represents one of the most complex and labor-intensive methods in modern bootmaking.

The boot is built on White's Semi Dress 55 last, which features a sleeker toe box profile compared to the traditional Smoke Jumper last used in White's work boots. This refinement allows the Bounty Hunter to function effectively for dress, casual wear, and work applications. The boot is available in 6, 7, or 8-inch heights and includes a false tongue, known as a kiltie.

Construction details include four rows of lock stitching on the uppers for durability, a single leather midsole, and double natural midsoles sitting above full-thickness Vibram outsoles. The internal structure features entirely leather construction with a solid leather shank surrounded by White's Boots trademarked Arch Ease arch support system. Each boot involves more than 25 unique hand production stages performed by White's Boots master bootmakers.

The Bounty Hunter offers customization options for materials and hardware through Baker's Boots. Sole options include Commando Mini Lug soles and various Vibram offerings. Hardware choices feature solid brass garments. The boot's internal anatomy utilizes all-leather construction with a solid leather shank and White's proprietary Arch Ease arch support system, which provides high arch support that molds to the wearer's foot over time.

The construction enables complete resoling and rebuilding, with White's Boots offering lifetime support for repairs and rebuilds. Due to the all-leather construction methods, boots can be effectively restored to their original condition. The construction includes a replaceable welt, allowing repair if damage occurs along the edge.

Baker's Boots & Clothing, which owns the Bounty Hunter trademark, charges $479.95 for a custom Bounty Hunter and $619.95 for versions constructed with Horween horsehide. No ready-to-wear options are available, as all Bounty Hunter boots are made-to-order with extensive customization possibilities. In comparison, White's Boots Bounty Hunter configurations in Wickett & Craig Latigo start at $799 when ordered through other retailers.

The Bounty Hunter's trademark exclusivity to Baker's Boots reflects the long-standing relationship between the Oregon-based retailer and White's Boots. Baker's Boots has developed specialized ordering systems and customization options specifically for the Bounty Hunter model, making it distinct from other White's offerings.
