Perry 6" Select

Built using White's traditional Goodyear welt construction with hand-bottomed processes, the Perry 6" Select is constructed on the 1972 Arch-Ease™ Last and features a Vibram Christy Crepe sole with cushioning Ortholite footbed. The boot is offered in eight leather options including Double Shot leathers and Roughout finishes, positioning it as a premium lifestyle boot for both work and casual wear.

The Perry 6" Select employs White's signature Goodyear welt construction with several premium upgrades distinguishing it from the standard Perry model. The construction process involves hand-bottoming techniques executed by master bootmakers, ensuring thorough attention to traditional bootmaking methods.

The boot incorporates a leather shank rather than the composite shank found in the regular Perry, providing enhanced durability and foot conformance typical of White's higher-end models. Additionally, the Select features a leather heel counter replacing the original fiberboard counter, which offers improved durability and better molding to the wearer's feet over time.

Built on the 1972 Arch-Ease™ Last with low arch design, the Perry 6" Select maintains the same last geometry as the original Perry while incorporating the upgraded materials. The sole system consists of a Vibram midsole supporting the Vibram Christy Crepe wedge sole, providing the cushioned feel characteristic of moc-toe work boots.

The Perry 6" Select features premium full-grain leather uppers sourced from Seidel Tannery, offering eight distinct leather options to accommodate various style preferences. The Double Shot leather options include British Tan, Black, Brown, Burgundy, and Natural finishes, each featuring combination-tanned construction that displays significant pull-up characteristics and develops character with wear.

Additional leather choices include Tobacco Stampede, an orange-brown oil-tanned leather designed for durability in demanding work conditions, and Roughout options in both Distress and Black finishes. All leather selections maintain the boot's resoleable construction, allowing for long-term maintenance and rebuilding.

The internal components include a cushioning Ortholite footbed providing comfort during extended wear, while the leather welt and shank construction ensures structural integrity. Each boot is embossed with the White's logo, maintaining the brand's traditional identification marking since 1853.

The Perry 6" Select is available in sizes ranging from 7 to 13.5, offered in both D and EE width options to accommodate various foot dimensions. The sizing recommendation follows White's standard guidance of ordering a half size down from natural shoe size, consistent with the brand's typical last-to-foot relationship.

The 1972 Arch-Ease™ Last provides a modern feeling fit with comfortable proportions for average foot shapes. The moc-toe construction creates a large toe box design that accommodates natural foot movement while maintaining structured support through the midfoot and heel areas.

User feedback indicates the Perry 6" Select requires virtually no break-in period, making it immediately comfortable for extended standing and walking. The boot runs approximately a half size large, reinforcing the half-size-down recommendation for proper fit.

The Perry 6" Select carries an original retail price of $400.00, though promotional pricing of $320.00 has been observed through official White's channels. This premium pricing reflects the upgraded materials and construction methods compared to the regular Perry model, which typically retails around $325.

As a made-to-order product, the Perry 6" Select requires approximately 14 to 16 weeks for production and delivery. This extended timeline reflects White's hand-construction methods and made-to-order manufacturing approach rather than mass production techniques.

The boot is available through White's official retail channels and authorized dealers, with model number R4000-CC identifying the specific 6-inch Select variant. The extended production timeline and premium pricing position the Select as White's upgrade option for customers seeking enhanced materials while maintaining the Perry's accessible moc-toe style.
