I'm about to order a pair of White's Classic Workboots from Baker's and are somewhat alienated by their sizeing advice.
I wear a size 11D in my Red Wing Rugged boots and after sending in a tracing of my feet Baker's recomendet I order size 9E.
I know the White's may run a little larger...

Personaly I wouldn't buy from a seller who steals his pictures all over the net and does not show the actual product sold.
Thanks for the kind words, guys and don't worry, I will not hit it with pecards or anything like that. I like the distressed look as it is.
Yes, it is a Stetson, but don't ask for the model, because I can't read the tag anymore. :)

It took me about six years of daily wear over all four season to break in my HH Vanson X1 jacket (there was no need for another jacket in that time). The jacket can still stand on its own if put to the floor right, but that's a thick HH problem. At least I've got the impression that stuff gets...
Thank you for the info. I just wish your friend, for whom the B22 was made, was 4" taller. :D
Did I mention that I'm willing to trade 2 used jackets for one new? ;)

Oh and the good looking...
