shamus said:what I did was ordered the Boss Boots from West Coast Shoes, but in Brown, which you have to ask for, then went with the "Motor Cycle Police" toe and the lowest sole they had. This best looked like the classic 40's-50's engineer boots. And now with a little Breaking in, they're starting to look it too. ( I had just done some brush clearing so there is a bit of grass bits still on them...)

They have been re-heeled twice I think. I used to wear them almost everyday. They will last many moons and they are the most comfortable thing I have ever worn on my feet. Also there are scores of members here that can give rave reviews. The others are unknown....but then again....you could be the guinea pig.
Whites Boots (whitesboots.com ) is very well known and respected in Spokane. Anyone looking for a real pair of work boots here, goes to Whites. I had a pair made about 6 or 7 years ago and they are great. They took into account my strange right toe and fitted me as well as could be expected. They make custom boots if that is what you want. They stand behind their product and provide excellent customer service. If you could get to Spokane to get custom fitted, you would end up thinking it was worth the trouble. I highly recommend them. I once tried on a pair of Aldens in their San Francisco store and they felt horrible to me. Very narrow toes.MK said:They cost as much as Aldens! I hope they are as good.
