My ho hum Corcoran 1510's are my most comfortable boot. I'm a big fan of the wide toe box with the swept back pinky toe; I know the shape isn't a lot of folks cup 'O tea, but I wouldn't want anything else. Love the looks and feel.

Anyone have any idea what last this would be?

I'm interested in getting a pair of White's SD's done and wonder if the swing #38 last is close. Anyone know?

A pic for reference.

Nice boots! How old are they? I ask because I don't remember seeing that style on Chippewa's website within the past few years. But then again, maybe it's the laces -- are the laces original? Or were the original laces dark brown like the boots?

They are several years old; not sure exactly how long. I can't remember what the original laces looked like, but those in the photo are aftermarket.

I know it's hearsay to some but I've never liked how cowboy boots fit. The slight slip at the heel and the flared upper portion just weren't for me. I love how they look, but not how they feel on me.
I've always preferred the packer style. This style is also much more practical as a work boot.
