From what I've read about Sno Seal, you can apply polish to the leather after it has been applied. Ideally, when applying Sno Seal to the boots, a safe amount of heat is used to open up the pores on the leather. This allows the sno seal to be absorbed into the leather where it forms a natural...

Finally got the SD So I can finally say that I got my boots. WOW, these things are awesome. Simply awesome. I also took the liberty of posting my initial impression and a bunch of pics in the Semi Dress thread...

Received My Custom SD So I Just came back from vacation, and had a large, white box with the words "White's Boots" waiting for me. After all this anticipation, I finally received my custom boots. Now, I was initially aiming to get a versatile boot (in color and style) that could be worn...

Yeah, mine are waiting for me at home. Or at least I assume so. I have been on vacation for the better part of a week now. I'll be returning home in a few days and should be able to snap a few pictures for everyones viewing pleasure.

According to Whites, my custom Semi Dress boots shipped out yesterday. I'm all the way across the country, so it will take a little over a week to deliver. Will post some pics as soon as they arrive.

Curious why you went with the Black Cherry water buffalo? Any particular reason?

Yeah, it was easy to put it out of my mind earlier. But now that is is closer to the quoted 4 weeks, I am growing increasingly impatient. I hope they get here soon.

Still waiting my friend. I called White's and placed the order 4 weeks ago, as of yesterday. They told me at that time it would take roughly 4 weeks. They sent me an invoice dated on the 17th of Jan, so, by that date, it will be four weeks on Feb 14th. I will definitely post pictures as...

Anyone Else w/ White's Boots ? Been doing some research on a nice pair of boots and finally decided to take the dive. Decided to go the White's route, as opposed to Alden, RW, Wolverine, Frye, or any of the other designers or custom makers. I wanted something substantial, that would last...
