Hi guys,
I've been looking at some Wesco/ Whites for some boots. It might be a rookie question, but what is the advantage of lace to toe boots? Does it affect the comfort or feel at all? Is it just aesthetic? Thanks for any help...cheers...

Lace-to-Toe boots are supposed to offer better fit and stability. The reason is the ability to lace the toe & forefoot area tighter/looser, lock the laces, then lace the ankle & shaft differently - in other words, different lacing for different parts of the foot. If you just stick with a basic lacing technique for the entire boot, you probably won't be able to discern much difference between lace-to-toe and standard boot styles.
