    Live 50 miles from Spokane, have Whites, Nick’s, & JK’s, I’ll be adding a pair of Frank’s shortly. My oldest Whites are closing in on 20 years, still going strong. Great to live in the land of the best made boots $ can buy.

    The Frank's and Nick's are stitchdown, not welted. The White's and Frank's are not suede, it's roughout. Frank's doesn't stitch through the honey or white X soles because it's prone to chip between the edge and the stitch on the softer soles. Additionally, all three makers don't stitch through on the thicker midsoles.

      They are just different terms that mean the same thing for the leather. And franks does stitch through the honey and white x soles.

    When these PNW boots break in does the toe box leather form to your toes? Just wondering because most of them don’t have a structured toe

    • @GentlemansJourney
      @GentlemansJourney  Před 6 měsíci +1

      The footbed does but not necessarily the top of the toe.

    • @bricktop201
      @bricktop201 Před 6 měsíci +1

      The upper toe box doesn’t form to your foot per se, but rather softens up and tends to lose a bit of shape if they don’t have steel, carbon or celastic inserts. It’s not a bad thing, it just means it’s more comfortable to walk in. The foot bed absolutely forms to your foot.

    Your cobbler isn’t schooled in PNW boots. Don’t let him work on your boots. First he needs to learn the difference between suede and rough out.
