    I agree. I bought that iron 883 new in 2009, and considered trading it in when I bought my 2019 softail, but I couldn’t let it go. I rode it in to work today, in fact. I put the 14” bars on it late last year, and it has made the bike much more rideable for me. It’s a very fun bike to ride…

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I think these are somewhere around 6 years old and just had their first resoling.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I've got a pair of ~ 4 or 5 year old semi-dress. I love them, but I had to send them back when I received them years ago because the back part was crooked, the heels were of different heights, and one heel was crooked. Now they are due for a resole, but I don't think I'm going to send them back...

    It was a really nice ride, especially through New Hampshire and Vermont. Took me 15 hours to get there. ON the way back, I broke it up into two days, and it was MUCH more pleasant.

    rode from Rochester, NY to Phippsburg, Maine last week in one day. It was great and my bike did really well.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    ok, one at a time: I can't tell if the chromexcel on the whites's (which are british tan on mine) is any thicker than what AE uses. It's really not the same leather. Maybe British tan is technically a cxl, but they are not just the same leathers in different colors. They are distinctly...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    ME TOO, actually! I had a pair of.. get this... AFfliction combat boots that were my motorcycle boots for years, and after they broke down and were falling apart, I started looking for an american made boot... found wolverine, bought a pair in "predator" leather, they were garbage and the...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    on Chromexcel: I have three chromoexcel boots/shoes. I'm counting my British Tan Oxfords, though the leather is very obviously different. Brit. Tan oxords, white's: People who know shoes often ask if they are Shell. They have NO wrinkles or creases, and have a nice roll at the bend point. They...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Me too. But white's doesn't make a horsehide engineer boot, and I was told it is because they don't have horsehide strips large enough to make up the shaft of an engineer boot.

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    A few reasons. First, it's butt ugly. Second, I don't contact the shifter in the same place most people do... My foot hits the shifter over my instep, and not just rear of the toes, like most riders, and the location of the shift pad, typically. I had a pair of black boots years ago that I wore...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    Hey Friends, Anyone have any ideas for an interesting, yet functional, Engineer boot rebuild? I'll be ordering some White's Nomads in a few weeks. I'd like something more interesting than standard black or brown oil tanned. However, these will be used for motorcycle riding. And some...

    Filson Bag Thread: With Pictures

    This is my 24 hour bag. I bought it a few years ago, and I just rewaxed it when I noticed that there was some wear through the first layer of material at some of the bottom corners. It has been all over the world with me, most recently in Abu Dhabi, Hawaii, and Germany. I used to travel 50% of...

    Custom White's Boots ... Thoughts?

    I don't think they care what knowledgeable people think about their traditional shoemaking. They are a company that makes work boots for wildland firefighters and loggers. Blucher and derby are silly words and the kind of people that are White's core business don't know, and if they do, they...
