Wow! EBay?

Nope, Baker's. They're not custom but they are my size so I could care less and at that price :-*

Yes, black CXL Smoke Jumpers. It was a gift, I'm not gonna complain one bit! Hell, I'm lucky she got the sizing right cause I think sale items are non-returnable

Got these on eBay for a steal and had them rebuilt with a lowered heel and vibram honey lug sole.

I actually really like them, the honey lug sole really suits them.

Thanks Megatron, I was very pleased with the rebuild. It was like having a new pair of boots built for only $200. I believe I'll go with a lower profile sole on my next pair though. These are a little chunky.

I like the combination a lot! Someone should try a ripple sole on one of those eventually :-)

Same as Viberg in my opinion, Whites fit is BIG.

What sort of Whites are you looking for man?
