Description

The White's x Division Road Cinnamon Waxed Flesh 350 Cutter is a 6" Lace-to-Toe pattern inspired by original toe lace logger boots debuted by Otto White in the 1920’s that were popular with workman due to greater accuracy in adjusting fit based on the conditions of use, foot swelling, or injury. These Division Road White's are characterized by the dutiful Cinnamon Waxed Flesh produced by Horween in a similar process to Chromexcel. Using a wax application during the tanning process on the roughout side of Natural CXL yields a leather with water-resistant properties designed to patina by revealing the sand-colored nap of the flesh side over prolonged use. This boot is designed in collaboration with Master Shoemaker and now CEO, Eric Kinney, to hallmark the quintessentially Northwest multi-paneled upper that allows for comprehensive rebuilds and pairs with White's exclusive stitchdown construction tradition using their unique hand-sewn and all-leather builds, all refined with our functional design approach that honors the original craftsmanship, history, and lifetime durability with a fresh perspective. This Cutter comes with an unstructured toe box that gives a lower profile to the Northwest Last in an accommodating E width that has a moderate volume and an elegant, classic round toe shape with an accommodating forefoot that matches a wide variety of feet. A lower heel equipped with the trademark Arch-Ease leather shank support offers a more approachable break-in to this fully functional work boot. We exclusively enhanced White's hand-sewn welted methods with a tonally corresponding Natural CXL welt to match the natural finished leather midsole atop a Vibram 2060 industrial walking sole for all-purpose trekking comfort that is combined with full hand-sewn stitchdown construction to allow stability and a traditional aesthetic for the long-haul. Finally, this Cutter comes with an outdoor-purposed, contrasting Natural CXL fully gusseted tongue and contrasting heavy duty natural upper thread for the rugged and is refined with brass eyelets and a leather pull loop, finished with a custom White's collar stamp and WB x DR collaboration insole stamp. Made as a hallmark to White's unaltered, hand-sewn traditions and customized to Division Road specifications, this 350 LTT Cutter is made for a life that traverses the woods to the workshop, in a polished aesthetic suitable for the street.
