Description

The White's x Division Road Black Waxed Flesh & Natural CXL 350 Cutter is a 6" Lace-to-Toe pattern inspired by the original toe-lace logger boots debuted by Otto White in the 1920s, popular with workmen for their greater accuracy in adjusting fit based on conditions of use, foot swelling, or injury. These Division Road White's are characterized by two Chromexcel tannage variations in a contrasting palette that will patina to relate more closely over years of hard wear. The Black Waxed Flesh for the vamp and counter will reveal a sand-colored nap that corresponds to the Natural CXL leather used on the quarter, tongue, and back-stay, which will eventually darken with use and conditioning. 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, 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 features an unstructured toe box, providing a lower profile to the Northwest Last in an accommodating E width with moderate volume, and an elegant, classic round toe shape with a generous 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 for this fully functional work boot. We exclusively enhanced White's hand-sewn, welted methods with a tonally corresponding Black CXL welt to match the black-stained leather midsole, atop a black Vibram 4014 Christy industrial sole, for all-purpose comfort. This is combined with a single-row, hand-sewn stitchdown to allow for greater flexibility and a clean aesthetic for the long haul. Finally, this Cutter comes with an outdoor-purpose, contrasting Natural CXL fully gusseted tongue and is refined with tonal oxidized eyelets and a leather pull loop, finished with a custom White's collar stamp and a WB x DR collaboration insole stamp. Made as a hallmark of 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 and the workshop, with a polished aesthetic suitable for the street.
