\"White'sA fellow in the blogosphere who writes a blog about engineer boots<\/a> reviewed the Nomad engineer boot made by White’s Boots of Spokane, Washington.<\/p>\n

White’s Boots is well known to make exceptionally rugged boots for men. White’s has been making superb linesman, logger, and firefighter boots for decades. All super-rugged and durable. However, while I appreciate the excellent workmanship that goes into making White’s Boots, I have not owned any of their boots because I’m not fond of lace-up boots. Until now… this year they introduced a line of engineer boots called Nomads.<\/p>\n

Now I own a pair of these boots and have had a chance to take them for a ride on my Harley. What do I think?

\n\"White'sSuper boots! Very rugged, durable, and exceptionally well made. They are expensive, but I found a good sale on them from a third-party vendor. The boots took about five weeks to arrive after ordering them. That’s not bad at all considering that the boots were made to my specs.<\/p>\n

Thick Vibram® 100 lug sole — screwed on, too. Higher heel than most engineer boots, which when I gave the boots a test ride on my Harley, performed excellently holding the boot on the highway pegs. (I requested an additional heel lift when I ordered the boots.)<\/p>\n

The boots are double-stitched and made with top-quality leather. While they are “only” 12 inches tall, they are, pound-for-pound, exceptional. I’m quite impressed. And those of you who know me know me well enough that it takes some boot to impress me.<\/p>\n

It will take a while to break in these boots. They’re a bit stiff and have yet to conform to my feet. But I anticipate they will adjust fine, and will be a frequent “go-to” boot when I mount my iron horse for a ride.<\/p>\n

More photos below and on my website<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Life is short: know and wear excellent quality motorcycle boots every time you ride a motorcycle!
