We drove 2.5 hours to get custom made work boots for my husband. Excellent customer service. The store is very clean, organized and put together well. The staff is knowledgeable and experienced. Highly recommend and would make the drive again.

Awesome people, awesome product. I appreciate handmade made in usa quality goods. Thank you to all who are involved at White's, the phone representative, all the people who make the boots, cutting the leather, sewing and stitching, lasting, bottoming, finishing and management. Thank you!

Pricey? Yes. Well worth it? Also yes. I love when one walks into the store, one can hear the hammer pounding of boots. This store is true blue Americana. They don't skimp. The prices are outrageous. But like we hear, you get what you pay for.
The White's Boots tradition has its roots in the logging country of West Virginia back before the Civil War. It was there that Otto White's father & grandfather made calked boots for the logging industry.
In 1902, the tradition was carried west when Otto and his father moved to St. Maries, Idaho. Then in 1915 they moved to Spokane, Washington where, under Otto's guidance, the business flourished.
Otto White's desire was a simple one: Make the finest work boots in the world! This single-minded ambition drove Otto to excel at his craft. His insistence on quality infected the workers of his growing business too, and the White's reputation grew with every pair of boots that came out of the shop.
