I've found a lot references to people selling the white boots for over $100 but this is where I plan on buying mine:

That is what and where I got mine. They are excelent quality. I have heard from several peole that the factory defect ones are near perfect and only have defects like the first time you are going to wear them anyway. Small scuff, slightly crooked seam etc... But I have heard of one person getting them and they had a slight residue of red die left in them so there was a slight pink coloring to them.

Just an FYI my next pair of boots will most likely be the defect ones for $60.

I was going to buy a pair of the CABoots too,but decided against it.I opted for a pair of black Jodhpur boots and spray painted them white like originals were.The CABoots are nice,but the jodhpur's were originally used and I have gone for authenticity.If you look closely,you'll see the paint coming off the boots in ANH.

I got the factory-defects from CA. Great customer service. When looking at the boots by themselves, I can't see anything wrong with them, but if I compare them to the armor itself, the shade of white is different.

But really, I think the children are going to be too awestruck by the "big skull guys" to be making comparisons in the shades of white between my feet & shins.... Laughing
