WESCO

[Omega Man]

Ok, a few questions here.  I visited bakershoe and looked at the custom Wesco page here:  http://www.bakershoe.com/clothing.cfm/department/mens/gear/bootsshoes/product/custom-wesco-jobmaster/
Is the price correct?  A customized pair with the same price as their regular offering?
How does Wesco compare to Whites?  I am a 8.5 in Redwings and generally a US9, am I a 8.5 in Wesco as well?

[Jordan23]

The price isn't the same. You have to choose your options and add it to cart. Then the right price will shown.

A custom pair of Wescos on Baker's site seem to cost a lot more than their starting price.  That's one point I'd have to give to White's.  Those usually don't end up being much more than the base price unless you go wild.

How'd you get a picture of Seul's custom order?

He said pants, not skirt…

[Chris]

You could try them with a pair of jeggings.  I bet that would look dead sexy…

[Seul]

Holy cow just imagine that hahaha

[Chris]

I feel like I need to bleach my brain just for suggesting it.:)

[Seul]

Twelve-pack of Belgian triples should do the trick… You'll remember nowt tomorrow... Not even why you're in a skirt, sucking your thumb, smelling of wine...

[nicecrackaction]

Sorry can't find my jeggings at the moment to present to you how ravishing that looks. Anyway, here are two more pics after some weeks of wear:

The color looks more like this in the flesh:

You didn't consider buckskin lining Clint?

[Clint_D]

I live in Austin and I figured less layers=less heat which is vital in summertime!  My two previous pairs were unlined as well and I was more than pleased with them so I'm sticking with what I know works.  I probably could have done well with Cambrelle but I'm sure I'll be happy either way.  The hardest part is going to be waiting 14 weeks for them…

[simonc]

Yes, 14 weeks of "when o when o when…"
