WESCO

Go and show is my personal opinion. I ride, and quite a lot. I know wescos have been used by plenty of others who ride. That's why they got my vote.

Functionality and dependability, as well waterproofness means a lot when your on a bike several hours straight in pouring rain. To me engineer boots are like tools for mechanic….

I'm not putting viberg down, If I understand correctly, they are fairly new on engineer boots, correct me if I'm wrong.

And simonc, your comment tells a lot...

WESCO BUDDY IVE USED MY WESCO ENGINEERS from travelling to riding to mall shopping and just taking out my kid to the park or even for a dinner with the wife. i love my wescos i dont wanna take em out of my feet seriously

[davito]

IJ i fully understand what u mean and respect your opinion as from ur long experience as a biker. No disrespect intended. Just wanted to share that I am happy with my viberg engineers. I am not a biker but use em Hard in my everyday life especially walking Long distances in nature with my dog over dirt, grass, stone etc. I am feeling safe in them.
I am fully Open minded this is why I wrote I do not know wesco, which for sure have a great product.
Peace.

Davito, it's all love…

[demonito]

i have a viberg engineers also theyre less comfy than the wescos i can assure that

[astrogoji]

those look rugged as hell.  awesome–is that black fire leather?

thank you all for sharing your viewpoints.

[demonito]

these wescos on the picture im wearing are kindda weird i got these from factory seconds.
the leather on these are NOT black fire NOR black oil but a different breed. maybe its for their japan market cause it has these old school roller buckles and a bump toe last . and 2010 sole.

Just curious, what's the little patch supposed to be for? Just looks?

i think it´s some sort of "protection" when you´re riding your bike that the leather of your boots won´t tear as fast while shifting as it would if there was just one layer of leather!…

[injunjack]

Finns right. they're there to "protect" the boot. Totally unnecessary irl, unless your're ridong motocross or so…

[Chris]

Isn't it usually only on the left boot?  You don't need extra protection for the right, do you?

[Graeme]

Some old school British bikes have a gear shift on the right side. My Altbergs have the reinforcement on both boots.

[demonito]

i think he has some old trumps too

injunjack: buddy yeah i know

[nicecrackaction]

yeah, it's called a gear shift patch.
