      @demonito:

      for me wescos are mutants of viberg and whites theyre not as expensive as vibergs but are better made and more comfy than whites. i like wesco so much! seriously i have a couple of pairs of them.

      (…)Still I agree their finish is more sophisticated in some miniscule details compared to White's, but build quality as in sturdiness and materials isn't superior IMHO.
      (...)

      I'm going to have to disagree with you about the sturdiness and build quality of Wescos.  Every pair I've ever owned have been damn near bulletproof. (…)

      Sorry, I meant Wesco's aren't superior to White's in terms of sturdiness and quality of materials. both offer superior quality, but I agree that often Wesco shows more attention to detail and I have seen White's that left the factory with unevenly lasted uppers. Judging from their factory seconds, their QC seems to be very thorough.

      I still think the proportions on the jobmasters are somehow odd. reminds me of old camper or the thorogood roofer boots.

            Those seem a bit… impractical.  Perhaps if they were more like 8-10" tall?  Beautiful color leather, though.

              G,  I can totally see the appeal. Did you ever get a pair of Wescos? I thought I saw in a thread somewhere that you bought a pair somewhere.

                                    I like the shorter ones better.  When are your Beck's boots supposed to show up, by the way?
