Blackheart do you own any vibergs? If so, are they the same size u take in your wesco's?

[Blackheart]

No PP, I don't have any Vibergs yet…But my Wescos fit like the rest of my boots in length.

[Giles]

I find them weirdly attractive…..(but then again, they are a pair of boots....)....

[mclaincausey]

Swap the roughout for some 21 or 25 oz denim

[derivative666]

I could see them on a teenage goth chick circa 1993

[injunjack]

I'm with G on this….

[Nerkg]

I think they look pretty good, other then the huge celastic toe showing, or steel toe. Either way don't like that part

[seawolf]

That's the steel toe. Jobmasters have a much lower toe profile without the steel toe. I agree though, the fact that you can see the steel toe is unattractive. Great boots nonetheless.

[seawolf]

Those are stunning!

[simonc]

Yeah, agreed, nice Yolo, what is the spec on those?

[Giles]

There's usually some of that build in here (go to factory seconds):

Here you go:

JOBMASTER

E 8" Two-Tone Lace-to-toe 700 [J-1326] custom style; burlap quarters and backstays all else burgundy; natural sole edges and heels New $368

[Yolo]

Yup! Thats the specs.. For that price, i could not resist..

I just want to give a shout out to Wesco's customer service. I just got my MP Boss boots back after having the toes stretched and the stitching softened on the vamp. They comped the shipping fees and the job was perfect. The folks at Wesco are great to deal with. Now back to breaking them in.

[Yolo]

Nice pictures!! Lovely boot.. Cant wait for mine to come..
Weirdly..I also have the very same burgundy cxl whites boot u posted..

Hi
Could anyone please let me know the exact sole spec
On these beauty's including the heel
Many thanks
@vintage_engineer_boots:

A really cool Cat and blog reader of mine gifted me these MP toes just out of the blue.  He recommended I swap out the factory buckles and so I did just that with my custom roller buckles.

[superfuzz]

It's hard to know the exact sole, my guess would be a Vibram 430 or Vibram 700. And the heel is the standard Motor Patrol heel from Wesco. VEB is on the forum, so he would know the exact sole.

Check out this link for what these same boot look like now, with the Takeshi Okuyama re-sole!  Yum.

Thanks for the info
I'm currently looking to
Pick up a used pair, but if I do order from new
It's good to know what I'm ordering!

As for the new look on these boots…..wow!

[Bluegrass]

Ohhh yeah… Wow2.

[superfuzz]

That resole is sick! I wonder how stiff those are!
