forget the flattoe frenzy and buy bumptoes

Me thinks that people believe that ALL old engineer boots had flat toe, but they had soft "bump" toe that then during the use collapsed, creating "flat toe" which all who wear engineers because of the hype crave for.

I might be wrong though….

@injunjack:

It's just more comfortable (for me anyway)!

I need that extra room. My toes need space to move up and down. I don't have the bump toe last, just the regular Wesco last for the Boss boots and for me it's the perfect amount of room.

your wife kicked your a$$ again huh?

go ahead & get up, boots & jeans look good.

injun i don't know if folks are going for the "vintage" look or that's just what's happening now a days.  always fun (for me anyway) to read your posts

[superfuzz]

Injunjack, some people like the look of a vintage flattened toe, why do you care what someone else thinks looks good? Wear what you like and other people will wear what they like.  And I'm pretty sure you're wrong about all vintage boots being bump toes that flatten. Look at ads for engineener boots from the 30's, the toes aren't totally flattened but they already have a low profile.

Interesting how the wait times for Wesco never waivers much - seems like it flexes with the seasons for White's.  In any case, they will be well worth the wait.  Fortunately don't have to walk around barefoot  :)…

Getting my oil changed. Hey look! Boots!

[Finn666]

damn…even though i'm not a big wesco fan, those are pretty boss!
thanks for sharing Z.

[seawolf]

You're not a Wesco fan because you don't own any

[Finn666]

that could be true! ^^

MPs sent back for stretch today… I wanna get this last figured out to a T as I'm all but settled on the mp packers

[theblackgoat]

My Western Boss boots at about a year of wear.
probably my favorite and most comfortable pair of boots i own

[superfuzz]

Is that black fire or standard black leather?

[Bluegrass]

These just popped up on the Wesco Facebook site - I really like 'em.  Packer with MP last (I think) - not sure what leathers but it is a good look.

[khaki8]

I ordered a pair of those in the their new brown pullup leather. Can't wait.

[Bluegrass]

Nice.  how did you order? i don't see any option for the MP last on the custom packer.  you just call and tell them what you wanted? is the brown you are referring to the new one everyone is buzzing about?

[khaki8]

I called and spoke to Chris. He was very helpful. This new stuff is not on the site.

[Bretro_]

Khaki, what was your full spec? I plan on pulling the trigger via Bakers within the week.

Right now just trying to decide on soles and natural or brown mids; I'm 99.9% sure I want 269s

But 705s could be really cool too
