and i don't even see a custom wesco packer on baker's website?!?! or build-a-boot… did you just talk to kyle?

@Superfuzz, Ah hah great and very relevant question, because the new stuff has a grey pull up quality to it, and does not have the same aniline finish. I wanted a more dress leather. I kinda feel like I'm taking a gamble with the new black tie, but figure it must be good, seeing as they've replaced the existing stuff. Just wish they offered a brown base/black aniline finished leather for patina purposes…

@bluegrass, yessir, just MSG Kyle

I thought Baker's couldn't sell the 1339 last (the MP toe with the taller heel), for licensing reasons or something like that?  Anyway that's good to know…

Also, do you need a liner with the domain leather?

[Bretro_]

They line the vamp as default, quarters no. The new domain absolutely does not need a liner in uppers not sure about the old stuff though

As for the 1339 last; my understanding is the 5yr lisencing agreement is up

Wesco Jobmaster,,,stunning pair of boots,,,Friday you are a legend,,,I finally own a quality pair of shitkickers,,,,

[Andreas1965]

New Highliners. Stock model,  from Boot Werks Fort Lauderdale. Surprisingly comfortable out of the box.  Now I need Boss Boots.

[Aetas]

They look nice. Hope you put all your boots on the sale thread after marriage. 

[Andreas1965]

Forget about it.  The wife wants a pair,  too.

[Aetas]

Your wife knows how to please you. 

[Andreas1965]

My wife is better than winning the lottery. She's more than I ever deserved. And she'll look so damn sharp in Wesco's.

Im glad you like them boots matey. Wear them in good health.

[Andreas1965]

What do you guys think?  It's the steel toe version.  Yay  or nay?

[Giles]

Depends what you are going to do in them.  They are monster serious…..

[Andreas1965]

That's what I thought. Basically walking around in them… I don't do physical work,  except some gardening.

[Seul]

Get some nice  ::) s instead…

[Megatron1505]

Honest opinion….

• They'll last forever.
• They will be complete indestructible.
• They're boring as fuck.

[Chris]

Don't buy them unless you really, truly love them.  Because they're going to last forever, and frankly, they're pretty damn ugly.  Semi lace to toe is Wesco's worst looking option and the steel toe makes them really bulbous in profile.

[Andreas1965]

Thanks guys for talking me out of them. They're a steal, have been ordered by some dude that didn't pick them up at the store. But the more I think about them and look at the picture, the more I'm willing to let them go.
At the moment I'm happy with my Highliners and adding a pair of engineers to the collection makes much more sense.
