Badass boots.  I'd wear em awhile and see if you grow accustomed to the it.  You can always change it.

OK.  These arrived yesterday.  I bought them as perfect factory seconds.  I recognise them as made for the Japanese market.  They are a little stylised and they will divide opinion.  I love them, Paula hates them (but then again, her brain has been fried)…....

They are amazingly comfortable and walking in them is a dream......

And, don't bother telling me to remove the kiltie.  You will be ignored….

Beautiful! That heel is serious. Looks higher than the heel on my Bosses.

Those are glorious G! I like them overall better than the shape of White's packers.

I have a minor nitpick that wouldn't mean shit to you or anyone else though. For the style and supposed function, there is no real spur shelf on the heel. I'm sure Wesco likely offers one, it's just something I would expect standard on a packer and really surprised me to see missing.

I guess those crazy Japs did not want one…...

I hate a spur shelf on boots.  I've seriously considered getting every pair of boots I own that have one re-heeled.

Oh, and Paula's brain isn't totally fried; those soles are definitely divisive.

i will only say the things that i like as i was told i'm being meaner than usual, ready . . . here goes

i like the kittie & the construction boot canary yellow & dodo brown laces . . .  oh & the hardware looks great as well. the leather looks like it will age wonderfully & the boot pairs really well with the Giley Monster or whateva that Alexander Leathers jackect is called 

[Blackheart]

G, those are the shit. They look great on you. Glad you're utilizing Wesco's factory seconds page, I swear
by it.

[trail and arrow]

i saw them in person and i am very jealous!

[Bluegrass]

What's to not like?? Those are seriously nice boots.  And you got a deal.  I'm jealous (as usual) - boot envy…

Love em! Jobmaster last, I presume?

Jobmaster with Packer style uppers are my dream boots. Nice pick-up G.

Wescos are something special for sure.

Wesco, Mmmmm… 
I like this picture:

(not mine ='( )

Pretty sure that's what Giles requested for the IHxWesco special edition.

[Giles]

I'd cut my Penis off with a rusty spoon first..  About the only thing I like about those is the laces…..

[4c]

See that you do, I really like these.  ::)

[Giles]

That's a good thing, but I don't, if we all liked the same stuff we'd be shit out of luck  I have a pathological dislike of the Christie & I don't like toecaps on work boots - both of which Chris well knows…..

[Giles]

A couple of points.

1. There is unlikely to be an iron heart/Wesco collab.  Wesco distribution in Japan is tied up, so it makes it difficult for us to sell in Japan.  That does not preclude me doing stuff with Wesco, but it is highly unlikely that if I did, it would be Iron Heart/Wesco
2. Just because I don't like toecaps on work boots, does not mean that I won't release some….
