Wesco - Production and sneak peeks

[seawolf]

That's quite alright. Green boots would have been fun though

[Chris]

Green boots are fun.  I recommend that everyone get a pair.

[Megatron1505]

Would they fit a UK 10 

[Chris]

I'm pretty sure that you and Giles wear the same size, or very close.

You do need a pair of Wescos…

[Megatron1505]

I really do, I saw some beautiful footwear at Fish and Chips and I'm going to need some shortly. As Ned Stark would say, "Winter is coming".

Before he got his head chopped off! Just saying…

[Bluegrass]

OMG.  I just found this thread.  Where have I been?  With my "boot problem"… I am blown away by some of these builds.  Awesome.

[Giles]

Is that question directed at me?

[Bluegrass]

No, at me  I thought I was well-informed about such things.  Do you plan to sell online, through your retail partners, or both?  You are doing some great stuff - really enjoyed flipping through this last night… I've been eyeing wescos for awhile but have resisted pulling the trigger so far.

[Giles]

IH/Wesco collabs through the IH website and the new Wesco Europe site (will be a few months away), Wesco Europe builds through the Wesco Europe site plus any retailers who want to stock them.

[Giles]

@Winchy  or @dylantbmayes please can you look at the size of the green and brown Jobmasters and post here.

[Winchy]

They're a 10D.

[Megatron1505]

Probably won't work for me unless they fit like a UK10.

@Giles were they too small for you? I think my feet are slightly bigger than yours.

[Giles]

@Megatron1505:

Probably won't work for me unless they fit like a UK10.

@Giles were they too small for you? I think my feet are slightly bigger than yours.

It was mainly a width/instep problem for me.  I was unable to get them on due to my wide foot and high instep, so I do not know what they actually fit like.

[Megatron1505]

I also have a high instep, so that more than likely rules me out to rock the green machines, super shame as they are bad ass 

[JCMx800]

Any samples in +- us8.5? At best located at Vater & Sohn?

[Giles]

The samples are for showing potential retailers/customers what we can do, not adorn peoples feet.  The current exception are the green ones, because the green is not what we will go into production with…..Sorry........

[JCMx800]

I want to be a happy customer would love to order one, but I wanna check out the lasts and sizes. Looking forward

[Bluegrass]

Can anyone with White's and Wesco comment on sizing?  Same/similar? Or Viberg/Wesco?

[Chris]

I wear the same size in all three.  I'm not sure that's normal, though.

More specifically- 10D in the Viberg service boot (2030 last), 10D in the White's Semi-Dress (both standard and Swing lasts), 10D in the Wesco Jobmaster (whatever their standard last for that model is).
