        Update on the buckle.  The prong (or tongue) is too large a gauge.  The frame is fanfeckintastic, so we are proceeding with the stamping, but we will put a finer wire prong on the production version.

            Not Shell.  We will use the area between the shells and the fronts - it is called the "Strip".  This allows us to get nice thick horse, the fronts (FQHH) do not yield thick enough leather for booting.

            I have heard this called the "butt" as well as the "strip."

            Think it, be it.

              Somebody I know has a pair of these coming in shortly. Amongst other things. 😉

              One configuration I've never seen is a Jobmaster lacetoe upper in conjunction with either the narrow or MP last. Potentially because it can't be done?

                      Are these a soft toe??  They are just beautiful.

                      was able to try these babies on today, a really nice engineer, impressive built, loved it. unfortunately there was not a half size bigger around at the store to compare it with my usual size 8. Anyway thats an awesome boot, check it out guys

                      Cheers,

                          The "narrow" is merely an MP boot with a taller heel…...
