      I know @Jordan23  😉 with the now tight connection, talk to G. and / or Wesco Chris

      Custom Made Wesco Boots Jobmaster, Black Rough Out. 8 inch high. Lace to toe. Leather Lined. 1010 Vibram sole, made for "Mr Mudd And Mr Gold" Sweden, I'm sure Chris can figure out the exact specs, with that info…

      and @jvicente86, really only a few, not like other fellows around…. here some pics from when they where new:

                It's a bit difficult to tell on my screens, is the leather on the smooth out packers very different to the Wild Ones or similar, in shade/tone?

                Actually I answered my own question there, it must be similar or I would be able to see the difference.

                  Pretty similar.

                  I'll send you a pic of the two side by side when the wescos arrive….

                      The brown rough outs look really good. Bet they will look even better with some wear.

                        Based the smooth one on that pair you bought a while back, didn't you?

                        It's got that same sort of Japanese vibe to it…

                            The Japanese "vibe" is taken strictly from America. Sometimes they market our look better than we do.

                              Giles, they are perfect…I actually really want a pair of Wesco Packers even though I have the Jobmaster toe model already! Unfortunately I can't justify it at the moment! 😉

                                Hey Giles, would it be possible to get an overhead view of the different toe options: MP, Jobmaster, Packer, to see how they compare? That's something that I've always thought was lacking on Wesco's website.

                                  ^Empty Garage has overhead shots; you'll have to sift through specific pairs to find which toe you're looking for but they're good for reference: http://emptygarage.jp/SHOP/372981/list.html

                                    Perhaps, but the pair he bought was built specifically for the Japanese market.

                                        I've definitely seen such a pic floating around online.

                                          In the mean-time….And the Western-toe is what the Packer gets as standard.....And the Jobmasater effectively gets the Boss-toe as standard There are some subtle differences, primarily the Boss is a little more bulbous and often referred to as a bubble toe....
