      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....

                                      These MP Packer look really nice. (sorry if such a boot-toe combo has been posted recently, I haven't been following)

                                          What's the deal with leather/boot fetishes and wesco?  Searched youtube just to see if anything would come up and…. damn...  😞
