Lol. Had a similar experience when searching for "foosball" vids back in the day (10yrs or so ago) on Limewire(haha). Apparently "foosball" is some code word in the homosexual fetish community. All vids showed up with FOOSBALL in the title followed by something else quite odd and then finished up with "twink" lol

Is there an insole? If so, you can take it out for the break-in period. Pete at Wesco suggested this when I was breaking in my Wesco Boss boots and it was helpful. Once the leather starts softening up, you can add the insole back.

i talked to kyle at bakers before buying
he had my whites SD on file and told me to use that size

ok i will try that

@bubbapest email Wesco and they might be able to help you out. I sent my MP Bosses back to have the toes stretched and they also softened up some of the stitching which was hurting my foot on the vamp. They are really helpful to deal with.
-
ok awesome thanks.
i removed the insole and it feels like 100% better- gonna go do laundry and see what happens
-
lol
i deserved thatthe pain was actually bearable this time, but i think its more of a factor of just beating the midsole to conform to my flat ol feet. in the middle part of my foot, its raised and its just like daggers to my feet

I was mainly kidding @bubbapest , but after years on SuFu and other forums it's amazing the amount of dudes who don't buy the right size and still complain about the fit

Glad to hear that was helpful. After you get them a little more broken in, you should be able to add the insole back without any issues. Those boots are tough at first, but they'll soften up in no time.

Is it possible to get the JH Classic made on the MP Last and with a white christy crap sole?
Maybe @Giles can help me? -
Aesthetics aside I think that general opinion (i.e what I've read on the interwebz) is that the Armortred soles are much more hard wearing that the glorified sponge which is the Christy.
-
Black Christy is harder wearing than the white… True story.

Seems like some of the Japanese bikers like the boss boot with 4014 and Armortred soles - seen a lot of pics and in many of them the soles are really worn down (perhaps because they've been worn hard, or they drag their feet some while riding which i do as well). it is an "interesting" look. at first I really hated it and lately it is growing on me some.
this is the 4014.
