      It is a regular Jobmaster…

          This jobmaster/packer distinction is becoming very confusing to me!

          @superfuzz
          it was/is confusing to me too.
          i really was looking forward to heavy upper stitching and landed without.

            The look great. I think that the heavy weight stitching would take a while to break in. Even the lightweight stitching on my bosses was stiff for a long while.

              I don't think it is; I think it's a lace to toe Jobmaster without heavy upper stitching.

                  Hello all!

                  The boots are a Packer upper. you can also tell by the Backstay of the boot only having the lightweight stitching. I have a few pictures attached to hopefully help point out the different construction of the two styles.

                      Whoa… The lightweight stitching looks tons better. And probably suited just fine for people here!

                            ^ that with khaki heavyweight stitching would be even better IMO

                                The heel on that looks massive! Is that the standard heel height?

                                    So if I understand the above explanation, this is a lace to toe Jobmaster with lightweight stitching, correct?

                                    And Giles posted a semi lace to toe Jobmaster, right?

                                      And I guess you can get the jobmaster with or without heavy upper stitching?

                                          Hi Chris,

                                          Yes Giles posted the Semi Lace to toe Jobmaster, and I posted a Burgundy Lace to Toe Jobmaster. they can be ordered with lower heels.

                                            Sounds like if you specify "packer upper" there will not be heavyweight stitching on the upper.
