      Thanks for the explanation!

        Is there anywhere in NYC or near by that carries Wescos?

        Also how well does the domain leather hold up? I was about to pull the trigger on some Whites but it seems like I'd be much happier with a pair of Wescos. I love the heavy duty build of them.

        I was able to try on a pair of 10.5ee Boss boots and they felt good minus the toe box being cramped. Do the jobmasters fit the same way?

          @JCMx800:

          I have the black christy on a Packer, if that helps. The heel feels kinda low, if I ever send em in for a resole, I make sure to get a halfslip 🙂

          Both heels/ soles side by side, its not that much difference, but walking in the packerised and lowered Jobmaster is much better.

          Next boot will be Black Domain RO or Olive Smooth LTT Jobmaster with Amortred Sole including Halfslip or something 🙂 Lets see when I have the funds…

          Along the lines of the half slip… What's the heel height of your lowered Jobmaster? I've read that if you order 1/2" lowered heel, Wesco uses a different last with a lower heel and the same toe shape, rather than having the boot lean back significantly, and that every every shape (Jobmaster, Packer, Boss, etc) has a low-heel version. This is most common with the Narrows (1339) last, with the Motorcycle Patrol last being it's 1/2" lower counterpart. I've never had this confirmed, though.

          Regardless, it sounds like you're going to go with a wedge sole, to go 1/2" lower, then get a half slip. Does that sound accurate?

            Getting on board the Wesco train with my first 2 pairs  😘

            Are these both the same leather, and could you tell me what it is? Thanks!

              As both were forum purchases I don't know any of the boots details. What I do know is that they are awesome 🙂

                                            Giles, have you ever thought about doing a Bootery Harness build?  I think a similar build to the bosses above would be badass.
