      I sent my beloved Russell Mocs back for their 3rd rebuild in 5 or 6 years….Amazed at how good they look....

      But, I did take the opportunity of getting another pair made at the same time "just in case"…..

        Love it G! I was thinking of doing the same last week, but don't want to go without mine! How quick was your turnaround on the new ones?

        Out with the new! In with the old!

            @Giles if I wanted to order a pair of these, what are they actually called? I had a quick look through the Russell Moccasin website but not sure that I saw that exact makeup.

                @Giles thanks, and for reference what size are you in these?
                Going 1/2 size up from you seemed to work for my Vibergs, so I'd assume that would hold true here

                        A favourite in my collection is a pair of hand made in New Zealand, McKinlays.  These ones were custom made for the 'Bureau Belfast'.  Very light, very comfortable and in my opinion pretty stylish.

                              Thanks. They are very nice Russell's. I always think Russell's look better on the Munson last for some reason.

                                I didn't want to clutter up the Wesco or whites thread with this question so I'll ask here.

                                Wesco Jobmaster vs Whites Bounty Hunters for everyday abuse and work. The Wesco look heavy duty with the stitching and everything which I'm into. But I also like the stream line of the bounty hunter.

                                Can anyone with both chime in and comment which they prefer and why?

                                Wesco every time.

                                Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                                Well, I have others.

                                  @Authentic04, I have both and that's ultimately where you want to be - with both, that way you wont need to worry about which you prefer and why  😉

                                    Just bought these Caterpillar boots off eBay. not sure exactly what they are, but have steel toe caps and commando soles, though they looked like a smoke jumper boot.
                                    what do you think ?

                                      Are these the brown domain IH collabs? If so you just made my mind up. Those are gorgeous.

                                            They are effectively these.
