@Beerhammer Unfortunately, we cannot make one with that combo. We recently recertified our safety toe boots. We had to test each combination. Seeing that we had to pay for each boot combo, we had to put a limit on it at some point. My apologies for the inconvenience, we just didn't really sell any of the safety toe and #1010 combo's.
@Dylansboss#2 Is there a specific reason you guys won't do a steel toe with an armor tread sole??? I tried to order a pair for work this week and was told no way jose!

Sounds like a plan!

Hi Darren,
The leather on your boots is Burgundy Domain. I am the Sales Manager for Wesco, we don't offer a cordovan burgundy domain. It's a great leather and ages very well.
Hope that clears it up:)!
Cheers,
CW
Thanks for clearing it up my friend. For whatever reason the 4 or 5 pairs of Wesco boots they are selling are all in what they are calling " Codovan Domain" leather?! Burgandy/cordovan domain makes no difference @ all to me. I bought them because of Wesco's reputation and they are(in my humble opinion) some of the most badass engineers I've ever seen. I'll let y'all know how I feel about them today, just got notice they are on the truck to be dropped off today!
Here's just another view.. The retailer in the US where the boots were purchased from says it is cordovan domain leather that is custom made for their shop only? So I'm looking forward to what that shoe box says
The debate rages on!! Lol -
Just glad you are stoked on them. They are the Burgundy Domain, and they are beautiful. We were the first to request as well as have the domain made for us from the tannery, I have heard there are other boot makers out there that are looking to carry it ….:)

Those are beautiful. Congratulations!

What are the benefits or the "Domain" leather? (It's qualities and the proper care, I think I just read, maybe your suggestion, that this leather performs best with "leather WAX"? Thanks so much in advance!

Nice boots, now we got to get you into some jeans

I'm more then satisfied with my 666UHR and Levi's LVC 501zxx… I'll be adding more iron hearts jeans , but my old beater Levi's are quite awesome too.. If you have anymore fashion advice I'd luv to hear it?!
-
fashion advice? hahahahaha
i saw how it went with the leather & gracelessly exit stage left, hahahaha
i missed the post with the heavy 666s

Saw it several times in stores, shops and whatever, online and in real life. Some people think Cordovan is a color that looks like #8 or burgundy. But it´s the butt from a feckin horse
-
The Domain is a little thinner than our standard oil tanned leathers. It has a softer feel and breaks in a bit easier. We recommend on Oil Tanned leathers to clean with warm water and oil them for treatment. The waxed leather is actually recommended to polish. Customers polish our Oil Tanned as well, but we don't recommend it:)

All in good fun my friend!

still looking for the 666s fit flick

Tested the Silicone and the Obenaufs LP on my Domain Kilties. Both look great, but the Silicone treated leather feels better after some "abuse".
-
Got the WESCO Silicone Stuff from V&S, Obenaufs LP from IHUK, but it's more for restoring your leather. If you want something for buffing and a nice shine, you need something different like Lincolns Stain Wax. It's available in different colors. USMC approved.

Hi, guys, thanks for this discussion!
I found this site after going nuts and buying two pair of (non standard) Wescos from their Seconds page. I knew the brand but had very little idea about lasts, options, fitments etc. Here I found tons of useful information.
…and the Iron Heart shirts that look better made than Turnbull & Asser. Nice stuff here for sale, and a great Wesco thread.

"Welcome to the Wesco family!"
Thanks! I'm in a family way big time – 4 pairs inbound. That seconds board is worse than crack. On the plus side, I've replaced all my worn out boots in one go. Er, that is if they fit. D-oh!
