WESCO

[Engineer]

Maiden voyage of the burgundy packers.  First impression is they're a good bit narrower than my 8.5D Jobmasters, but I think they'll soften/stretch with time.  Already got a compliment on them at lunch.

I'm liking your roughouts, Bluegrass – and Engineer's new boots as well. Must...resist...

Actually, I got a pair that's similar to yours Engineer. They are 8" Burgundy Domain Jobmasters with Packer uppers and the MP toe and heel. Very nice, but if anything they are quite a bit longer and wider than my Groundouts and Boss boots -- though all are the same size. With the MPs I wear a dress sock inside my boot sock just to firm things up a bit.

@Engineer Come on in!

@Engineer:

Pair #3 inbound.  10" Packers in Burgundy Domain, nickel eyelets, Vibram 430.  I'm pumped!  This will be my tallest pair of lace-up boots, but I'll enjoy the added support.

Burgundy domain has also become my favorite leather, and my Jobmasters are my most comfortable boots.  A couple people have asked if they were Danners (   ), and I would politely correct them.  Here's their current state.

@Dylansboss#2 , I need to swing by the shop at some point to meet you guys and get fitted for a custom pair!

More Wescos!

[Engineer]

I finally got around to taking some pics of the new packers:

[Bluegrass]

Wow, Bravo!  Those are bust yourself in the mouth good. Is that the standard Packer heel height as far as you know?

[Engineer]

@Bluegrass:

@Bluegrass Thanks!  I believe they're 1 lift higher.

Beautiful boots and pictures. The leather looks absolutely stunning; especially in that perfect defused lighting.

I received my Redwood FP's today.  Thanks again @Giles and @Winchy!  They fit perfectly, and they'll be a mainstay in my rotation.

[Winchy]

Glad to hear it @Engineer. Enjoy 'em!

Love the plum rough out

[jdl1279]

I like this build

[Broark]

I think those look nice too, looks like a Roper boot.
Maybe done with some different color stitching, or even a rough out version would be very cool.

[jdl1279]

Reminds me of Shortys or PeeWees from the 40's. I want them in RO Brown Domain with RO Burlap counter and red uppers

[Chris]

They definitely have that 40s pee wee vibe to them, especially with the box toe.  Not your standard Wesco, that's for sure.

[Seul]

First pair I thoroughly dislike, really… Not just the stitching this time...

[jdl1279]

Didn't figure they'd be everybody's thing. I happened to like them and figured they might generate a conversation

[jdl1279]

I would add a lift though

[D97x7]

My work boots!

Anyone who has ordered Wescos recently how long was the lead time? I'm at 6 weeks since mine were sent to the factory. I emailed Bakers and they said 16-18 weeks!!
