WESCO

[Dion]

Yep, awesome pair indeed!

[Madame Buttonfly]

First wear today, and so far so good - they are much comfier straight out of the box than my blue FPs (but those are now, after several months, comfy as slippers).

[Finkster]

^ Think, I need some replenishments … 4 pairs of 'worn out slippers' standing around

Nice denim @Madame Buttonfly

[Black Orchid]

Gorgeous
@Madame Buttonfly those Wescos look great especially paired with that denim

[Madame Buttonfly]

Thank you @madmonday and @Black Orchid, wearing my 555-01s which are about 2.5 years old (but I didn't wear them for about a year as I got too fat  - pleased to say I'm now back in them… just...!)

@Roknrolusa:

The beauty of brown domain, it keeps getting better and better tho not captured the best here.

Beautiful! Mine were spotted out and about today aswell…

A little something I am working on with Chris at Wesco….Heel needs to be one lift lower and we're going to re-last on a round toes, not a western.....

So you're basically making my summer boots? FML  ::) 

[Giles]

i want them to be relatively light and easy to take on and off - essential in Japan….

I was looking hard at the burlap for the engineers, it's lovely, but it would be limited to dryish, warmish weather wear.

That on/off issue is very relevant here too. All boots come off at the door in all homes and many places of work. I had to seriously work on my attitude to socks when I moved here. They're on show a lot more than in the UK.

But so I'm clear these are a personal purchase rather than a potential IH build? They look very good.

[Giles]

No, they will be for general release, VMC will likely take them too if I get the build right that is

Very nice. Potentially practical and stylish. I really like the side pull straps on the right boots.

Beautiful. I've just ordered my first pair via G and these look a similar build with the exception of the burlap rough out shafts…. Which I'm now thinking that maybe I should've gotten

[Giles]

You have time, but it bumps up the cost a lot….

[Broark]

That build looks really nice G, I'd like to see it in brown rough out.
Still need to get those Wesco Walking Boots going too…

I thought I might have But I have thought pretty hard about rough out two tone shafts already and although I think they look great they aren't what I want for my first custom Wesco's. In addition to being sturdy and resilient I want them to be somewhat traditional.

You should know that I'm doing the sums and a pair of Wesco's added to the annual budget won't put that great a dent in the kids college fund

[Bluegrass]

@Giles when you say switching from western to round toe, is that the boss toe - or packer - or something else altogether?  Anyway I like the idea of a shorty.  Looks good.

[Giles]

Packer…....
