      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…

        @Giles:

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

        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 😉

          @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.

              Just let me know if you want some, I'll get em made.  Delivered a pair to @Tempvs recently, I think he is smitten….

                They are just perfect. Running them in with yellow laces before switching to rawhide ones.

                  Damn, very nice.
                  Thinking I'd get them in brown domain.
                  Price is 650, correct?

                        What's the sizing advice for Wesco's then? If I size down to a US8 in Redwings is it advisable to do the same with Wesco's?

                          Those are awesome @Clint_D - very little love for big-footed on the 2nds page  😞

                          @spitfiredealer I suspect it's the same - red wing skips 12.5 so I wear 13, and I and can do 12.5 or 13 in Wesco. I would probably be 12.5 in red wing if there was such a thing.  but i'm sure you may get a better opinion from someone closer to your size…

                            Tell me about it @Bluegrass!  I saw there's another of your RM Williams build on the seconds page.  I think I'd be tempted to pick up a back-up pair at that price.

                                      Looks great with the leather laces, I'd love to see some side profile pics of the shoes while on foot too if you get the chance!

                                        We need to get together @Tempvs so that you, Alex and Giles can have a group "burgundy booties" shot (they look great, by the way)  😘

                                        We've had great feedback about these, considering offering them as Bootery standard build.
