IHWE-PO - Iron Heart Int'l x Wesco® - 8" Rough-Out Burlap Pull-On Boot
-
I've a Wesco sized windfall currently burning a hole in my pocket. These are on the cards (but so is the IHWE-05 and a theoretical custom Packer build). I have a couple of questions…
1. The thin rubber heel looks like it could be easily replaced by a high street cobbler when it wears through. Is this a correct assumption?
2. How do they look with narrow hemmed denim? I'm concerned the straps might be an issue in a pair of 555's.
-
Definitely yes for the first question. Heel pads are quick and easy to replace, and it's generally about a $15-20 job.
No idea about the second question, sorry.

Hey @neph93
I'll do my best to get a shot of those today with some 555's i'm not wearing mine today but i think they might be a bit narrow for the pull ons. Unless you're fine with tucking them into the boots?
We've got a big delivery in today so i may not be able to get round to it today but i'll do my best

I will not be tucking them in. No rush at all but I'd like know. I'm afraid the pull up straps on the sides may disturb the sillouhette…

help, they are extant!
I'll never be able to resist forever!! -
I resisted 48 days! I'm getting better…

Eh eh eh…

They work fine with my 666s-19L, that are 7,5" on the hem (size W30L32)
Jeans of the 555 family of same size are about 7,0" (that I can't wear because of my proportionally huge calves) and I think they are too much tapered for boots like these.
BUT, if someone wearing, say, a size around 33-34, maybe he can go on even with 555! -
^ brilliant!
And thanks for the info. I'm leaning more and more towards these as summer boots.
Summer? Mmh… Double midsole is the best insulation when outside is really cold. In addition, these boots are very, very heavy.

I live in the Southern US and these would be my choice for summer boots too lol
Mainly because how awesome they look with off-white pants/jeans

I know, I have a pair of custom boss in heavier leather, with a double mid. But I also live north of the arctic circle…
Point. But what about your winter boots?
Luckily not in my gunboat size.
