@georgeel:

@neph93 amazing boots!

Thank you, sir, and likewise. We're lucky men

@Appfaff:

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

White? That's an interesting idea!

Not exactly the best pairing, but funny enough. I believe.

This is for fun, I usually wear boot under my jeans, not like this 

but, by the way, the ones in this photo were a pair of LVC 501Z, which are about 7" hem (same of 555 and 777 in my size, W29 L32). This is the only way you can wear TBWE-PO with those.

Only denim bleeds.

I hope these stick around for a long time.  Best looking boot ever.  I bought the Red Wing Pecos like a month before seeing these so won't be able to justify the purchase for a while.  But if these are still around there's no question.

[Appfaff]

@Goosyphus - if it helps to justify, I will say these and the RW Pecos are very different in nearly every aspect. I too have the pecos, and I had the wesco samples in the smooth out, full height version of these and can attest to how different they truly are.

The wesco have a round toe, while the pecos has a more classic roper toe. the color of the two is also vastly different. The wesco is more of a light tan while the pecos are almost orange. Also, the sole and heel is really what sets the two apart - the wesco has the double mid sole and the higher heel, which works much better for jeans with lager leg openings and thicker cuffs. While the RW looks fine with straight tapered bottoms, the wesco will look fantastic with straight and slim straight models as well as the slims due to the shorter shaft.

I like my pecos, but these would easily overshadow them in very way possible.

@Goosyphus Just ordered a restock….

[Goosyphus]

Thanks @Giles and @Appfaff

@Appfaff I didn't mean to imply they were so similar - more that I personally have a hard time justifying 2 pairs of pull-on boots at same time based on money.  I appreciate the details though.  Did you order same size in both boots?  I have 8.5 in the pecos and they fit well.  Would you recommend same size?

Thanks again.

[Appfaff]

@Goosyphus - I wear a 9.5E in the Pecos and would be a 9.5D in the wesco.  Hope that helps!

[neph93]

Is this the standard boss toe? Doesn't look like the MP toe, but I that could be because the balance of the boot is different to what I'm used to…

[Giles]

It's the Boss not the MP toe….

[neph93]

It's very, very nice… I keep coming back to ogle.

I may have to grab a pair on that restock. @Giles, any approximate timeframe on when Wesco will have these done? Just curious for budgeting purposes….

[Dstauffer]

Hey @Giles I just confirmed with Wesco my size for these and am wondering if any more 11Ds will be in restock.

[Giles]

Restock is due very soon (inc 11D)

[Dstauffer]

Sweet! I let these slide by when they were first released and have sincerely regretted it.

[Dstauffer]

@Giles I know you said the restock is due soon and you pretty much pass on information as you find it out, but I was wondering if you knew if the restock expected this month or in May? We are in the process of selling our house so I am just trying to anticipate expenses accordingly. Thanks!

[Giles]

I think it'll be a May restock….

[Dstauffer]

@Giles any word from Wesco on when the restock will be available?

Hoping to pick these up before the F/W releases eat up all my money…

[Giles]

I have a  load of boots inbound, I hope that these are amongst them….
