        It's nice to know that minor sole repair is doable–thanks for posting pics too 🙂

            It's been a rough break in thus far. A couple minor spots rubbing and pushing into my foot as the boot flexes. I can tell they are slowly giving but I can feel every bit of the 20 hours I've been on my feet in them

              After about 40 hours in them, the Warren's have broke in to become the most comfortable boot I own…even over my Jobmaster. Highly recommend the build, I know another pair is in my future at some point.

              For now, my 3rd build has been ordered thanks to G.

                Scored these from Wesco's seconds section.
                Very similar to the Division Road Packrider except the soles.
                This thick arse veg tan leather has already let itself be known as tough breaker inner (as compared to my brown domain rough outs)

                Great score,nice boots!

                    how much will the veg tan darken over time?

                    and what are yall's thoughts on two lifts lower on the heel of a boss?

                    anyone have any example pics of this?

                        Veg tanned will darken. How much depends on what you do with them and where you are in the world. Just wearing them and brushing off dirt will mean some darkening through exposure to the elements, your hands etc. Lots of dirt, water, salt etc will mean you need to treat them on a more regular basis and pretty much any treatment (polishing, oiling) will darken them quickly. Personally I'd welcome that and enjoy the process, but some people don't embrace it.

                        Wesco's IG account and the wesco_japan IG account are great places to go to check out their boots. You'll find lots of lowered heels there, especially on the Japanese account. There are a few pics and some discussions earlier in this thread also. Two lifts lower is the so-called "standard lowered" heel on the boss I think. This means they use a different last. I like the look of the lowered heel but would never get it myself. I have a long torso and wide body so I really appreciate the extra height that the standard heel gives me. If you're tall with long legs then the standard lowered is probably a good idea. It's a matter of taste of course.

                          This is about 9 months of wear on the veg tan. I love the leather. It's a beast to start but breaks in very nicely

                                Haha, thanks @Dishelveled.  I've had them on my ebay watchlist for forever and ebay sent out a 20% off coupon ("C20HELLOSPRING" for those interested) for clothing and I had to bite the bullet.  They've got a few other cool Wesco boots, even some horsehide pairs:
