IHTB-BOBLK - Wesco® 10'' Black Domain Boss Boot
-
How is the heel height (1 3/4") measured? That sounds like a lot, especially when I measure the heels of my own boots to compare.
It sounds like a lot and probably is compared to many boots, but it doesn't look that way on foot. The boot (and the last it is built on) is designed holistically so the way it's all put together means it doesn't feel like you're walking "on heels" at all.

Uh, I kinda forgot about this - or rather, I had some minor car/wall meeting which distracted me a bit from this and made me put all expenses on hold while I am waiting for the estimate from the workshop.
Giles, thank you for the heel picture. I was measuring it wrong, then, and indeed, now that measurement does not seem so scary any more.

Just ordered the 10.5, amazing service, thank you Lindsey!.
This was my last pair of US boots… not sure about the Anorak and my Sister will most likely kill me for posting this but hey it's Friday!@Finshack it's such a pleasure! Your childhood self will be thrilled. That picture is just fantastic, you were destined for a life on the waves
That picture is mutts. Just brilliant. Congratulations again with the purchase.

We lived in Baltimore for a bit, sometime in the 70's, got my love of the American lifestyle then which has never left me, had a few great College sweats wish I still had, and a Baltimore Colts sweat I wore to death. Will post some images of the boots life out West (Cornwall) when I get them Monday…

About 15 minutes East of Bodmin on the Moor, wet and wild…
Beautiful country though. Rain comes down there like no other place I've been. And I live on the coast in northern Norway now.
I can recommend Wesco's bee oil and wax combo for yer boots. Sounds like you'll need it [emoji28]

Off topic, but I've wanted to visit Baltimore ever since watching The Wire (five times).
Interesting- watching The Wire gave me the exact opposite feeling…

Exactly right. They feel completely natural and you'd run into trouble messing about with a much lower heel. Wesco is good at what they do.

to me Baltimore is a great city. Although it hd it's share of "urban renewal" many parts of the city survived. Being from the North I think Baltimore is the first Southern city you hit
on the east coast. There's no denying you have to be careful where you go and what you do but this is true for all American cities. -
