          Damnit… a burlap rough out engineer has been my “goal boot” for years.

          @Giles is that the MP toe on those?

                                Yes he has always been top notch and great customer service as you said. He even went as far as to track down the dark navy cxl for me and shipped to wesco. 👍

                                  Yeah thanks , honestly I’m not sure but it was my first pair so guessing 15-20 years or so. Had them resoled
                                  Once. They have stuck around , I’ve had a few come and go but these bad boys are mine forever! They have seen some shit!!!! Literally 😝

                                        Great post @J-diddy ! I'll take the opportunity to ask you several questions.

                                        Great to see your three engineers lined up to allow comparison of toe types. I generally like the low profile toe engineers but I've started considering the other ones as well. What does Wesco call the three types of toe profile? I may take the plunge this year… Related question, do you take the same size regardless of toe type? Do they fit you the same?

                                        Also, are these all custom orders? I see all three have uninterrupted leather heel stack...which I REALLY like. But I usually see heel stacks with the rubber sole cutting through the heel stack.

                                        Your last boot, the olive LTT is beautiful. Would you mind sharing the build details for it? Is it a custom order? Do you size the same on the LTT as the engineers?

                                        Apologies for so many questions but your post hit on several of my Wesco desires!

                                        The journey is the objective.

                                          @motojobobo  I’ll take some of the pressure of @J-diddy  … [emoji1]

                                          To get the uninterrupted stack on a Wesco you need to go with the Vibram #705 sole (there are other soles that do this but that’s the option Wesco use).

                                          Wesco have four basic toe shapes on their pull-on boots, the standard Boss (which you can also get in the «bump toe» variant, I think the boot to the left may be a bump toe Boss), the Motor Patrol (which is possibly the low profile toes seen in the middle), the Harness toe (squared off) and the Western toe (used on Wesco Morrisons). All are available for custom Boss builds.

                                          Sizing between lace ups and pull ons is tricky but the Jobmaster (the LTT boots) and standard Boss sizing should be the same. Some people might need a wider boot with the MP or western lasts although which leather you choose may influence this as well.

                                          Check out Wesco’s website, they have a decent build tool which shows you most of the custom options.

                                            Yeah so I think @neph93 answered the toe and sole question well , I will add that the toe style really needs to be looked at with intention also. I ride motorcycles so the flat toe is more forgiving when shifting. He is right the Santa Rosa boot has the bump toe which is great looking but I do not ride much with these. I also bought these bad boys second hand and they were new. Previous owner I believed ordered his size but these are marked 8.5, I wear a 9.5 or 10 in most boots. I took a chance with measurements on these and it paid off. But I also believe that because of the bump toe it worked , if these would’ve been flat …😐.

                                            As for the wesco LTT , I got those just recently off wesco site, no defects but was on the seconds page.
                                            And absolutely great boot that again I scored on. They are breaking in nicely and are the perfect height for me
                                            8’ . The others are 10 and 6 and these are actually perfect. I do have the build sheet on these but it’s the olive roughout, jobmasters , I believe Vibram 100 sole, red stitching which I love , tan liner. Brass hardware.
                                            I wear a 9.5 in wesco but a 9 in the lofgren. The olive are 9.5e and fit perfect. I just ordered a pair on wesco engineer 9.5e also. It will have a flat toe or as they call it the mp.
