      Thanks for the recommendation Neph93. Much obliged. I wasn’t planning on getting too crazy but then I started playing around with the custom builder. Oops.

        If you google it and click on images you might find something close to what you’re thinking about.

          I’d been through hundreds of google images already and hadn’t found it. That’s why I thought i’d ask here. Thanks to Neph93 I found it within a few minutes!

              Standard leathers are heavyweight oil tanned with a matte finish
              Domain leathers are not quite as heavy, but are waxed with a glossy finish

                  Standard oil-tanned will take a medieval style ass-kicking and when your done, it’ll be raising it’s eyebrow at you and smirking like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

                    Thank you @spacecadet

                    I did not know that @Giles so that means I could do a nice Miliatry Style Water Polish on the Tie Domain, that would probably look funny as hell on the thick Workboots.

                    @neph93 That is a fact, hence why most Work boots are Oil Tanned. I would prefer a Classic "Lohgerbung" (Veg Tanning) but that isn´t too common in the USA I think. My Grandpa used to be a Shoemaker, they only did vegtanned Leather from a Local Tannery (obviously longout of Business like most Veg Tannerys) with wooden Nails in their Shop, these Shoes were absolutly Rock Solid.

                      Wesco had a veg-tanned option available on their site until recently, also last time I looked they hadn’t updated their site with the new leathers.  So what’s on the site and what you can actually get on a custom build may not be the same thing. If you go through Giles/Alex then they will be able to find out what’s around.

                        I will def go through Giles or Alex, everything else would be an unnecessary hustle. I already thought that there are some Leathers Missing, on IG I saw a grey one for example.

                          I still see builds periodically in the natty veg on Wesco Japan's IG feed. The build-a-boot on Wesco's site has only shown it as an option briefly in the last couple years. It's a fantastic leather. Definitely worth checking with G/Alex or Chris at Wesco for availability

                            Probably old news here but didn't realize Jason Mamoa wore Wesco. I know he wears IH so I guess I shouldn't be surprised

                              It seams that he is Friends with the Wesco Guys @gaseousclay , Wesco posted this too with the Caption: "When you get a text from @prideofgypsies to Watch @jimmyfallon and see the custom Boots you made him, and then he follows up with a post it’s been a good day.

                              He wears them on lots of Events, a saw a Pic from Comic Con the other Day with the Wescos.

                                  I wonder if he seeks out these brands himself, or if has a fashion stylist like a lot of celebrities? Guess it doesn’t matter as he clearly has good taste [emoji108]
