      @rocket:

      Hey @rocket, where did you get the tan leather laces? I’m having a hard time sourcing some that are long enough for 10 inch boots.

              Classic stuff @tvenuto  I love burlap with the honey coloured lugs. I’m also increasingly enjoying the standard lacing pattern on the Jobmasters. With the right leather:stitching combo it is seriously badass.

              Congratulations on a great build.

                      Ha, even that awful creature can see the quality.

                      Yea, I'm in love with these.  I put them on after wearing a pair of Thorogoods that have been my only boots for 2 years.  It was obvious that these haven't yet been properly broken in, but their potential is apparent immediately.  Also, the custom last was an absolute must.  Note in the straight down shot how the pinky toe area bumps out a bit.  If I had to guess, I'm effectively getting a 10.5 mid and forefoot while keeping a 10 heel to stay locked in.  This is why I'm always unhappy with the boot fit: I'm either smashed in the forefoot, or my heel is sliding around.

                      Thanks for the complements, all, I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes them.  Everything came out better than I envisioned, and the result is that I'm itching to put together another custom build.  Can't wait to get these guys a little bit uglier.

                      And for those interested, from the sales order:

                          Interesting question, and I suspect it might be best to contact Wesco directly about that.

                          I'd be interested in seeing such a build, just out of curiosity.

                            I feel like I’ve seen it done but that maybe only because it should be a thing. I see no reason why not. Drop Chris@Wesco and email and ask. Let us know what he says [emoji1]

                                Amazing price but $105 to ship to the UK seems a lot.

                                  Add import tan and possibly VAT and it gets really messy. That is why IH are Wesco’s European dealers. To be fair it will be a big, heavy package and it’s coming from the wrong side of the US.

                                    It could be worse, Nick’s charge a cool $200+ for shipping to Europe. ::)

                                      There's also a pair of what look like Alex's design for $250..

                                        10” British tan Jobmasters, Standard 9165 last, double midsole, Vibram 700 outsole. Thought I would be getting packer uppers instead but this is great for me without the heavy white stitching. Plus it makes it unique compared to my other boots.



                                        Plus one is the sun.
