      It’s the #705 halfsole by the look of things. If not it’s the #700 which is the same as the #705 but thru and thru. Lovely, lovely boots.

        Not the half sole. I think it's the 700 because it goes all the way through.

        Thanks! I'm thrilled with them. So comfortable straight out of the box. That custom fit was worth every penny.

          Right, I couldn’t tell as it’s in shadow.

          They really are always worth the expense. I have a new pair ordered via Giles. A bit of a departure for me and not what is currently “on point”. More of a Japanese inspired boot in fact….

            Yeah, I didn't do a great job of photographing these!

            So true! Which ones are you talking about?

              They are a custom job. Black roughout, harness straps with brass rings and the OG bump toe.

                  Does anyone have any experience with a the custom fit kit that wesco offers?

                  If and when I do this I will most likely go
                  Through IH.

                  Maybe so. Maybe not

                    Yep! I've done it twice. Once for the initial custom fit, and another time for an update about 5 years later. Best decision I've ever made regarding footwear. I own 4 pairs of Wescos.

                      They sound awesome! Do you have any pics?

                          My last pair are black roughout,you’re going to love them. I almost went with harness rings,but since my other ones have them I went with buckles.

                            Thanks! They’ve been breaking in nicely. They were a bit tough on the widest part of my foot for a while but have really mellowed out. Here’s some photos after a few months of wear. I try to get them on my feet at least once or twice a week.

                                        My Axebreakers arrived Thursday. All I can say is wow! They fit like a glove right out of the box. Snug in all the right spots. The problem with Wescos is that I'm always thinking about what I'll get next.

                                        @brobles Your pair looks good with some wear. Between you, me, and a friend in my town that makes three pairs in AZ. Badass!

                                          That is a problem. I've already sent an email to Chris asking about relasting my first pair on the same last as my new boots.

                                          @brobles Your boots are stupid good. So gorgeous!!

                                            Yeah I just pre-ordered my 3rd pair of Wescos (the FP6es discussed here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=12675.0)

                                            Knowing your size in Wescos is more dangerous than deciding to fight a grizzly bear with a small plastic spoon. I love the versality, the quality, and the comfort.

                                            And wolfie: that leather is amazeballs.
