      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.

                                          So dangerous!! Can't wait to see your new boots too 🙂

                                          I really wanted a pair of brown pull-on boots to complete my wardrobe. These probably won't come off my feet for a while.

                                            Well, I'm ready for my third pair of Wescos now. This time in the Boss flavor. What are everyone's favorite black leathers? I love the horsehide but I'm not sure I want them to go brown as they scuff… So stock black or black tie domain?
