      I meant to answer this too. I’d say your footwear upgrade played a pretty big role in your troubles clearing up. I’m sure a lot of quality boot brands would have had the same effect but the Wesco last design and construction is intended for work in some pretty intensive, demanding jobs. I found my feet are much, much happier after moving from predominately wearing sneakers to Wesco, more days than not.

      I agree. I love my romeos

      Maybe so. Maybe not

        I wore my Wescos every day while deployed on a ship, and it was a pleasure donning my boots every morning, and after that, I didn't even think about my feet until the day was over. That's how it should be.

                  @Palmer @Brock thanks guys… I should have known really. My IHWE-5 are made from the same. I need to see what the brown oil tanned looks like irl.

                      I have a sample of it. It's darker and more uniform on the smooth side and the rough side is the color of chocolate. Wouldn't mind getting a pair of Jobmasters with it down the road.

                        I have three or four pairs of Boss with the MP toe in different leathers but got my first pair with the OG bump toe/ boss last this summer. Did them with harness straps and in black oil tan. I love them but I want more or less the same pair in brown too. I love the oil tanned leather for it’s weight and waterproofing but I’m concerned it is too dark…

                              Decided to make mimics of the Lynch Silversmith and 100th Anniversary Horsehide Boss boots with the same exact materials that were offered in Japan minus one or two tweaks not available here (let’s see if anybody notices what is missing).  Notice the price btw.![](http://.[mug alt=)

                                    How would you guys describe the fit for the jobmasters? I really dig the ones @kkibbey23 has from Division Road. I have weird feet so I’m unsure if the toe box is wide enough in a D fitting or if I’d have to go for an E fit

                                      Plenty of room in the toe box of a pair of Jobmasters. I have far more width room with the Jobmaster last over the 9109 (bump toe), and it's clearly more than you'd have on the MP

                                        As far as fit, my feet are pretty normal I've never gone with a E width and I've got more than enough room in the toebox. Its got a pretty good bump on it.
