Can someone tell me why it’s difficult to resole a boot that has a raptor sole?? I’ve read a few places that it’s difficult
I haven't heard that before. I have heard stichdown is a bit harder to resole than good year welt.
That being said if you find out let us know! I have 2 pairs of raptor sole and havent had them resoled yet. So im interested too

We have resoled plenty of them. The only instance I could see them being hard to resole would be if they are worn down past the 4-iron slip that we attach them with, and if they were a half-slip construction like our old Romeo's etc.

Thanks Chris! Now that you mention it I was reading about Romeos that were indeed half slipped. Thanks man! Any recommendations for cleaning Roughout?

How did Wesco Japan come about? Obviously, there's a market for Wesco Boots there, but i'm curious if it's a business partnership much like IHJP/IHUK.

@Giles have you received your romeo’s yet?
-
@Matty123 Chris may have another suggestion… But this is what I use to clean roughout. It has an eraser and a brush in the kit.
I got mine on Amazon. Works good on couple of pairs I've got.

Yes, and they are great lookers.
They are really hard for me to get on (like, I can't), due to my ridiculously high instep. I've also got some damage to my left-hand big toe (falling down a set of steps when wearing neoprene booties on a wet boat in rolling seas)….
I get them photographed tomorrow, but prob not on my feet!!!!

Thanks @kkibbey23 !

Do you have the custom last made? If so I would think that would help the high instep issue. But mAybe not…..
Looking forward To seeing photos of them regardless. Mine have a lot of
Miles on them already. The raptor sole is ridiculously comfortable. -
Yes, used custom last…...Maybe I'm just not man enough at the moment....
I def had issue with the instep at first… it was snug. And coincidentally I had an ingrown toe nail week after I received them and I couldn’t wear them... so maybe when you “heel” up you can get them on! Here’s to hoping!

Wearing my British tan DR makeup today. These are a real pleasure to wear

Ive got a feeling I'll be pre ordering one of the makeups they just announced on Instagram. Originally I was thinking I wanted a custom hendrik in olive or slate or something but…
Essex looks like such a cool leather and I have a feeling it will be a patina monster...
I cant get over those Hendriks[emoji7]

I'm kinda liking the Robert William shoe with the brown pebble (last image) from the Shoemaker collection. It's weird and cool at the same time…

Cleaned and conditioned my British Tan Morrisons this afternoon after about 7 months of regular wear in rotation.

I had my camera out so I took some better photos outside.
