      @appfaff are those Warrens?

      No, they are a pretty unique custom combo project I did with @Alex [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]

      Take a Foot Patrol add full built out boss toe, 705 outsole, double mids, extra heel lift, smooth out heel pull and tongue, rough out uppers, custom stitching compared to normal FP.

      It was my “Boondocker for a Beefcake” project and oh so comfy thanks to the wide toe and extra lift.

          Thanks man, yeah, major toe action going on!

          I’d redo the build with single midsole and no bump

            Ha those double mids take some serious break in. My Jobmasters still barely flex (just enough to walk comfortably), even after a few years now.

            The toe bump will break down with time though. The double celastic in my Warrens is pretty soft now and mishapen. Though that was kinda my idea in building a work boot with the bump

              For sure - I love these, but would love a more “sleek” model in black [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

                Perfectly beaten in Warrens.

                      Damn those look good with the camel 100 sole. How does that sole
                      Compare to the raptor as far as comforts goes? Anybody have experience with both?

                        My understanding from talking to Chris, the soles would rank as follows from hardest to softest

                        100F
                        100
                        100H

                            No problem. In fairness, my Warrens have the 100F and the sole hardness has never been an issue for me. So a more experienced person with each sole might have preferences

                              I have the 100F in my vibergs and 100 on my last pair of Boss, and the Raptor on my JW’s. I say, don’t mistake softness for comfort. The 100’s are like walking in air compared to the 430 or 705 and much better than raptor because of the pronounced heel.

                                      Beautiful. I need a pair on the Boss toe, with harness straps in this.

                                          Those look great. To your knowledge is the fit similar to other 7400? Seems maybe they narrowed the shaft?
