      Also picked up today, my resoled Boss 7400. Swapped in a double midsole, 705 outsole, white stitching and waxed edges.

        I’ve been jonesing for a new pair of Wesco’s for ages. This page is not reducing the «want».

        Those double mids look great.

          @neph93 I hear you! I recently enquired about a similar build to my current pair but in a different blank leather! This is how mine are fairing after 18 months of solid wear.

          The devil is in the detail..

                @Chris:

                Thank you all for adding to this post! The pictures look great thus far. I have some I snapped to share….just for ideas on builds:)!

                Love the looks!  I work in a hardware store and today, a Really Big guy came in wearing a pair of size 14 Horsehide WESCO Axe Breakers. He seemed very surprised that someone would notice and ask about them! They are beautiful cap-toe boots. We ended up talking for half an hour about boots and bootcare. I think my next pair needs to be a pair of WESCO's.

                    …thats them!! Of course I couldn't see the double buckles up top. But wait...looks like you actually ordered the Boss Boot but added the Harness Straps where as I ordered the Harness Boots and added the Boss Toe if I'm correct!

                    ...that sound right? ???

                            Thank you so much. Pretty much just wear them to ride in the Spring and Fall these days.

                                  I have Morrisons with the side pulls as well as engineers with the back pull. I much prefer the back pull. I'm a lazy bastard and it makes putting on shoes extremely easy… once they break in a bit! 😃

                                    Getting really good wear out of the soles.
                                    Thinking of the same build but with a bubble toe & speed hooks in either Redwood or Veg Tan for my next order.

                                          Who's up for a story?

                                          about a month ago, I was browsing Grailed not looking for anything in particular when I came across a pair of the sickest Wesco boss boots I had seen in a while. Brand new, never worn, the guy had to sell em because his wife thought he had to many boots already.

                                          I made an offer, he accepted and when I send the payment trough the PayPal pipeline, I noticed the guy’s name in the email address. The name rang a bell and after a quick google search I found that there is an American stuntman with that name and in fact, it’s one of the best Mexican - American stuntmen around with some impressive movies like ‘Ironman’, ‘Star Trek’, ‘The Grey’ and my personal favorite ‘Crank II’. The guy even wrote and directed his own movie called ‘El Chicano’.

                                          When I asked if he was indeed a famous Hollywood stuntman. He grinned (in my head) and confirmed it.

                                          Today, after 6 weeks of looking every day on the USPS website, I finally got the boots in the mail. Personally I think they are insanely cool on their own, but the fact that they were custom build by one of the hardest working, most badass people in Hollywood who had to sell them because his wife told him to, is like a perfect black roughout cherry on top :D.
