To get some ideas what those brands offer, here's their IG pages

https://www.instagram.com/flamepanda11/Flame Panda is only on IG, he doesn't have a homepage. It's kind of strange for me to order and communicate just via IG, but it worked well. For more information about Flame Panda, you can read an article here:

Not unusual for S. E. Asian brands, especially small outfits or one man brands. The stats for mobile phone vs. computer based internet access in that part of the world are astonishing seen from a western viewpoint. It means social media platforms are much easier (and less expensive) as a means if doing business.
I get the feeling these businesses live and die on their reputations so if the product is good and the seem established you are pretty safe.
Thanks for the links.

@neph93 … I love love love the 'shit-kickers'... They are the business and look indestructible!!
Agreed about Viberg... I have a couple of pairs of Engineers and the older brown versions look a lot
more robust and seem to have a different level of finish than my newer black boots? -
@Baba-san this is why Wesco is my boot of choice now. The great thing about them is that they can make boots with a much more refined look now, while still being hard as nails and able to hop clods and kick shit [emoji1]
I have a new pair on order with G-san that definitely fall into the shit-kicker category…

Waiting for these to arrive next week.

An orbiting sander and some obeneaufs could make them brown pretty quickly
