@kkibbey23 Those are a lovely looking boot. Can I ask if that is a special order leather custom build? The colour of your boots look lighter than both the CXL and horsehide Brown IH/Wesco Mr Lou's?

No, they aren’t a custom makeup. I grabbed these from standard and strange in California. They are natural CXL
Here’s the store link to the build[emoji41]
They also have them on the Wesco Website if standard and strange is out of your size.

Wearing theses today. This natural cxl is impressive stuff
I’ve still got a pretty good squeak going on in the right foot. I talked with Chris and if it doesn’t go away after some wear I will send them back and get the heel redone.

@kkibbey23 , fyi @filthy recently solved a similar squeaky boot problem on a Viberg by drilling fine holes into the inner sole and injecting some oil into them. Apparently with great success. I’ll add the link to his post if I find it.

Every time I see a pair of Wesco black boots, I'm swayed closer and closer to buying a pair. Those look clean and great!

good looking boots @AdamJ what build is it?
-
It's a black cxl cowhide 7" Hendrik with a #430 Vibram sole

Black Chromexcel with silver buckles

…wow! Ordered a pair of custom boots from the folks at Wesco on March 4th and recently on my account site it said that they were currently being built.
...well, I was just contacted through email from Karen at Wesco and it looks like I'll be waiting an additional 10-12 weeks! :o They're behind 5-6 weeks in the factory due to a plethora of issues and they now have to bump out production times to 24+ weeks!! :o
...they're not accepting any 'rush' orders at all. Karen said she's been working for Wesco for 21 years and has never seen it this busy! Not a bad problem to have but being buried probably is not fun.
...so it looks like its going to be awhile until I don my first pair of custom Wesco's!
It's all cool. Glad I got in in when I did.

…oh and nice pair of boots @Mlwdp!!
Can't wait to see mine! -
Black Chromexcel with silver buckles
Love the traditional/deluxe styling. I’d be super happy if they were mine.
@vaquero357 while that does suck, all I can say is that in my experience the wait is worth it. Looking forward to seeing them here.

It's all cool. Glad I got in in when I did. Got the same email as I have a custom build in the works. As many IH fans here know: IWHWIH. Quality takes time, glad they aren't compromising to hit schedule (like most other businesses).
