      😃  I love the way the black roughout looks new, I’m just wondering how difficult it will be to keep them looking that nice. I haven’t owned any roughout shoes before.

            I came to the realization that my Red Wings were in desperate need of a resole and weren’t going to make it another 2-3 months while I waited for a custom pair, and I have no other shoes that work for my job, so I just ordered a stock pair of these. I’ll see if the brown stitching grows on me, otherwise there’s always the black Sharpie option I guess. 😬

              Congratulations!

              I have brown stitching on both my black Wesco Engineers. One roughout, one not. I find it very subtle and and not in contrast at all. Unless you’re going for a totally murdered out pair with black midsoles, eyelets and everything then the brown touches just add depth to the colourway. I have a feeling you’ll be happy [emoji6]

                I’ve seen some “in the wild” pics where it’s super subtle, but in a lot of close up pics it’s a lot less so and almost looks pinkish-purple. There’s a guy on Instagram that waxed his and they look amazing, almost looks like he dyed the stitching:

                  That works for sure. Very cool. I'll look forward to hearing what you do…

                    Originally it was the one thing I didn't like about Wesco boots: the (colour of the) stitching… As of right now, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world...

                          🥰

                          After a few hours worth of wear it seems that the break-in process I was bracing for isn’t going to be an issue. These aren’t as snug as I was bracing myself for them to be so I think it’s going to be smooth sailing.

                          These are made from the oil-tanned leather, correct?

                            Man they look awesome Chuck and dont worry about the roughout, it’s pretty bombproof.
