        First day in my wesco’s and my big toe feels a bit sour on the underside.. is this something normal with the breaking in process?

          There can be "hotspots" anywhere, it depends on the boot and the foot. They usually disappear with wear, unless sizing is really screwed up......

              Hoping some of you Wesco guys can weigh in on the Romeo boot. They look so easy and comfortable…wondering if any of you have owned a pair and have thoughts. If I do order some, thinking same size as my White’s, half size down from Brannock measurements?

                I really like these Wesco Zigzag’s that have been popping up on the Wesco Japan socials.

                  @SKT if you do order them, you should go custom! You’re going to have a wait on your hands (unless you’ve found a pair somewhere )

                  My wescos are custom fit and it’s incredible how perfect they feel on my feet.

                      Side note: IH Germany does a horsehide boss engineer make up I’ve been thinking hard on placing an order for. Maybe we can go into this together? Thelma and Louise style!!

                            I think I’ll start with the Romeo and work my way up to the horsehide boss. You definitely should get some! (Look at me encouraging your money)

                              @SKT @Mizmazzle I’m about 2 months into a likely 2 year wait on a pair of custom last build Mister Lou CXL Steerhide (ordered via IH).

                                  @Mizmazzle Trying to patiently wait on my Wesco's that I ordered through The Shop. Ordered Mr. Lou's and made the trip to Scappoose for measuring with Chris Warren. He and the other staff were great to visit with. I'm hopeful the wait will be worth the 19 month (at this point) lead time.

                                      Flippin two years is so long. What if our tastes change and we don’t like sweet boots anymore? What if in two years we want to wear Yeezy Foams???
