Skoob Wander engineer boots. They don’t seem to get as much love as some of the other Japanese engineer boots, but these have turned out great for me. Black teacore horsehide, just starting to show though in a couple of places

These put a huge smile on my face

Thank you @Ross for making this happen!!! ️

[ARNC]

@goosehd I guess that’s why you made such an effort to clear the snow (and with some justification)!

[ZackB]

@goosehd hell yeah man, they look great.

Rios of Mercedes x Black Bear Brand

Black CXL Horween Horsehide

@northsouthdenimguy those are incredibly badass

[SKT]

@northsouthdenimguy love those Rios…wondering how you sized them? Same as say White’s or Wescos?

[northsouthdenimguy]

@SKT

Rios are true to size but I typically have to remove the leather topped foam insert that comes with them and put in a thinner one. Their insert takes up way too much volume. I found that the Wesco inserts for my Mr. Lous are perfect to put into the Rios.

One thing I have not been able to do is try on the EE which may solve the issues of volume and would allow me to keep their insert in. I’ve also heard people sizing up a half but the length is perfect for me at TTS.

I also have a pair of the Marine Field rough out where my feet literally would fall asleep if I kept the insert in

@marco23d

Thanks! Black Bear Brand does some killer collabs

[SKT]

@northsouthdenimguy love the roughouts too. I think I would be fine then ordering my White’s size which is 9.5D. I do love those Black Bear collabs. Thanks for the info!

@goosehd Crazy good. How difficult was it to talk them into making them?

[goosehd]

@Go-For-Chill It wasn’t at all as they had leather set aside for the purple boots listed in the beginning of the thread. I asked via pm if they could use my specifications to make a pair using that leather. It didn’t really take any longer than any other custom build and very happy with how they turned out.

If you would like, I can find my specs and post them here for anyone interested. Please note that builds from Wesco take a crazy amount of time now and I don’t know if any of this specific leather is still available.

@Ross Any idea on what’s left. Also, if you do look to go to the custom route, Ross is the man to talk to.
