WESCO-MRLOU-PUR - Wesco® - 10" Horsehide "Mister Lou" - "The Purpetrator"

[John Galt]

A look at how my purps have evolved after being in the rotation regularly over this past winter

[Mizmazzle]

@John-Galt hell yes, dude!! Do these evo fast or is this a testament of how hard you wore them?

[John Galt]

@Mizmazzle probably some of both - I wore them consistently in my rotation and they evolved nicely. I’m going to take them out of rotation for the Summer and give them a good cleaning and conditioning and then start again next Fall and see where things go.

These just landed from the 2nd hand market. I’m not a big fan of the zippers, but they were my size and a bargain.

[Mizmazzle]

@Denimhead-0 whoa!

[ZackB]

@Denimhead-0 great find, they look awesome and nice combo with the purple rain

[Denimhead 0]

@ZackB Thanks. I don’t think they saw outside until today, the soles looked brand new.

[ZackB]

@Denimhead-0 anytime I find something on eBay or somewhere like that I swear I’ll never pay full price again, until I do. It’s crazy the deals you can find on some barely used boots.

Here is side by side next to my worn in Navy Mr Lous

[ZackB]

@Denimhead-0 they look great and I’m sure you’ll give them hell.

[SourPower]

@Denimhead-0 amazing pickup, I am jealous! Were those zippers factory installed or aftermarket? I’ve never seen that before.

[Denimhead 0]

@SourPower Looks to be customized order, not 100%.

[goosehd]

The stitching on the zipper is not as uniform as the rest of the boot and to me it looks like someone did it after the purchase. Did the seller say anything?

[Denimhead 0]

@goosehd you’re probably right, looking closer Price was right and I’m going to destroy em anyway. They are easier to remove

[goosehd]

@Denimhead-0 …I’m just guessing at this point, but @Ross should be able to confirm when he’s in again. I think that all of the boots passed through his hands.

@goosehd looking closer, it’s not Wesco standards, so would say after market.

[thooy05]

@goosehd wow!! i need one

[Ross]

@goosehd saw every pair of these and can confirm none had zippers from the factory

[Jett129]

@Ross Just curious...Can you even get zippers from the factory? Just because I've never seen them,doesn't mean it's not an option.. After posting this ,I went to the site and they don't offer zippers.

[Ross]

@Jett129 not an option as far as I know. Not on any of their options lists and I've certainly never seen a pair of Wescos of any variety zippered from factory
