@Shane-B those are awesome!

[Shane B]

@deanclean Yes, it is a very cool boot.

[John Galt]

@Shane-B oooh very nice - this is going to be an IHxWesco collab future release?

Breaking in some Romeos to match the olive short stacks. Really digging them.

[derek111]

Update on these. I took them camping over the weekend in an effort to break them in quicker. I put them through the ringer, and can say they are worthy of the hype. Although I don't suggest taking them hiking, it was one way to speed up the process. I wasn't originally sold on the idea of a heavy "work" shoe, but damn these are solid.

My IHG Wesco boss that I had resoled by unsung house with a lug sole and then I waxed the midsole. Engineers with lug soles are my weakness

Also wearing with my 888s

@derek111 love the romeos. Did you custom order?

[derek111]

@SKT I am really digging them. They are a great alternative for the summer. The Shop Vancouver had some stock in my size, so I jumped at them.

[hgering27]

@derek111 did you get the ones they currently have listed? ive stayed away because i dont love the toecap, but noticed yours dont have them

[derek111]

@hgering27 I did order the ones currently listed. From what I gather the ones in stock right now do not have the toecap. But worth shooting TJ a note to confirm with the size you are looking at to see if they have the toe cap or not.

[FlavourFade]

Had my Wesco x IH Germany engineers for a while now and still love them. Looking forward to wear them more in the coming months.

Can anyone recommend a “heel grip” for their boots? I just got my custom boots a couple days ago. The left one is perfect but the right one has a bit too much heel slip for my liking. Heel grip or another option you guys use?

@deanclean

Hi mate

I would recommend padding the tongue rather than the heel. it will push the foot back in the heel cup, rather than the toes forward in tow box...if that makes sense.

Otherwise Timpsons sell these, but I have heard mixed things

Hope that helps

To add on to what @Jack said, Pedag makes some tongue padding as well.

[deanclean]

@Jack @ZackB thanks for the input. I’ll grab a couple of each!

[NickD]

Try an insole too, that may help.

[deanclean]

A couple quick photos of my custom boots. Wasn’t sure I would like the western toe but I do!
