@Damocles Hi! Nothing firm in terms of ETA's at present man. As soon as we have any form of update this will be the place we notify first!

Hey everyone x

Would these need Obenauf’s Water Shield when they’re brand new, as I get a lot of rain where I live.
If so, would you recommend applying two or four coats?

I’m assuming there’s no need to use Obenauf’s Leather Oil or Heavy Duty LP at this stage — perhaps after a while, around six months of wear?

@Damocles

These are in the building, will be going online I imagine this or next week

@Damocles
Hi mate

I think two coats at first should be just fine, then apply a another two down the line.

And yes I personally wouldn't apply the leader oil yet, six to eight months is a good time to apply after you have worn the boots in for a bit, they can take a good beating !

Incoming. This 30 year old bag needs a friend!

How do these size compared to Iron Rangers?

[Ross]

@jdwaid I generally find Wesco to size pretty similarly to Redwing, or at least your Redwing sizing makes for a good starting point to try if you've never tried Wesco before.

If you'd like to get into the specifics you can always shoot me a DM or Email and i'll advise as best i can.

@Ross thanks I really appreciate it

[Damocles]

@jdwaid In terms of sizing the Mr Lous, choose your regular width and go half a size down from your Brannock measurement.

[indigostiff]

What. A. Fit.

[j6550]

Hey there....can I size these the same as my Mister Lou in chromexcel?

[indigostiff]

@j6550 Yes.

[j6550]

@indigostiff Great! Thanks.

@Larkens

Flawless! I honestly think your pair looks slightly better than mine and I thought mine were pretty damn perfect. Congrats

@northsouthdenimguy thanks! I’m a lucky man!
