Checked em out today. Great great Boot. The Domain leather is out of this world

[Max Power]

True that.

Aaaaaaaand purchased!   

After a very long decision … The currently exchange rate for €uro Customers is a evil punch in the stomach    ................. but - I can't resist these beauties ... so - hurry up, UPS dude! 

[Finkster]

Yeah! … They arrived. I'm so happy - the look is magnificent and the size perfect.   
Fitpics in a few weeks / months when they break in and first evo / patina is in sight.

Dont gotta wait for evo bro. Post some pics now lol!!!

[Finkster]

2nd day in action (incl. a 5 mile hike) - so comfy and smart … I'm in love. 

[Lukenstein]

They look great.

[Finkster]

After 5 weeks … first evo

[Finkster]

I replaced pimped the original laces with brown/black Red Wing laces.
The yellow laces are too long and a bit too loud for my taste .. and the leather laces are too bulky for the speed hooks - but that's my taste / opinion 

[twism_23]

Looking great @Finkster They are my current everyday boot as well.

[Finkster]

Thx a lot @twism_23
… you have a good taste 

[Hereforthebeer]

Coming along nicely @Finkster , and laces look great as well

Lovely boots! But the laces kinda ruin it for me. I'd use black leather, even though nylon are more practical..

[Finkster]

Yeah  :-\  … but I have black nylon laces in my burgundy RW Beckmans ... I need some contrasts in my boot collection.
Fecking first world problems!

Throwing a quick question out there as I have been looking for a Burgundy boot to add to the collection,…........................how does colour of the Burgundy leather on the Wesco boot compare to Chromexcel 8?

From looking at a few internet pictures of the leathers it looks like the Chromoexcel 8 is more on the brown side of the burgundy spectrum?

Any feedback or comparison photos if available would be appreciated.

[Finkster]

FP1's - now with dark brown waxed laces (can't remember the brand of them)
… very comfortable and smart

@ddtrash:

…how does colour of the Burgundy leather on the Wesco boot compare to Chromexcel 8?

I can't detect a big color difference, between the burgundy Wesco leather and the Chromexcel 8 leather of the Viberg Service boots (for example) … the Chromexcel 8 is maybe slightly darker ..... but my eyes are not the youngest.
