I kinda like those:

Need something not so heavy as a sneaker-alternative

[trail and arrow]

bbbbbbbbbbbbuuut the sole?

cheers johannes!

[JCMx800]

I like em, nothing I would put on some winter- or workboots, but for a casual use they are cool

[EastWest]

^ me too, never a fan of a wedgie but a nice trainer alternative.

[Giles]

C'mon boys.  That sole can be fixed…...

[JCMx800]

There are some nice endangered japanese garments on my list before I order some WESCO´s, we´ll see how I´ll decide in the end

Not so heavy?  Wescos with a double leather midsole are definitely heavy.

They are heavy - they are serious boots, not sneakers - and I too, strangely like them!  But then I only wear sneakers to work out or play sports (which is almost never).

[JCMx800]

I hope they are dead serious boots! But @Bluegrass and @Chris you are both right, with not so heavy I meant a black everyday to go boot without a lug sole or a big height. Nevermind

[Giles]

Go single mid sole, something like a Vibram #269 and 6 or 7 inch height and you are done….

Are these blue?!?!  Did not know they offered such a thing, or is this one of those "Japanese-market-only" specials?  Just curious, I'm not looking for blue boots at the moment.](http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=profile;u=8873)

@D97x7:

It's a bit difficult to tell on my screens, is the leather on the smooth out packers very different to the Wild Ones or similar, in shade/tone?

Actually I answered my own question there, it must be similar or I would be able to see the difference.

@D97x7:

The Viberg 'Mocha Oil Tan' is far darker (almost black) when compared to the Wesco 'Brown'.

[D97x7]

Thanks for that, I was hoping there was a enough difference for me to justify another pair of dark brown boots, and from that pic it looks there is.

[dylantbmayes]

No problem at all @D97x7.

You can never have too many pairs of dark brown boots

[JCMx800]

Another question:
Are there different heel-options??? Some look pretty straight and some look pretty curved.

[Giles]

Yep, you can have what you want….....
