      If you go to the Wesco site you can build your own boots,once you’ve done that it’s commonly referred to as your build. Hope this helps.

        The term «build» describes the specs of the entire build. The «last» is the form (traditionally made of wood) that the boot is built around.

        They look like this:

          So, like I read earlier" "a packer build, but on a XXXX last" just means the specs are identical to a packer (ie height, instep, lacing, etc), except for the last?

            They are very nice @upcap. The Latina on those will Be something to

            Meh… my Wesco game is fairly decent. Stops there though. It’s the result of too many misspent evenings (that stretched into nights) geeking out with their build tool on the internet. Probably should have been staring at Latinos instead...

              ok, I'm super confused and am going to sound like a real noob here, but what is the difference between a "latino" and a "latina"?

              A latino is someone who makes neph93 happy.

                The last will affect the instep and height is optional on Wesco custom builds but something like that.

                In Wesco-speak you get the term «toe» refered to a lot (MP toe, Boss toe, bump toe etc). What that refers to is the last. So the standard Boss last (that you have on your burlap shorties) is different from the Motor Patrol last. Both my Wesco Engineers are Boss boots built on the Motor Patrol last. So they have all the features of a Boss (straps/stay/shaft cut/stitching) but the toe shape of a MP boot.

                                  By the way @Giles  @Chris at Wesco  what leathers are available at the moment? I notice that the brown domain and the olive burlap have gone from the boot builder. I’m considering a new pair of custom boss and wondering what my options are…

                                      Those look awesome. Division Road has done really good Wesco and Viberg makeups.

                                      I have a stock pair of Jobmasters coming my way to get my sizing down.

                                        These were an amazing build and I was soooo tempted to pull the trigger…I am excited to hear that there may be a waxed flesh or roughout version in the future  😉

                                            Can’t seem to make up my mind about the British Tan. Looks great in some pictures, less so in others. It seems to have replaced the Brown Domain, which is a shame as overall I think it was the nicer colour.
