@nofunbadtimes:

@Giles if you go to surplus there’s the same pair for for $95 in a men’s 6.5B

That’s a contradiction of terms…. “Men’s”  “6.5B”

I think there’s a 6 too, and a 6C in their MP boots, if you want to go full LOTR / CHiPS crossover?

A little Frodo Estrada?

(Sorry @Madame Buttonfly  )

Great Wesco. I do remember to look a lot at this one many years a go. A shop based in Sweden with many nice items. No exist anymore.

I'm browsing the custom options on the website. I just noticed that one can add a small pocket knife pocket to the boot…

You can but they’ll only do it on boot shafts over 11”. There’s some lower limit that made it a non starter for me, at any rate. Shame.

Ah, too bad.

I'm just 3hrs away by car. Maybe I should go for a fitting…

Any idea of the difference between a Johannes and a Foot Patrol?

I don’t believe there is one. If I understand it right, Foot Patrol was what Giles and Chris came up with when IH and Wesco dreamt up the design, Johannes is Wesco’s own name for it.

Holy. Flurking. Shnit.

Just got THE EMAIL. Custom Wescos are near completion. Had to resist doing a jig in the office.

Never been so happy to have someone contact me asking for money.

Same here. The four month wait seemed like it took forever. Mine have been shipped out from Baker’s and should arrive early next week.

I got my shipping notice as well. Pumped!

Nice. Please post pics when they arrive. I’ll do the same. It would be nice to see some more activity on this thread.

It’s a good sign for me in that the shipping weight is 7 pounds. Love heavy duty sh*& kicking boots.

Absolutely @spacecadet .  You went with the british tan?  Mine are burlap rough out.

Yes Sir. Ended up going without the bump toe since I already have a lot of boots with a bump toe including the Viberg’s in the pic.
