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.

Ha, even that awful creature can see the quality.
Yea, I'm in love with these. I put them on after wearing a pair of Thorogoods that have been my only boots for 2 years. It was obvious that these haven't yet been properly broken in, but their potential is apparent immediately. Also, the custom last was an absolute must. Note in the straight down shot how the pinky toe area bumps out a bit. If I had to guess, I'm effectively getting a 10.5 mid and forefoot while keeping a 10 heel to stay locked in. This is why I'm always unhappy with the boot fit: I'm either smashed in the forefoot, or my heel is sliding around.
Thanks for the complements, all, I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes them. Everything came out better than I envisioned, and the result is that I'm itching to put together another custom build. Can't wait to get these guys a little bit uglier.

Interesting question, and I suspect it might be best to contact Wesco directly about that.
I'd be interested in seeing such a build, just out of curiosity.

Anyone know if wesco can build a romeo on the 9109? I think thatd look cool but im not sure ive ever seen a pic of one w a bump toe.
I feel like I’ve seen it done but that maybe only because it should be a thing. I see no reason why not. Drop Chris@Wesco and email and ask. Let us know what he says [emoji1]
