found those on ebay yesterday. thought they might be of interest to this buckle discussion
-
I'd go with the black laces and no kiltie, but other than that personal aesthetic difference, those are fantastic looking.
-
Not advice, just my preference. They're your boots, so wear them how you like them. Feel free to tell me to keep my unsolicited opinions to myself.

Those look great Friday, no matter how you wear them.
I got three pairs from their factory seconds page,
two pairs were new and one pair had a tiny oil spot on the tongue gusset…Can't see a fly on a running horse! -
@Blackheart; Thanks.
Thanks Moonshine and they are size 10E which imo fits tts. I am a 10US in most shoes/boots and a 9UK in vibergs. The wesco fits me perfect an should I go down 1 size would definitely be too tight but going a half size bigger, would fit the same as my viberg which gives almost 1 inch room for the toes.
oh, and i like those raw laces on those boots.

Hmmm…Wonder if latigo tan leather laces would look good in my veg tan Jobmasters...

I'm currently on my second pair of Jobmasters. Also, just ordered these bad boys earlier tonight:
CUSTOM BOSS

+Double Midsoles
+Pull Straps
+Buckled Instep Straps
+Standard Length Instep Strap

+Black Outsole StitchingClint, did you get these? Have a pic? I'm curious how the Engineer Boots look without top strap but with pull tabs.
-
Wesco had all of their black fire leather backordered so I changed my original order to burgundy leather, with the 430 sole and all black stitching. You can see the pictures of them back on page 8.
Do you have any pics of the boots broken in? They look great! How do you like the pull tabs instead of a top strap? I'm thinking of ordering a custom pair with no top strap but a pull tab at the back instead. Nice boots!
-
I haven't worn them nearly as much as I should be but I'll try to get some more pictures up. I'll try to get some pics with some natural light so you can really see the true colors of these. It never even really crossed my mind to even consider top straps, I think that pull tabs are more functional and they just look like they belong on a boot like mine. That's just my personal preference though.
