          @Chris at Wesco thanks for posting that pic. You sent me a swatch of the charcoal but it’s way more helpful to see it on a boot. Still mulling another build. As I sure many here can relate: it’s not if but when.

          “When” became “now.”  Cash is trash, so I turned it into future boots. Custom order placed in charcoal.

            Man, that build is phenomenal!  I've never seen gunmetal hardware before and it matches perfectly with the charcoal roughout.  Well done  😎

                    Thanks team - short answer to Brocks Q - yes, my thinner denim with tighter hems to interfere a bit.. I should have asked to thin out the shaft like the Mr. Lou - but alas, it didn’t bother me too much.

                      I’ve been bugging Chris’s for the last 5 years to build me a Chelsea boot but he won’t do it… however, he did promise me that I could test out any prototypes.. so there may be some hope for my Wesco Chelsea dreams... lol

                        Can’t they just do a “high top Romeo” with a Motor Patrol toe? Wouldn’t that be a Chelsea boot essentially lol

                                Yes, but Chris thinks he would have to build a whole new last and he doesn’t want to do that… or at least that’s what he is telling me.

                                  That’s fair.

                                  What if you ask for a 6” engineer with elastic panels on the sides?? Or even a zip side??

                                      Thanks bud - they are shorty Morrison’s, with a MP toe, side strap delete and vibrant 2060 wedge done in Black domain rough out, fully unlined.

                                          Saw it too… mine skipped when I saw the veg tanned HH. A chat with Wesco/Chris would be something for the IH Podcast, no?
