IHWE-PO - Iron Heart Int'l x Wesco® - 8" Rough-Out Burlap Pull-On Boot

[Chris]

Definitely yes for the first question.  Heel pads are quick and easy to replace, and it's generally about a $15-20 job.

No idea about the second question, sorry.

Thanks, Chris.

With regards to question 2, maybe @Sam  could test them out with a pair of 555's for me?

[Sam]

Hey @neph93

I'll do my best to get a shot of those today with some 555's i'm not wearing mine today but i think they might be a bit narrow for the pull ons. Unless you're fine with tucking them into the boots?

We've got a big delivery in today so i may not be able to get round to it today but i'll do my best

I will not be tucking them in. No rush at all but I'd like know. I'm afraid the pull up straps on the sides may disturb the sillouhette…

help, they are extant!
I'll never be able to resist forever!!

Eh eh eh…

They work fine with my 666s-19L, that are 7,5" on the hem (size W30L32)
Jeans of the 555 family of same size are about 7,0" (that I can't wear because of my proportionally huge calves) and I think they are too much tapered for boots like these.
BUT, if someone wearing, say, a size around 33-34, maybe he can go on even with 555!

^ brilliant!

And thanks for the info. I'm leaning more and more towards these as summer boots.

[Dstauffer]

Looking great! Hoping to see some more pics of these in action.

Summer? Mmh… Double midsole is the best insulation when outside is really cold. In addition, these boots are very, very heavy.

I know, I have a pair of custom boss in heavier leather, with a double mid. But I also live north of the arctic circle…

I live in the Southern US and these would be my choice for summer boots too lol

Mainly because how awesome they look with off-white pants/jeans

Point. But what about your winter boots?

Winter boots are these: https://postimg.cc/image/4fhx5a0on/

The vibram 420 and oil-tanned leather on the Wesco's, and the #100 and roughout on the Vibergs make them both good for the cold season.

The half sole and light coloured leather on the PO would be a winter disaster. But in summer…

These are about as lovely as a pair of boots get.
