        I'm getting ready to put a custom Wesco boot order in. I'm getting a pair of black tie domain 6" Morrisons with raptor soles, round toes, extra toe cap, and buckskin lined. What I am wondering is: is the added strap a good idea or do they stay on okay without?  Also, please suggest any advice or worthwhile experience you might have regarding a custom Wesco boot order. Thanks.

          I don't follow basketball at all. But they have that kind of stuff at malls, at shoe stores, and hat places like Lidz.

              For an older player you might just have to buy that online. I can try and find you one if you don't have any luck.

                  Sounds really cool. Just curious, where is the extra strap going to be? Also reach out to Chris at Wesco,as he’s very helpful.

                    Same shoe, just imagine the raptor sole and no heel.

                      Looks pretty similar to the strap on an Engineer boot,and while I think it looks great,I wouldn’t think it would have a whole lot of effect on keeping the boot up.

                        I'm jazzed that Chris suggested the round toe… because I don't like pointy cowboy toed boots at all. I also this heels like that are very uncomfortable on my flat feet. I'm so stoked to get these. I have to wait for him to send me an order form though, so I can measure my feet.

                          So it’s a regular boss last with a Morrison upper? If so it’s a similar build to the IH burlap shorties.

                          The instep strap can be used to tighten the instep if necessary but if you have a normal instep it shouldn’t be a problem to drop it.

                          If you want to go for a real hybrid boot you could get harness straps. They are designed for ankle protection.

                              Yeah I'm real curious to see how much the OD process shrinks these up.

                                          could somebody pls explain to me what 'GQ insider' means on IG? Is this a hipster hashtag thing that users use to solicit free shwag in exchange for advertising?

                                            Free advertisements for GQ and the brands they push.

                                            But, likely MOST people using the hashtag only use it because it's a popular hashtag, so it makes it more likely for people to come across their pictures… That brings with it more likes and views, which makes you more "popular", and the more popular you are the more likely that you can leverage that for free schwag
