After many months I finally received these today, and I couldn't be more impressed.  Photos will come soon.  The smell of the new leather is intoxicating…

@Shoreman:

I'm trying to gauge whether or not spending $850+ shipping on a pair of 'bergs is a good idea. ( Brett wasn't kidding around when he said he planned on hiking the prices.)

I wont shit this thread up with the reasons why I most likely wont buy some, but the price is one of them.  Im with you there Shoreman…

At some point you start pricing yourself out of your target market.  But then again the Asian community will pay any price for what they want (ex: Leica cameras)

First post in the Iron Heart forum and it's not even about IH..should I be ashamed?  (proud owner of several pairs of IH denim, for the record.)

Huge wesco fan and fan of any American made boot.  Currently just have a pair of black Firestormers I've had for about 2 years.  Here are the stats of my recent Wesco custom Jobmaster order:
