Update on these. I took them camping over the weekend in an effort to break them in quicker. I put them through the wringer, and can say they are worthy of the hype. Although I don't suggest taking them hiking, it was one way to speed up the process. I wasn't originally sold on the idea of a heavy "work" shoe, but damn these are solid.

The toe cap version adds to the break in period. I got the roller magazine collab with the toe cap and they took awhile to break in. Seems like The Shop got their inspiration for theirs from Roller.

@northsouthdenimguy You got me thinking about swapping my leather insoles for Rose Anvil thin foam insoles as I’m getting older and I wear my Wescos a lot.

One thing that isn’t mentioned is socks. These can make or break a great fit on any engineer boot.

@Bobcat-Sig yeah my black chromexcel doesn’t have any support also. I think the fashion leathers are done like this on purpose.

I think it’s a moot point. Even my leather lined Boss shows the same thing.

My Wishlist of Wesco leathers to come back into production again:

Black Fire
Horween Black Horsehide
Navy leather

Ugh I wish black bison was available for US customers. Would love to build a boot in that leather!

Love my RWs!

Roller Magazine came out with another Romeo collab. Absolutely wild color.

Wesco Romeo roller magazine collab on this cool weather day finally.

I have a pair of mountain lights I got from Stumptown awhile back that are in size ee. They fight about a half size bigger in length. Very sturdy boots! I don’t wear them much unless the weather is bad.

Is black and brown bison leather only a choice for Wesco Japan or are we able to order that as well from Wesco?

Merrells Jungle Moc Breeze I bought from the store AFEW a couple days ago.  Couldn’t find this model except in Japan.  just something different I guess.  Comfy.

Anybody here like Merrell or Salomon? Just recently bought a pair of Merrell Jungle Moc Beeeze for summer shoes.

The inspiration for my custom Boss is for sale for a insane price online.
