Oh very nice indeed @Palmer I need to five my IHWE-5 some attention and this may be the motivation I require.

I had my camera out so I took some better photos outside.

Some killer builds in here lately. Those Morrison are killers @Palmer

@appfaff are those Warrens?

[kkibbey23]

@YesBlank Congrats on the pickup! Looks really great.

If I lived within driving distance to Wesco it would be a serious problems for my wallet. Just saying.

No, they are a pretty unique custom combo project I did with @Alex [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]

Take a Foot Patrol add full built out boss toe, 705 outsole, double mids, extra heel lift, smooth out heel pull and tongue, rough out uppers, custom stitching compared to normal FP.

It was my “Boondocker for a Beefcake” project and oh so comfy thanks to the wide toe and extra lift.

Ahhh well they look great anyhow…just thought I saw a little bump in that toe.

[Appfaff]

Thanks man, yeah, major toe action going on!

I’d redo the build with single midsole and no bump

Ha those double mids take some serious break in. My Jobmasters still barely flex (just enough to walk comfortably), even after a few years now.

The toe bump will break down with time though. The double celastic in my Warrens is pretty soft now and mishapen. Though that was kinda my idea in building a work boot with the bump

[Appfaff]

For sure - I love these, but would love a more “sleek” model in black [emoji2][emoji2][emoji2]

Damn those look good with the camel 100 sole. How does that sole
Compare to the raptor as far as comforts goes? Anybody have experience with both?

My understanding from talking to Chris, the soles would rank as follows from hardest to softest

100F
100
100H
Raptor

Thanks @jdl1279

Thanks @jdl1279

No problem. In fairness, my Warrens have the 100F and the sole hardness has never been an issue for me. So a more experienced person with each sole might have preferences

[neph93]

I have the 100F in my vibergs and 100 on my last pair of Boss, and the Raptor on my JW’s. I say, don’t mistake softness for comfort. The 100’s are like walking in air compared to the 430 or 705 and much better than raptor because of the pronounced heel.
