My newest boots:

After reading the review from Jake (https://almostvintagestyle.com/2018/05/02/moto-leather-lace-up-boots-review/) and some advice from him I decided to order a pair of boots from a company I haven't heard before:
Moto / Motor from Japan.

The boots are really heavy, really nice and just started the break in process. These are my best made boots so far.

They are beauties. Look very well made and have beautiful lines.

My Wesco itch has finally been scratched! (as too it seems have my chair legs, for that I have the dog to thank). 

[Appfaff]

Those look brilliant!

Really nice Engineer boots!!

[neph93]

The black is especially sweet with brown duck and the Mr. Lou’s excellent with 777’s. Good choices @GC

Thanks guys, @Appfaff and @andyone I'm so chuffed with them.

@neph93 well spotted sir and thank you, my wardrobe inspiration was stolen from the stylish mob who hang around these parts! The 777 ducks just simply had to get a look in…

Murdered out! Very stylish.

It's my first pair of Wescos and definitely worth the price.  I do love my Red Wings, but there's something definitely special when you see it in person and have it on your feet.

I try not to say mean things about RW as it is decently made footwear, but just like I dropped LVC and Nudie when I found Iron Heart, Wesco have made RW an irrelevance for me. These are glorious. Congratulations.

I like Danner Quarry. If you need a solid outdoor construction boot, these boots tick all the right factors that go into delivering a great work boot experience, more here https://bootsgeek.com/danner-quarry-review/

Not the best shot, my almost 3 year old RW Iron Ranger 8085's

For being only 3 years in, these still look almost new.
Get out there and change a transmission once in awhile–-they'll get some patina

I keep all of my boots together and have tried to capture them in one image . . .

I care for them very often and never let them get dirty! I also rotate between the 875 and the Postman IR. I lost my ACL 2 years ago in a nasty Downhill MTB accident and since then the IR's get very little usage as I find them too unforgiving when walking and uncomfortable for me injured leg. My 875 need a resole and these days I wear the IR's a lot! Yes, you are correct and they indeed look pretty new'ish despite being 3 years old.

Have you tried using Gel insole maybe? They do a nice job as far as the walking comfort goes.
ACL's are no joke and they take a long time to heal. I tried keeping my 8085's as clean as I could, until one time I went into the woods mushroom hunting. They got so scratched up that I just gave up trying to keep them nice. Now they are looking beat up and worn–-But I like it now.
To each his own:)

[the246guy]

Do you have a recommendation for one such Gel insole? I haven't tried them, may be they could do the help that I need!
