WESCO

Wesco’s lasts are not “roulet” like Vibergs.. I don’t think you would need a custom last to get a good fit. Order a few try in boots from Giles and see what size works best and then customize a platform you like.

Thanks guys!! They were influenced by multiple boots I have always loved but could never justify.
It took a while because the 2060 is not a sole Wescos traditionally stocks - and maintaining the Morrison profile with some boss bits and details was fun.
I finally skipped them on and immediately they are like slippers - insanely comfy but even more than other boots with similar soles due to Wescos liberal use of leather in the footbed.
Exceptionally happy as they are Black Tie Domain RO so the inside is as luxurious as the exterior!
Little details like khaki stitching behind the back pull and untreated natural welt I thought made them shine

Those customs are awesome.
Been wearing my IHxDRxWesco’s for a couple weeks now. Just swapped the black horsehide kiltie in place of the brown. Thinking black rawhide laces could be good. With XHS too.

Thanks for the kind words everyone, Wesco did a knock out job at building them.
And glorious boots ^^^
Highly tempted for them to be my next pair as I’ve always wanted a Jobmaster and these are stealth cool..

General question about Wescos sizing — how do they run? Are they like (most) Red Wing or Lofgrens where it's a whole size down (in my experience), or is it more your normal size.
Curious because I wear a US 13 and didn't see that Wesco even make one, but maybe they do. Kinda interested in some Romeos.

I wear the same size in my RW Iron Rangers as a wear in Wesco Jobmasters which is a Size down from European Lasts like Loake, Dinkelacker and other and two Sizes down from Nike Shoes like the Balzer SB I wear to skate.

Wesco will make any size you could need. They've posted a build for an amputee. Take your Brannock size. If it's not readily available contact chris@wescoboots.com

I always wanted a boot in Natural Chromexcel…and here it is. The craftsmanship on these boots are impeccable!
-
Very good. Hope you’ll share more pics as they progress. With that glow already, worn in will be even better.
-
Yup, those look really nice!

Glorious boots. That leather looks fantastic, the depth of colour and the varaiations are really eye-catching.
The pull up on this leather is something else.
-
Those are some seriously badass boots @teddyjay. Please post more pics as you start to break them in!

just talking 'shit kickers' with @neph93 on the Viberg thread prompted me to post a pic of my custom Jobmasters 1 year down the line.
These have been extensively worn in the colder seasons and are developing a nice patina, having just been cleaned and oiled the once
