^ Sure
When new:
@4c:Just got my first pair of Wesco's today!
The Leather:
The burlap leather is really nice and velvety soft: feels like buckskin! Though I will need to put some LP on it so it won’t be so absorbent. It is already starting to show some discoloration and scuffing even though I just got them today so I will be treating them to help seal the leather against heavy staining.
The LP made them more leathery/waxy and keeps water out fairly well:
They darken very easily with regular wear as stuff sticks to them. It's also an incredibly comfortable (soft and flexible) leather and is nice and cool during the hotter weather. I’ve never spilled anything on them and treated them very well thus far and I really like how they have evolved, but I’d be very disappointed if I ever got any crazy grungy looking grease or coffee stains on them. The best way to prevent this IMO is to just keep them protected with LP.
On a side note: these boots are the reason why I've taken interest in the IH-666-WH

Does WESCO offer a black "tea-core" leather?

They are soft in a stubborn kinda way. Could wear em without socks über comfy! -
Thanks! It's the classic boss/bump toe, next pair has a MP toe, let's see how they turn out pretty sure I'll wear em on the 27.06
