WESCO

The reason I asked is because they look like such a rich brown color. Is that how the look out of the box,or have you conditioned them. Thanks for the info.

[seawolf]

Straight out of the box! It could just be the lighting in my workshop.

It’s the #705 halfsole by the look of things. If not it’s the #700 which is the same as the #705 but thru and thru. Lovely, lovely boots.

[seawolf]

Not the half sole. I think it's the 700 because it goes all the way through.

Thanks! I'm thrilled with them. So comfortable straight out of the box. That custom fit was worth every penny.

[neph93]

Right, I couldn’t tell as it’s in shadow.

They really are always worth the expense. I have a new pair ordered via Giles. A bit of a departure for me and not what is currently “on point”. More of a Japanese inspired boot in fact….

[seawolf]

Yeah, I didn't do a great job of photographing these!

So true! Which ones are you talking about?

[neph93]

They are a custom job. Black roughout, harness straps with brass rings and the OG bump toe.

[Matty123]

What is this OG bump toe u speak of?

[Matty123]

Does anyone have any experience with a the custom fit kit that wesco offers?

If and when I do this I will most likely go
Through IH.

@Matty123:

Yep! I've done it twice. Once for the initial custom fit, and another time for an update about 5 years later. Best decision I've ever made regarding footwear. I own 4 pairs of Wescos.

They sound awesome! Do you have any pics?

[neph93]

I think they’re still 10 weeks away. But pics galore when they arrive [emoji1]

[Jett129]

My last pair are black roughout,you’re going to love them. I almost went with harness rings,but since my other ones have them I went with buckles.

Thanks! They’ve been breaking in nicely. They were a bit tough on the widest part of my foot for a while but have really mellowed out. Here’s some photos after a few months of wear. I try to get them on my feet at least once or twice a week.

Oof! I just finished up a 16 week wait!I know how you feel. Can't wait to see them when they arrive.

[seawolf]

Okay, I feel like I owe you guys some better pics.

[Jett129]

They’re still awesome!

My Axebreakers arrived Thursday. All I can say is wow! They fit like a glove right out of the box. Snug in all the right spots. The problem with Wescos is that I'm always thinking about what I'll get next.

@brobles Your pair looks good with some wear. Between you, me, and a friend in my town that makes three pairs in AZ. Badass!
