WESCO

…some times that's just the way things go. They feel like a 1/2 size or so too big. Bummed out. I guess if I wore super thick socks it might help a tad bit...anyone ever successfully get a pair of boots to shrink? Like soak 'em thoroughly and dry 'em out in the sun or something?

...really heavy duty boots and great craftsmanship...f#*k!

[Dmart]

Oh damn…
Are they too long or too wide? If they are long you can try inserts, that’s what I do for my left foot since it’s quite a bit shorter than my right foot and it works pretty well.
You think you messed up the measurements?
Other than that, they look great!

I’m already planning another pair, waiting for Chris to get back to me.

I would definitely reach out to Chris at Wesco,and ask his advice. He might be able to recommend an insole that could help to remedy the problem. Are they just slipping in the heel,because that will go away as they break in. Fucking killer boots!

[vaquero357]

…great idea you guy's!!! I didn't think of insoles!! That might be the answer!!

...I hate being 'that guy' but I may send Chris an email just for some advice. Insoles and a little shrinkage may fix me right up!!

...keeping hope alive!!

[vaquero357]

…@Dmart the issue is with the length. They are wide too but I usually go for an E or EE ( I was gifted with my mothers bunyons  ).

...you know what they say about big feet and big hands?...big boots and big gloves!!!

[Giles]

Chris can re-last them. No probs….

[vaquero357]

…@Giles re-last them? Didn't know that was a possibility! What great news! Looks like I'm contacting Chis. Thank you gentlemen!

[Jett129]

I’ve worn my Wescos on the bike in all kinds of rain,and never had the slightest bit of shrinkage after they had dried. I can’t imagine Chris thinking  that’s the way to go. I also can’t imagine him not doing whatever it took to make you happy.

[vaquero357]

…well I'm going to contact him tomorrow for sure, their close so I'm sure he can remedy this. Thanks all for 'pulling me up by the boot straps' and out of a bad mood!

...and here's a knife pocket shot!

[Jett129]

Just when I thought those boots couldn’t get any cooler. Nice!

[kkibbey23]

Chris is the best!!. I msg him every now and then to talk about makeups etc. he write back on Instagram pretty freaking fast too.

Sweet microtech too! I’ve never actually seen the knife boot in real life just on the makeup page. Fits perfect

[vaquero357]

…@Jett129 two things after seeing the boots, #1 I can really see the 'Durango Harness boot' look in the body of the boot where as if I would of went with the 'Engineer Boss boot' body and added the harness it would look more like an engineer boot. Cowboy boot vs Engineer boot I guess. #2 Had I went the engineer route with the rear strap pull instead of the side pulls, the knife pocket would of looked cleaner with no obstructions. Not a big deal, no one see's it, just a thought on aesthetics.

[vaquero357]

…sent Wesco an email just waiting for a response.  Was going to go ahead and order some inserts for them but because their 'custom' I don't have an actual size for them. 11-11 1/2-12, E-EE-EEE? :-\  We'll soon find out.

Seriously smart boots

[vaquero357]

my new Wescos - 11’’ custom boss in brown CXL leather, heels ¼’’ lower and top strap only, #430 vibram sole, tobacco leather lining, lightweight brown upper and white outsole stitching - waited 8 month for them, but the result is perfect

[Dmart]

Great build endo. Top strap only looks great and separates it from the rest. The white stitching is perfect.
I hope my custom boss arrives soon.
Already built my olive waxed flesh custom boot Just wait for the other one to arrive to see if i need to make changes to my last.

[SKT]

Love that build Endo. Hoping next year will bring me my first pair of Wesco boots. Your boots are inspiring!

[vaquero357]

@endo super cool boots man! I would of never thought to remove the strap on an Engineer boot, I would of went with the 'Morrison' but that looks great!!
