Gotta say that despite hearing that Wescos were tough to break in, mine are by far the easiest and most comfortable boots I own, and I did;t think that anything could top my beloved SD's.

Which ones did you go for Gav?
I'm toying about getting a pair in the coming months and currently leaning towards some engineers….

I knew you'd come around
FWIW, mine were a breeze to break in as well. My favorite footwear ever. -
Only problem being that all my other boots feel like shit in comparison.

There is something about the name Packer that the manchild in me finds truly hilarious….

I hope they never release it in fudge coloured leather or my inner child will wet himself

My newest Boss's in the Domain leather were like butter right out of the box - but my packers in the heavier standard brown (fudge) leather took a couple of weeks of daily wear to submit. But high-quality boots that fit right, no matter the brand, are pretty damn easy to like - my White's and Viberg's included. I prefer a good pair of boots to wearing sneakers ANY DAY.

Very nice man, congrats!

My wife (as of 12/13/14) had me wear my Wesco Boss's with my suit so I could be taller than her for the wedding photos. I never thought to wear them with a suit but I think they looked pretty good. Here's one of the demo shots we got from the photographer:
Congratulations Clint! They do look good with a suit. I'd never think of that.
