Usually I prefer the uninterrupted Heel Stack, my RW Blacksmiths are at the moment at the Cobbler to get the Dr Sole Half Sole + Double Midsole Style done but on a Winter Boot I tend to prefer not to have the exposed Leather undernath the Boot.
I can get behind that, half-soles look good and perform adequately for 3 seasons out of 4, but I wouldn't like to face the winter armed with half-sole boots only. #100 gets lots of stick for the looks but they perform (and I like the looks too).

Haha, i cant imagine man. I wanted to do a custom too. But the sale showed up and…..you know

Those are fantastic! What are they? I'm a Wesco noob.
They look like custom Boss in burgundy or maybe brown domain, on double midsoles with the Vibram #100 outsole. It may be the bump toe last rather than the standard Boss last. The major custom mod appear to be no instep or shaft straps. They do look very nice indeed.

I’m at 10.5 weeks (not that I’m counting) for my custom Jobmasters with packer upper stitching. Shouldn’t be too much longer.

I am personally not counting. I think it’s easier if I don’t know and maybe just pretend it never happened.

I got the opportunity to try on a Wesco 7400 with the MP toe in my regular size and found it was okay around the toe/mid section but way too spacious at the heel even with thick socks and a thicker insole (though it did get a bit tight around the front). Lots of heel slip, far more than I would feel comfortable walking with. I guess I'll be sizing down and up in width after all, but I'm looking to do a Foot Patrol which doesn't even have a heel counter so I don't know. For anyone that has tried on both a FP and an engineer, does the heel counter affect the sizing at all?

I’m really starting to think my wife is on to something. She had stated several times ‘ I think you have a problem! ‘ after having to ‘collect my collection ‘ I think she possibly might be right.
Does anyone else have this problem?
The last pic is of the engineer I received and posted about a few months back. They are coming along nicely. Love this thread and obviously love me some Wesco. I wonder if they actually sponser goons like myself..
