It is, wanted them to be as waterproof as poss….
Very sensible choice, and I can attest that they will be. There is a pic of my black oil tanned boss somewhere here in six inches of icy water. My feet remained dry that day.
I’m impressed by the look of it. Any chance you could photograph the roughout inside of the shaft. I am formulating plan…

Dumbass question: if I do a custom order through you, can you ask Wesco to find and use a lighter tan like this, assuming some batches are darker?
I’ve been researching the brown oil tan for a while and couldn’t get a bed on the actual colour. This may explain why.

Could some of the problem be that they switched which base color they're using as their brown oil tan? I remember it being said they they switched to a chestnut oil tan over what they'd been using a year or so prior.

I think you’re right. I remember seeing that somewhere too. It would make sense as the old IHxWesco packer in roughout oil tan was a deep chocolate colour, not like Giles’ new pair.

These are nice boots! Great pick up @Eisenherz

Thank you very much.
It is a pity that this boots are not in continuous production.
On the other hand I never saw anyone with this boots in the wild, but I have to mention that I live in the Pampa. -
In Germany one says " in the Pampa" means in the middle of nowhere.
Now I am searching for the Wesco 38RT. (out of black horsehide) But these are way more seldom.. -

That makes more sense. I was sure you were in Deutschland, but then got confused [emoji1]

@Giles that looks like a Morrison but I’m wondering what toe shape you chose? They look great and your oil tanned leather is way different from the swatch I have. Gives me ideas…
