    Breaking in Wesco Boss Boots

    They will last longer than you. I had two pairs of wesco over the years and got sizing wrong twice. If I remember correctly the boss with lug sole was more flexible than the jobmaster on 700 sole which literally didn't bend for the entire 6 months until I admitted they were too tight.

    Breaking in Wesco Boss Boots

    They will always be heavy... Single midsole? Vibram outsole ? It will take a lot of wear for those puppies to flex.

    That's, what Barbourism should look like!

    Just sent my circa 15 year old Northumberland for reproofing and zipper restitch. Have had a few others over the years but sold them on. All mine have been made in England, they do good repairs too. Agree that they have become over priced now.

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Good luck. I hope these work out. Heel lift is ok, but 'moving your foot around'....how much room have you got in the toe? Can you cinch the strap on to the tightest hole to make the heel fit a bit more snug?

    FS: Aero Board Racer, standard size 44, black Italian HH

    That is really nice looking but how can a size 44" measure 52cm across. That makes it about 41", I know these are tight but....

    Holy shit that sucks. I'm crossing my fingers for you that they fit and work out for you in the end...

    Your 'facts' and interpretation of them can also be said for John Chapman... Another newcomer using thin weak leather and pointless neat stitching.

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    I use the instep strap to tighten my boots. I have to undo it to take them off and put them on. Of course it is functional, not just for decoration on originals and good repros.

    Anyone heard of slow wear lion boots?

    I've been to the Tokyo store. It's kind of in the back streets of omotesando. The boots are all very nice quality but not really my style.

    Good luck with sizing. Update us when you get them. If they fit, I don't think you will regret the purchase. The steer hide is great, I have the horsebutt personally.

    I have a size 10 in attractions. I'm a uk 9 generally. us 9.5e in Alden trubalance and Barrie lasts. us9.5e in red wings. In vans I wear a us10.5. I have a high instep which may have stopped me fitting the 9.5 attractions. I literally couldn't get my foot into it at the store and we tried for...

    John Lofgren Engineer Boots in Natty CXL

    I had a pair of natty cxl whites nomad for a few years. Unless you really baby them, they will darken quickly and take on all sorts of marks and stains. (Definitely a good thing I think). Wearing them with new raw denim turns the shaft blue where it rubs for example. Mind you, mine went...

    Yes well nobody said they were cheap. I paid nearer £450 for mine and went to the attractions store in harajuku though.
