reminds you of....Attractions??? Much much much more ergonomic!

So, the hide comes from a well known italian tannery that supplies horsehide to Schott. This is the thicker version of the Schott leather. I dig the all black look but obviously Viberg marked the he’ll up as this leather is cheaper than Horween. Anyhow, the boots looks dressy & fits well outta the box. You are standing on leveled sole, not tilting forward.

My new Wesco 7400 engineer boots in brown domain leather arrived today.

These boots turned out beautifully and they were definitely worth the 3 month wait. The 7400 model has a higher arch than the standard Wesco Boss and it fits my foot perfectly. Big thanks to Wesco and Baker's Boots for another great pair of boots.

Yep, I have a black pair of Lone Wolf's, and they're top-notch boots. But, to no surprise, as they're made in Japan, and those folks make very high quality leather goods. I ordered mine through Japan's Rakuten website.

Care to post photos? I just don’t dig the celastic toe box, otherwise they look very good.
