They arent that bad, due for a clean up yes, but thats just a bit of mud... It has been raining quite a bit. I will post some pics up when I polish em!

WesCo highliners

Whites and WesCo are both very well known for being of the highest quality.

You can get a double steel shank in the WesCo customs.

GoreTex = good stuff

It isn't cheap but either are your boots: https://www.obenaufs.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=30 All the research I have done, somewhat extensive, indicates that Obenaufs is the best conditioning product available. you can get it at a bunch of places...

Well, having one for a short time spoils you!

I dont notice the weight at all... When I worked towers I bought the heaviest boots I could find on purpose, figured on getting the most exercise out of each ladder wrung. At one point I thought about wearing ankle weights.

The redwing store measures your feet with a neat little machine.

I have 2 pairs of size 12 Redwings one insulated with safety toe, one un insulated without. The WesCo Highliners are also size 12 and appear longer. They are definitely tighter in the center of the foot. Overall I feel like the WesCos are a tighter fit for me. That being said I like they way...

Those are the after shots Jay, I was beyond scrawny before I started rock-climbing. I actually look buff now compared to then... Here is a shot from my first rock climbing trip: I weighed around 150 lbs in that picture!

Normal sized?

6'3" 175 lbs. Maybe

I just got called skinny on another forum! Meg says I look goofy in that picture too!

You keep saying that! Polish would have been good after the Heavy-Duty-LP but using it before would have defeated the purpose. Tell you what, as my boot-benefactor next time I condition them, I will slap a layer of black shoe polish on, afterwards, and take a picture of how spiffy they look...

Thats a good point. It hasnt been to big of a deal so far though. Thanks again for sending them my way. I love em! Alrighty then, who wants to watch a timelapse of me conditioning them? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/0Lm8JaIrbA0" frameborder="0"...

Truth be told Meg likes it better. I leave a bit of pant over the the top of the boot and it keeps the sawdust out. BUT, when I get home my pants are nice and clean below the knee!
