What's the leather here? As far as wedge-soles go, Gloxi's a good 'un. Is this a re-sole jobbie?

@sambam - I just looked at my calendar and realized that it's been 4 weeks since I placed my order. I was quoted 5-6 weeks at the time, so I'm not expecting them yet. But.... I thought I'd ask if you wouldn't mind checking to see how they're coming along.

What style, color and size?

Thanks very much!

I will keep an eye on it.

Swing last is the most generous in the forefoot, with rounded toe. See this post for a visual example, the last photo demonstrates the overall shape well: https://www.styleforum.net/threads/custom-whites-boots-thoughts.219173/page-233#post-7042685

I would also consider @chicken1616 's advice and choose a proper workboot for workboot-use.

Well...... I may walk through various conditions but I’m not swinging a hammer aka “working” physically on the site. I look at various scenarios and communicate with others, then return to my office.

Its not rocket science to determine that the requirements for my boots will differ than the requirements of a manual laborer.
