Mister Lou - Tan Latigo
Wesco Mister Lou Engineer Boot – Tan Latigo (Wickett & Craig)
Crafted in the USA by Wesco, this version pairs the iconic Mister Lou silhouette with Wickett & Craig Tan Latigo leather, taken a step further with extra oiling — just like our last run of Jobmasters.
Wickett & Craig Tan Latigo
This build features Tan Latigo leather from Wickett & Craig, one of the last true vegetable tanneries in the United States.
Latigo is a hybrid leather — veg tanned and hot-stuffed with oils and waxes — delivering:
- Strong structure with natural flexibility
- Rich pull-up and depth
- Excellent durability and wear resistance
- Smooth, consistent grain
- A patina that builds evenly over time
For this batch, we added extra oil content, giving the leather a more broken-in feel right out of the box along with deeper tone and enhanced movement.
This is not dry veg tan — this is dialed-in, ready-to-wear leather.
The Mister Lou Build
The Mister Lou is Wesco’s refined take on the classic engineer boot — slimmer, cleaner, and built to perform.
Specifications:
- Model: Mister Lou 7600
- Leather: Tan Latigo – Wickett & Craig
- Height: 10” Engineer
- Last: MP Toe
- Heel: Standard Boss Heel Height
- Slimmer Leg Cut
- Solid Nickel Roller Buckles
- Vintage Triple Stitching on Uppers
- Dr. Sole Black Half Outsole & Heel
- Hand-Waxed Edges
- Handmade in USA
The Dr. Sole half outsole keeps the profile low while adding durability and traction.
Why This Pair Hits Different
Most veg-tanned boots take time to break in.
These don’t.
With the added oiling, you get:
- Faster break-in
- Immediate comfort and flex
- Stronger pull-up and color variation
- A head start on patina
They’ll darken, burnish, and develop character quickly — without sacrificing structure
The Bottom Line
Wesco build quality.
Wickett & Craig leather.
Extra oil.
