JW Boot Run: UPDATE 26 JULY!

**Jango_Wes** · 01-05-2010, 04:37 PM

My paypal addy is wesclone at aol dot com (dang bots!).
$230 for US buyer
$250 for non US buyers

Make sure to include your screen name and size in the paypal info.
(names in bold are paid, in order of payment received, by size)
**********************************

This is the sign up list. Final price is $230 shipped in the US, $250 outside the US. That will cover paypal fees as well as shipping to me, then shipping to you.

Here's how this will work, so please read:

1: WHOLE SIZES ONLY
2: I know I said half up front in the initial thread, but I would prefer the whole amount, it's just easier to keep up with. If you want on the list and can only afford half now, that's cool, I understand. I AM NOT TAKING MONEY AT THIS TIME.
3. And like last time, it doesn't matter who's first to pay. If you are the first to pay, that doesn't guarantee you will be the first to get your boots. They make these in bunches, and I send the boots out as I get them in. They can send me a box of size 9, then a box of 10 and 11 later. However, if you are the first size 9 to pay, you will be the first size 9 shipped out. I hope that makes sense.
4. Please, only sign up if you are committed to buying the boots. If you pay, then want to pull out, I'm stuck paying for your boots.
5. Any questions, just ask.
6. Oh yeah, to avoid any confusion, the spats and spikes are NOT part of the run. Only the boots.
7. I will close the list at the end of the month. I will start taking payments the beginning of February.
8. Once the list is closed, it's closed. I'll send the total number of boots/sizes and he starts cobbling (right verb?).
9. Also, just so we are clear, the cut off is 31 January. I will take payments until 14 February. I don't want to hold up the run waiting on a couple of people to pay. 2 weeks should be adequate.

With competing boot runs (JW vs CABoots), we're all going to be better off with a bulk order with one supplier. Same question as Sonik... what is the lead time for these boots and the certainty? Thanks.

**saint_nasty** · 01-05-2010, 05:51 PM

i've already got a pair of caboots, but due to the comfort issues of them i'm willing to try out a new boot. please mark me down for a pair of 11's.

**PEEL1965** · 01-05-2010, 06:32 PM

Usually wear a size 9.5. Will these run big or small? Put me down for a pair Wes....

**Gilmore of OK** · 01-05-2010, 06:43 PM

Size 12 please sir...

**Jango_Wes** · 01-05-2010, 06:44 PM

Peel: I wear a 9.5 and a 9 fit better than a 10. I'd go with 9.
For everyone else: I'm not in a competition with CA Boots. If you want theirs, buy theirs. If you want mine, buy mine. You've seen the both, make a decision and go with it.

Wes

**FettDad** · 01-05-2010, 07:00 PM

sign me up for a size 10, please...

**Copley the Fett** · 01-05-2010, 09:43 PM

Being a newbie, this is a hard choice for me. Could some one please PM with some info on each boot? I need shoes and I'm tore between the 3 options I have. I like the idea of the JW boots because they are made by a guy who actually makes things for movies right? Saint nasty mentioned something about comfort... do caboots not fit too well? Any info would be great!

**FettFanatic** · 01-05-2010, 09:47 PM

Size 11 for me please. Thanks.

**saint_nasty** · 01-06-2010, 02:17 AM

caboots look about right, but they have very little in the way of support for your feet. between standing in them and the jetpack throwing off your center of balance (and getting uncomfortably hot in the multitude of layers of costume), it takes it toll on you after a few hours and your feet will hate you for a couple days after. i'm hoping that the JW boots provide better padding and arch support; cuz when your feet start to go on a troop your time in costume is coming to an end.

Size 9 it is then Wes. Put me down....

**Astro Builder** · 01-06-2010, 04:23 AM

Wes....Any thoughts on arch support or soles of the JW Boot vs CABoots? Thanks.

**4505marcel** · 01-06-2010, 06:17 AM

Are these still a wide fitting boot mate? Put me down for a US 10 please mate if they are cheers

When are these going nto production mate?

**Gilmore of OK** · 01-06-2010, 07:21 AM

if you feel Arch support or the soles will be an issue guys and gals...just get a size or 2 larger than what you normally wear and throw some insole supports or comfort soles in there.

**Copley the Fett** · 01-06-2010, 01:50 PM

Good, idea... but it wouldn't work for me. I am short and where a large shoe size, I don't want to look like Boba the Clown

hehehe Mostly a joke, but it might look weird.. not sure about that one

**fil5117** · 01-06-2010, 02:18 PM

I've signed on Sonics thread for a pair of CABoots, 'cause I thought they were best 'available' at the moment, but with these on offer I'd like to make an informed decision.

Can anyone post some example pics of the JW Boots please.

Thanks

**Jango_Wes** · 01-06-2010, 02:26 PM

*Sigh*.
Ok, if you look in my previous thread about my boots, you will find pictures and all available information you seek.
CA Boba boots are nowhere near accurate. I would have to say, mine are around 85-90%. Only MCs are better and you can't find them anymore. Here's a comparison of mine to MCs:
http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showt...oot+comparison

Here's the CA:

As far as fit. DO NOT buy 2 sizes bigger and try to fit inserts, unless you like swimming in them. Get some inserts and trim them to fit.
If you wear a half size, I suggest going down, ie if you wear a 9.5, get a 9 for a snug fit. That worked for me. If you want a little more room, go up.

Wes

**fil5117** · 01-06-2010, 02:30 PM

Wes,
Thanks I read the other link but, unfortunately, the picture links are broken

Cheers

**Astro Builder** · 01-06-2010, 02:34 PM

Wes...Thanks for the info, those of us that are not "in the know" just want to buy the best boot available. Your patience in appreciated with us newbies.

**Gilmore of OK** · 01-06-2010, 02:51 PM

And being a owner of MCs previously, Wes yours are FAR more accurate without a doubt.

**4505marcel** · 01-06-2010, 02:53 PM

So they do run a little large like CA boots, I wear a 10 in CA TK boots so im assuming a 10 in your Wes are similar, is so 10 it is for me mate thank you

**fil5117** · 01-06-2010, 03:13 PM

... k, after reading up on the various posts in the forum I've decided to order a pair

Size 9 please

**jebby10** · 01-06-2010, 04:43 PM

i checked the link also and the pictures are x out.

**hojufett** · 01-06-2010, 09:57 PM

Please put me down for a pair of size 13.

Thanks

**Lassiter** · 01-07-2010, 07:37 AM

I would like to get a pair at size 9.
Thanks

**FettInABox** · 01-07-2010, 12:19 PM

I'll take a pair, size 12 please. Thanks!

**morten** · 01-07-2010, 03:27 PM

Please sign me up for a pair, size 11.

Thanks!
Morten

**Jango_Wes** · 01-07-2010, 03:27 PM

Here's a pic of my boots that Batninja had. Now, keep in mind, the center fabric will be the correct dark gray, not the heathered look of these.

Wes

**xsinj** · 01-07-2010, 04:41 PM

Very nice...size 10 please.

**Peregrinus** · 01-07-2010, 05:39 PM

Hey, Wes? You never said anything about the possibility of getting them in white, for a Supertrooper costume...

I'm still trying to get an answer on a second pair I may be asking for for someone else, so until I know, I'm holding off on my final "sign me up". I am still a committed party, though. Just need to sort whether I'm one, two, or three times committed.

--Jonah

**Jango_Wes** · 01-07-2010, 08:53 PM

No white. Strictly regular Fett colors. You could always dye them though.

Wes

**Peregrinus** · 01-08-2010, 04:24 AM

Hm... I suppose I'll burn that bridge when I come to it. My Supertrooper porject's probably a good couple years off yet.

Also, while I'm waiting for word... Is there any provision for sending boots back to you if they turn out to be too large/too small, so long as they were only tried on and not worn, and requesting a pair of the next size up or down instead? Trying to cover all bases here so no one's left hanging at either end.

--Jonah

**shabad** · 01-08-2010, 05:13 AM

I'm in, size 9 for me. Thanks Wes.

**FettDad** · 01-08-2010, 06:29 AM

i feel JW is doing us a favor here by having a boot run...if the boots dont fit, sell them...

**yodakiller1138** · 01-08-2010, 09:32 AM

Did you ever get together with Art to make them more accurate or are they still the old pattern?

**SlabFett** · 01-08-2010, 04:00 PM

I'm in. I'm a little concerned on size as well. I wear 12 in Nike's and 11 in Doc Marten's so I guess the size 12 would be the safe route.

**22ssplt** · 01-08-2010, 07:25 PM

size 11 please. thanks JW

**pigeonfarmboy** · 01-08-2010, 08:46 PM

Size 11. Excited this is happening!

**Peregrinus** · 01-09-2010, 07:01 PM

He is doing us a tremendous service indeed. I'd just want to see as many pairs end up where they're actually needed as possible, and without reselling. I'm a 10½, so -- since they seem to run a little large -- I was going to go with the 10. I was just seeing if, should those be too small, I could send them back to Wes so he could send them to the next person who wants size 10s and put myself on the list for a pair of 11s instead. That seemed the simpler way to go about it...

--Jonah

**james007bond** · 01-10-2010, 11:47 AM

I'm on the CAboots run...looks like i will pull out of that one now.....

Wes, sign me up for a US11 please (which is a UK 10), i'll need them shipped to the UK..

Thanks

Shiv

**Little TK Boy** · 01-10-2010, 12:58 PM

Hmmm... this was a thread I'v never saw... Have lookt like every day on the first JW boots thread xD but it's a new one now xD... well.. thx for the "check this thread link on the other thread

Okeej... would like size 11 Please

And? will there be any diffrent where you wear on the last list ??? or is this totaly new now ???

//Oscar//

**james007bond** · 01-10-2010, 01:43 PM

I'm off the CABOOTS list now, so please sign me up for a Size 11 ....

cheers

Shiv

**Darth Voorhees** · 01-10-2010, 01:44 PM

Sign me up! size 9 please

**Jango_Wes** · 01-10-2010, 04:51 PM

To address the last round of questions:
1. if you're worried about size (if you wear a half size), err on the side of caution. Order up. You can always put in insoles and wear thick socks.

2. Art never replied to my PMs about the boots.

3. Don't get bent out of shape over your place on the list. order shipped is order paid.

Wes

**TJDFett** · 01-10-2010, 06:49 PM

Is this a continuous run? I'm not in the market for boots now, but I will be in the future. And I dont want to settle for evo props.

**Peregrinus** · 01-10-2010, 09:26 PM

Okay, Wes. Put me down for size 11, then.

For the other person I'd be ordering for, what's the smallest you're able to get? She'd be a men's size 7.

--Jonah

**Loanstar** · 01-10-2010, 11:53 PM

I will take 3 pairs.

Put me in for a size 11
Put me in for a size 10
and please put me in for a size 9

**Nilz** · 01-11-2010, 03:40 AM

**Astro Builder** · 01-11-2010, 07:23 AM

Sign me up for a pair of USA size 12

**webchief** · 01-11-2010, 10:57 AM

Wes, when are you expecting to need the money?

**the_ hunter_of_bounties** · 01-11-2010, 11:16 AM

Size thirteen please,and thank you.

**Jango_Wes** · 01-11-2010, 02:10 PM

This will not be a continous run. More than likely, this will be it, ever.

Bob, not sure when, but probably in the next couple of weeks.

Wes

**R.P. McMurphy** · 01-12-2010, 06:45 AM

Size 11 for me please. Thanks very much for taking this on.

**yodakiller1138** · 01-12-2010, 09:42 AM

Size 10 please.

**Mojo-Fett** · 01-12-2010, 10:45 AM

I'm in for an 8... I take a UK 7 so I assume this is correct?

**Hippo Clone** · 01-13-2010, 11:23 AM

2 size 11's please.

**webchief** · 01-13-2010, 11:37 AM

Size 12. Thanks!!!

Questions:

A. Maybe I missed it, but I have scanned through the posts here and have not seen the final price. Do we have this yet?

B. When will you be accepting payments?

C. If building in "size" lots, what sizes will they be starting.

D. What is the expected lead time per lot? Are we looking at weeks or months?

Thanks for your attention.

**BOBA PHAT** · 01-14-2010, 10:17 AM

I have a pair of these from another run, and I have to say that you won't be disappointed! Very comfortable, and the most accurate set available. Weathering on these were done with acrylic paint washes, and the spikes are RusRep's.

-Ryan

**PEEL1965** · 01-14-2010, 01:22 PM

Wes. I'll be taking 2 pairs. Thanks.

**LiquiTed** · 01-15-2010, 01:27 AM

The 501 China outpost is new and we got about 6-7 certified memebers now and of course is growing. Tomorrow in Shanghai, we will have an event with Adidas Starwars in Shanghai and probably i will share photos with you folks later...

I have two question here, do you ship the boots to China... and if not, i need it to be sent to my friend in SFO... secondly about the payment, do you accept credit card, or only paypal or cash, if CC payment is not available, i would have my friend in U.S to help me to drop the payment, plz confirm...

for the boots, i would like to have a pair of size 8.

one more thing, i have been deep diving at the dentedhlemet for a long time and it is time to get to surface... may the force be with you all...

**dsonik1** · 01-29-2010, 04:24 PM

JW,

I wear a size 8.5 shoe (7.5 in Caboots). What size would you suggest?

**Jango_Wes** · 01-30-2010, 08:33 AM

dsonik - I wear a 9.5 in pretty much everything and a 9 fit me great. But that's me.
If you order a 9, you can always put in inserts. It's your call.

Wes

**Shabazz Jenkins** · 01-30-2010, 09:07 AM

Pleas put me on the list - size 11

Think I'll have you put me on for a pair in size 8, just to be safe.

**SlabFett** · 01-30-2010, 03:23 PM

So cut off is 01/31. When do you start taking payments? On the 01/31 or 02/01? My Paypal is ready waiting.

**Jango_Wes** · 01-30-2010, 04:32 PM

On the 1st. I'll post Paypal information when I am ready to start taking payment.

Wes

**Copley the Fett** · 01-31-2010, 11:32 AM

Thanks
