      @Ross Now that we arrived in this window, I am back to checking this thread like a hawk. Anything to report?

      Randomly got excited about these again the other day. Have you continued wearing these beauties @Giles ?

      So excited for these. Making spring cleaning my boot and shoe collection a little easier.

      @Chesson:

      Hi @mbvanek - The best option if you are unsure is to go for a custom last, even more so if you have slightly different-sized feet.

      As a stock size we have only been running these up to a 12 (US), I can double check with Wesco to see if they do have the last for a 13 which would be where I would advise going if you didn't want to go down the custom last route.

      So presumably a custom last would not be an issue even if it means the boots run a bit larger than stock sizing? If that is the case I will likely go the custom route. Thanks @Chesson

      As someone unfamiliar with Wesco sizing, but absolutely in love with these boots, What are my best options for securing a pair that fits correctly?

      Full disclosure my only other boots are a pair of Red Wing 6'' Mocs in a size 13 (US) (the Red Wing Employee informed me that one of my feet is a 12.5 and the other is a 13 when measured with the fancy computerized fit machine)

      I suppose to narrow it down my question is two fold. Should I go with a custom last here to ensure they fit properly (if that is even possible for a guy with big feet) / Should I measure/ buy a Brannock device/ compare with other shoes and boots I own?

      Thank you all in advance.
