          mahlon, those boots are the nuts.  Very nice.  I too am curious about your thoughts on sizing relative to other brands. I have not jumped in yet on Wescos, but I am "poised" to jump!

          Giles - Is that brown rough out pictured above a MP toe/narrow last on a packer upper??

            Thanks Friday!!
            @pillowPANTS @Bluegrass these are a size 10EE, as for a Viberg reference, I'm afraid I can't help you. Normally I'm a 9-91/2 in chucks or any non boots. As my feet are constantly cold, I am always wearing 2 pairs of thick wool socks. So when I sent in my measurements to Bakers, they recommended this size. It's spot on. I also printed off the Wesco custom measurement form from their website and took all the numbers and sent those in as well to help.
            For a numbers reference these have an internal measurement of 11" toe to heel. My foot measures just shy of this with my boot socks. Sorry for the ramble. Hope this helps 🙂

              Thanks mahlon, I sent the tracings in to Bakers when I bought my White's - I will check with Kyle - I'd expect they have a lot of experience with both brands and how they compare.

                Anytime sir!
                I'd be calling Bakers for sure, especially since they do deal with both brands.

                …side note...
                Anyone else notice Santa Claus in the background of the brown rough outs pic on the previous page???

                    Not at all weird; they call it it Morrison toe. Muskhaven had some made up that looked fantastic, custom buckles too. I think @tatmantall had a pair. There are pictures of it on the forum somewhere, it looks like a Cowboy boot had a baby with an engineer. I like it very much and it's different.

                    Think it, be it.

                      Regular toe, not MP

                      I am a 10E or 10EE in all Wesco and a 9.5E in all Viberg

                        Thanks mclain, just looked it up… the morrison toe definitely is really beautiful.  It also reminds me of Kyle's FH boots, and that's a very good thing...
