        @Giles:

        And here is the description from the horses mouth…...

        "The W & Anchor Bros. Work Shoes No.1 use natural vegetable tanned leather as upper vamp .
        The liner of outsole and insole is by Traditional Goodyear Welt sewing .

        The toe and heel are with fiberglass hard-liner .
        The insole is made from vegetable tanned harden leather .
        All construction of shoes depend on steel metal piece .

        The outsole is high anti-abrasive and skidproof , use Dr.Sole that a brand develop mixed cork material quality specially .

        The size of shoes is US 7-10.5, 11, 12 and 13 in E width .
        It’s suitable D till double E width through our modification .
        Customer could choose size like Red Wing , WHITE’S , WESCO 、、、、 etc .  So true to US

        We test constantly everywhere like blacktop , concrete floor , even snowfield (under twenty degree) , and the shoes always have a good condition. "

        What is meant by "with our modification" the shoe will fit D to EE widths?

            Did I read "true to size?" Looks like they run a big large (like 1/2 size large). But just to the naked eye. I could be completely off.

              My pair seem to be a similar size to my Redwings. I'm normally UK 13, US 14, and EU 48, and mine are a US 13.

                  Not from me.  My agreement with Wesco is that if I want world domination, I can only carry Wesco…..But I know that Kurt is working on other models and I can help you buy......

                                  One of my fave emails ever…....

                                  **Hello Giles and Co.,

                                  Those W&A-01 size 8.5 shoes you special ordered for me?

                                  I hate them.

                                  I don't want to ever take them off.  They're that damn nice.  My partner is Japanese, and expects me to take off my shoes as soon as I come home.  Where's the fun in that?  So now, I have to decide if I ever want to set foot inside my apartment ever again.

                                  Thanks a lot for making my life so difficult.

                                  AND THANK YOU FOR THE SHOES!**

                                            Sorry about the delay in getting this up @madmonday - I've been having phone issues. By that I mean that mine died, and then Google failed to deliver a replacement.

                                            The leather has a thin layer of the dark brown dye, this has worn off on the toe caps, and in a few other places. I've put a small hole in the lining of the shoe at the heel, and the heels also need replacing at some point, but overall they're in reasonable shape. I've had them for 18 or 20 months, and worn them a lot.
