      Looking for some sizing advice for some Packers.  I've read about half of this thread, and it seems like the general consensus is to order TTS.  My left foot's a US9.5D and my right foot's a 9E, which makes sizing a bit more difficult.  Sometimes I size for my smaller foot and sometimes for my bigger foot.

      In other boots, which fit well, I wear the following:

      IH x Viberg Wild Ones: 8.5EE (perfect with thick socks)
      Viberg 2030: 8.5 (thin socks only)
      Viberg 2040: 9, just a tad long with thin socks
      Tricker's 4497 (Stow model): 8.5UK, good with thin socks
      Red Wing: 8.5 (thin socks only)
      Wolverine 1k: 8.5 (thin or medium weight socks)

      I've also had a few sports-related foot and ankle injuries, so I prefer some breathing room.  My forefoot is somewhat wide, while my heel is somewhat narrow.  I also don't mind wearing an insole.

      With all that said, I can't figure out if I should go after a 9 or 9.5 in the Packer last.  More specifically, I'm looking at these two magnificent pairs.

      Ironically, I'm 30 minutes from Wesco, but my schedule hasn't allowed me to pay them a visit.

        Tricky one.  I think either of them could work, but it's a bit of a gamble…

          @Giles  Yeah, I think it would be a gamble, too.  I'll try to set aside some time soon to visit Wesco and try on a few pairs.

                    today i joined a team of zoologists in search for the nesting ground of the quite rear and unexplored creature.
                    after 12 hours of exhausting hunt we spotted a perfectly camouflaged pair of "rough out burlap foot patrol".
