      I’m all about the roughout and I think the tan loses something in that config. It’s settled. Burlap it is.

      Sure. No problem guys. Oil tan is probably my favorite leather. I already have several pairs of boots in black and brown oil tan. Just prefer the lighter color of the British tan for my next build.

        Same here. Oil tan for working boots is just about perfect.

                          I’ve always been a fan (although packers are nice too and the hybrid permutations complicate things further), but the Smokejumpers are all the lace up I need at the moment. I’ll sort it one day.

                                  I have never had boots from horsehide, what is the difference comparing to cow leather, I guess that domain leather is from cow skin?

                                    Those S&S Axe Breakers are calling my name…

                                    Can I get some sizing advice folks? I've got narrow, long feet.

                                    Viberg 2030 in 10.5 fit like a dream; I can wear Real McCoys boondockers and engineer boots in size 10 and its a tight but comfortable fit; in Alden I can wear 10-11 in the Indy boot depending on sock thickness and lacing.

                                    What size should I be looking for in the Axebreaker 1339 last? They offer all in 'E' width, should I enquire about a 'D' width if possible?

                                    edit: Bulatik85 - I'm assuming you're asking specifically about horsehide, as opposed to cordovan. In my experience, horsehide is a smoother, shinier leather that is thinner and more pliable than cow.

                                        Ah apologies jdl1279, I should point out this is a build for Standard&Strange - https://standardandstrange.com/products/s-s-x-wesco-axe-breaker-horsehide-boot

                                        They have a 10.5E that might fit, considering I'm 10.5 in Viberg's 2030, 10.5 generally in Alden's larger lasts, but just wanted advice from anyone with experience due to my freakish narrow but long feet.

                                            @Aries It is a pre-order for S&S, though, right? Maybe worth reaching out to Neil and seeing if he can tack on your size to their order.
