        Does anyone remember where that Wesco
        Size chart is? The one from bigblackboots.com

        Maybe so. Maybe not

            That’s the one. I was referring to where I saw it in this forum before. I measured my foot today and had some questions. I’m an 11EEE according to that size chart.. I’m Wondering if anyone else with Wesco boots finds the cart accuratez

              The Boot I got today is 9.5D and that is pretty much exactly what the Chart says.

                I used that size chart before I bought my Jobmasters and find it accurate.

                I may have mentioned this before but Kyle at Bakers boots told me that not all of Wesco’s lasts are standardized. For the standard Jobmaster last (9165) or bump toe last (9109), the chart works great. Kyle also mentioned if you are thinking of going with the MP last he said to size down 0.5 size FWIW.

                      This is something that is giving me trouble. I have heard to size down .5 for the MP but in practice I rarely see it done without removing the sock liner or in cases of people with odd sizing. I've also seen side by side pictures of an MP wesco and a 2030 Viberg that was a half size smaller and they looked the same,  maybe even a bit shorter than the Viberg.

                        yeah I would be leery of sizing down with the MP toe- of course it depends on the last & he's the expert.

                        Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                        Well, I have others.

                          Interesting and good to know. I’m getting the feeling that Kyle at Bakers tends to size people on the tighter side. He advised me to take a half size smaller on my Jobmasters but I went TTS from the chart on bigblackboots.com instead and I’m glad I did. I have sized down too much on certain boots in the past and was trying to avoid that for my Wescos. BTW, I’m a 10 in Viberg and 11 in Wesco.

                            the MP toe is narrow to begin with, if you sized down you might be pinched length and width. I'm normally a D but if I order another MP toe I'm going to E.

                              I am slowly inching up on getting a pair. To be honest, getting the sizing right is slightly stressful. Question: what size are in Red Wings or Vans?@spacecadet:

                                I have a pair of Redwings in 10EE but the fit isn’t great. Maybe a 10.5D would have been better. Not really sure since I haven’t tried that. Don’t have Vans but I’m 11.5 in Nike/New Balance. 11 in PF Flyers. 10E in Alden Trubalance/Barrie. 10E in White’s semidress but think 10.5 might be better for a longer arch length.

                                    There's an MP 1339 last which runs narrow  and an MP95 last that actually runs wide, but 99% of motor patrol boots I see are 1339.

                                    For now I'm planning on going true to brannock size on my foot patrol. I figure if it's a bit big I can use a thicker insole and get long laces to tie around the ankle.

                                      Hey everybody. I’m new to the forum and to my everlasting shame I’ve JUST discovered Wescos. Yes, I’ve been living under a rock for the last 20 years. LOL

                                      I just received my leather samples in the mail from Chris to help me decide which brown tone to go with and I’m totally sold on the British Tan. It’s even better in person! I’m just waiting on my fit kit to arrive so I can get that back to them and then I’ll be pulling the trigger on a pair of custom Hendriks. Can’t WAIT.

                                      My question is if anyone has any real life pics of the blue stitching option on a brown boot (style doesn’t matter, just want to see what the blue on brown looks like) and if anyone has gotten the orange stitching option for the soles? I’m not going to mix and match the leathers on this first pair, but I’m thinking it might be cool to throw a different stitch in there.

                                      Thanks in advance for any pics and thanks to everybody for all the great pics that have been posted in this thread already!

                                          I don’t know of anyone on here with that kind of combo but do check out wesco_japan on IG. Lots of interesting combos there.
