WESCO

Howdy @neph93 Wanted to pick your brain on these boots a bit if ya don't mind?

Finally got my MTO Wescos in! Damn they are gorgeous! I had them custom fit. They slid right on the first time like butter…including the inserts. I guess I was expecting them to fit more snug based off all the reading i've done on engineer boots. These are a whole different beast I suppose. With socks and inserts they seem to fit pretty good. There is some heel slip, about 1/2 inch i'd guess. I think this is normal too. Only worn them for one evening thus far, so sounds like this will minimize with wear. Guess I'm wondering how yours fit when you first got them?

Thanks again, you're always such a wealth of knowledge...hope I'm not too pesky with all the questions all the time.

Not at all…

First of all, beautiful, beautiful boots. Well done.

Secondly, heel slip happens, don’t sweat it. It will minimise as they break in, by which point you’ll also have stopped noticing it [emoji38]

I see this post was moved. Haha. I wasn’t sure where to put it. I see now.

@atm23:

My favorite build I got a few weeks ago. All black horsehide 8" Morrison, double edge, MP toe. These are my everyday boots, extremely comfortable.

@atm23 looks like we have a very similar style! Those are some beauties you built!

Here’s the one week update. The leather is so subtle and soft and break in has been basically non-existent. Best boots I’ve ever owned by a landslide!!

For sure. I was trying them on quickly to get a pic. They look a sloppy mess. Haha

I was just worried that the leather will take on a memory…..

Got a sizing question.  Wanted to essentially remake these tan boots https://divisionroadinc.com/blogs/bulletin/domain-jobmaster-restock.  Talked to Kyle from Bakers and he said it would have to be on the 65 last, and go up a half size from what I normally wear.  I usually wear 8EE in Red Wing, Whites (Semi dress/smoke jumper, normal heel).  I had a pair of Boss in 8EE and REALLY killed my feet until I took out the half slip.  I just wanted to make sure that 8.5EE made sense before I bought and I trust yall

JK my latest purchase of a pair of super black IH slim jeans at SE has changed the game.  I may have to contact the bootery in re the black creepy joe pair. . .

What Size would you all recommend? 8EE?
