      Wow that's a lot of sizes! 😃

      The comments about the couple pairs running too wide in the forefoot, plus the fact that your Nick's are Cs sounds like you've got a bit of a narrow foot? Maybe the E with isn't the play, then… I'm just basing my suggestion on the fact that conventional wisdom on that last is if you normally wear a D, get an E. I've got average width feet and have always worn a D width in literally every shoe I've ever owned aside from the Mr Lous, and I feel like they fit exactly like I'd expect a D to fit.

      I know White's will send you a pair to try on for sizing — will Wesco do that? Might be worth a shot emailing and asking, since most of what we'll have to offer here is personal experience mixed with some speculation.

        You're spot on with the reasoning on widths and why I tried these in D to be a bit narrower. I think 9C could be closer but would work about even more toe nail crushing from the toe cap.

        These are try on pairs from wesco so I'm waiting on their weekend to get back to me on their professional opinion too. Thanks for the input. Boots have always been really hard for me to fit right. I could always get a set of these made from Nicks but these Wescos are a little more appealing to me.

          I think getting em really dialed will give you an absolutely fantastic pair of boots. As I said, mine aren’t even a perfect fit and they’re more comfortable than most of the boots I own.

            A custom last is no option for you? It’s a small premium to pay, but totally worth it if you have difficult feet.

              That could be an option but I'd probably go with the Nicks 55 in their engineer before that since it fits so well.

                    @John Galt looking good. I put an order in in February for a pair. How long did you have to wait on them?

                    Also at Ship John's advice, I ordered a 11.5D in them. I have a pair of bubble toe jobmasters that fit great at 12D, but they were pretty confident 11.5D was the right move. How did you size them?

                      @Tmulltuous I ordered the Derroll boots in mid-January.  I am a 9.5D Brannock and an 8.5 in the Viberg 2030 & 2050.  I ordered a 9E.  Ship John contacted me since they sell few E widths of these and after discussing, I changed my order to a 9D.  The fit is good, they fit just a tad slimmer in the body than the Mister Lou.  Hope it works out for you.

                        My cousin dropped his boots off for a rebuild today and drug me along. He bought some natural horse hide boss boots and I ordered some foot patrols in Buffalo!

                            Yea they’re pretty rad. And that’s only after 2 years 8.5 months.

                            I should have got a picture of the horse boots he walked out with.

                                        That’s absolutely brilliant. Considering the fact that my first Wescos were The Boss model with the Harness rings, your polar opposite,I never have thought of that. Love the lacing up top as well.

                                          Can I ask when you ordered these? I have some MTO's on the books and want to get an idea of how the Wesco timeline is these days..

                                            I would expect anything between 10-12 months. My last order has been placed in December and the most recent update I have received was October/November.
