      Thanks guys - I've always been interested in custom but I already have multiple Wescos and feel like I've sunk enough money into trial/error that I don't want to pay the extra $100 for custom. This is probably very illogical haha.

      For example, my 8.5E unstructured Wesco 7500s fit me but I just got a pair of Mr. Lou's black wax flesh in 9.5E that are very slightly roomy but also fit (same last MP1339).

      Looking to get either a Morrison (91W last I think) or Boss (9165 or 9109) for my next build. I am very likely a 9 or 9.5 in the Boss, does anybody know if the Boss D width = the Mr. Lou (MP1339) E width? I've heard the MP last's E width is like a standard D and it fits me well so I would get a 9.5D Boss if that's the case.

      Here's a pic of the Mr. Lou's to contribute to the thread instead of just my questions.

        The wax flesh looks great. I have an olive wax flesh on order which is supposed to arrive somewhere around January.
        The next one will be a Morrison for me as well if I don't get a Lucchese  😎

          Really been enjoying the hell out of these lately. Saw em sitting in some good light earlier and thought I'd snap a couple pics. Ultimately the snaps didn't exactly do them as much justice as I'd like, but documentation nonetheless…

              Thanks man! I feel like that leather does have a really nice way of aging. It's sort of a sleeper.

                  Thanks holmes! One thing I really like about nat cxl is the way crocking sorta gives the leather some contrast. Next time I get a sunny day I'll take some pics of these outside where it's a bit more visible.

                                      Lol it's wonderful and really brings out the supple qualities of each type of leather. It seemed the CXL was more thirsty and visibly changed more compared to the black. The black seemed to matte initially but settled down quickly.  Pretty easy to apply with a micro fiber cloth compared to a more greasy mink oil I've used with my RWs. Definitely will continue to use.
