      Thank you Neph 😃
      I wonder why nobody postet pics so far. The natural leather is so special , can‘t remember to see any boots like  them .
      Was a perfect IH week for me, got a perfect fitting pair of 805‘s 😍 the last pair of 666 in size 35 from the restock and those fabulous wesco boots. Yeah 🍾😎

        Depending on where people live I’d imagine only a few have them in hand, if any.

                        I'll appreciate if anyone could share some more pics showing how this leather ages.
                        Thanks!

                          Anyone comment on the fit on these? I’m a 13 d (us) in Justin boots and a 12d in heritage boots.

                            I measure a size 11 on a US Brannock device (upper end of D width) and take a 10.5 US in Red Wing heritage boots (Moc Toe and Iron Ranger).  I have the Mr Lou's in a 10.5 E which fit me well.

                              Hey @tatmantall - In almost all cases with the Mister Lou, taking the same size that you wear in Red Wing Heritage boots is the best place to start. If you consider yourself to have a slightly wider foot (your Red Wings fit quite snug) then going to an E width would be the only additional consideration I would note.

                                Thanks, but I’ve never had any red wings 😏🤪 so that doesn’t really help much. Lol

                                      I’ve been pretty obsessed with engineer boots for the last year or so, but always worried that it would look to try hard or costumey, but my gf finally talked me into giving them a shot. But sometimes  you just can’t make a decision on color. Ironhheart natural Essex 8.5d and standard & strange natural cxl 8.5e. In al honesty I didn’t even realize the ironhearts were d width when I ordered them. But I measure closer to C width so it seemed to work out for the intended use. Essex for work and going out, cxl for rain, snow, yard work. I’ll have to stretch the instep on the Essex a bit but with now soft the leather is I don’t think it’ll be an issue.

                                      Edit. Instep is an issue I’ll be exchanging for a 8.5e.

                                            Hi @Kfactor - these are on order, they should be back in stock at the start of next year. They will be a slightly different leather but we will post details on that as soon as we have in info. If you sign up to the restock notifications you will be informed as soon as they are online.
