      Perhaps a silly question, but the size shown on the site is UK size, yes?

        I'd expect US, since Wesco is American.

          Yes, US.  I have fixed the product page….Sorry, that was my cock-up when creating the product page...

                Which is what they are….

                That's weird… 😃

                These are going to age in epic fashion. Wesco showed some gently loved burlap on their IG: https://www.instagram.com/p/BzMXP7MHEh6/?igshid=1o7bt56i1mp46

                Think it, be it.

                  Burlap is one of the best leathers for sure! This one is by far more supple than a pair I had a few years ago.

                    Doh…..

                    Whilst walking the storage consultant around, I found 4 pairs of these that were not in stock.  Someone from the anti-sales department must have been at work....

                    So:

                        The first thing I did when I found them (well second actually, because I went ape-shit first), was to check for a 9D…

                          How does the sizing go with these boots compared with the Jobmaster boots?

                              Are Boss boots bigger at all to give more room for boots socks?

                                I have Boss boots on the Boss toe and MP toes in the same size. The Boss toe uses more or less the same last as the Jobmasters. Although width-wise I have much more room in my Boss toe engineers, compared to my MP toe engineers. I could probably go down to a D fitting, but it isn’t a problem either.

                                  Do any of you know how these fit compared to the Mr Lou boots.

                                    Slightly looser in the heel cup and slighter wider in the shaft…

                                        So same size in both models? Mr. Lou and these.

                                          Mr Lou uses the same last as these boots, so the length and breadth and shape of the toe is the same, as is the foot bed in general. The Mr Lou is a chopped and channeled version with a smaller heel cup to reduce heel slippage (some people find heel slippage a problem, don't ask me why), and a narrower shaft so that they fit under narrow leg jeans better.

                                          But the short answer to your question is "yes".
