          This is a gorgeous build. Are they dubbed in any way? The toe tips look like they could be.

          Think it, be it.

            They are not.  It's an oiled leather so you are seeing some of that tannage.

              Really digging these boots. Never owned a pair of Wesco boots before so I feel like I'm going in blind on a preorder. I'm a 10D-US on most of my Red Wing Hertitage boots,  9.5 US on Lofgren Combats and 10.5-US on most sneaker and hiking boots. Any coments or comparisons from Wesco owners would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

                I would go for a 10E.

                      I agree with Alex-10E should work for you.

                              I think that could work, or perhaps a 13.5E

                                I think I am going buy these boots, but like some of the others, I don't own any Wescos so really hard to guess sizing.

                                I am a 10-10.5D tweener in US sizing on a brannock.
                                I wear a USA 9.5D in all my RW boots including 877, Iron Ranger, Beckman, classic round toe
                                I wear a UK 9D in Tricker's stow boots (these are reputed to run true to size)
                                I wear a UK 8.5D in Tricker's bourton (these are reputed to run slightly big)
                                I wear a USA size 10D in Oakstreet Bootmakers trench boots (these are reputed to run true to size)
                                I wear a USA 10D in most running/tennis shoes, but once in a while I require a 10.5D

                                By reading this thread it sounds like folks would recommend a USA 9.5E in the Wesco boot.  Please let me know your thoughts while I dream about these boots.

                                  I think that just about sums it up. I’d suggest 9.5E too.

                                      Looking for sizing recommendation…

                                      Brannock: 11.5 EE left; 11.5 EEE right

                                      Boots:
                                      Viberg Engineer 11 2005 last
                                      Truman 11.5 EE US
                                      Red Wing Roughneck 10.5 EE US
                                      Alden: I have tried on the Indy boot on Barrie last. 10.5 US was perfect in length, D width no bueno.

                                      Sneakers:
                                      New Balance 11.5 US
                                      Vans: 12 US; Vault: 11.5 US
                                      Converse CT: 11 US
                                      Adidas: 12 US
                                      Widths are always problematic, with all of them. NB and Vans are generally much more accommodating.

                                      I want to say, I'd be size 11. The width gets tricky, though. I'm thinking EE, at least, if not EEE.

                                      Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

                                        Really digging these boots. Never owned a pair of Wesco boots before so I feel like I'm going in blind on a preorder. I'm a 10D-US on most of my Red Wing Hertitage boots,  9.5 US on Lofgren Combats and 10.5-US on most sneaker and hiking boots. Any coments or comparisons from Wesco owners would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

                                        I would go for a 10E.

                                        Thanks for the sizing tip. After doing some internet sizing reviews on Wesco, the 10-E seems to be the right fit for me. I missed out on the JL Black Cats from SS which I really liked, but think these Wesos will fit the bill as the look is similar.

                                          9.5E is my best guess yes

                                            I would go 11EEE, if your feet are different widths then you may find one is looser than the other, but the only way to resolve that is to pay the money to have a custom last made to your feet (one fee for all future Wescos)
