      I've got 3 pairs of Wesco's. 2 of them are 10.5s and one is a 10. But the 10 is a Jobmaster with lots of toe room.

      I seem to enjoy a slightly bigger fit compared to the alternative. In running shoes I go 11 so I really only sized down a half size in boots. In wolverine 1k and Iron rangers I went 11s.

      That being said I got these in my typical 10.5 and the fit for me was perfect. If I had to say something… I could see going a little wider. But it not really being an issue for my feet.  I've had them on the last week almost all day with no issues at all.

      I would say to me it sounds like maybe you should have went 10. But I'll let others chime in

        I also want to understand what would be the difference between
        9.5d and 10d
        And
        9.5d and 9.5e

        I assume that 10d would be both longer and wider.
        And
        9.5e would be just wider…

        But would 9.5e be wider than 10d ?
        Would E width be also wider around the heel? (Where I would prefer to have good tight fit)

        @wdw , @kkibbey23 Thank you.

          @Bulatik85 I can help a little… I just compared two west engineers I have on the MP last. One is 10.5D the other is 10.5E. The heel is the same width but the E starts to widen as the boot widens and is consistency wider all the way to the toe. At the boots naturally widest point the E fitting is about 1cm wider than the D fitting.

          By the sounds of things you need a size 10 to give your toe some room. To decide width, simply assess how tight your current boot is when properly laced. How much room do your feet have at their widest point? Does the widest point of your feet match the widest point of the boot?

          I have a strong feeling that a 9.5E would be wider than a 10D, but I couldn't tell you for sure.

            @Bulatik85 I just removed your message by mistake while I was trying to quote it. My apologies…

            Your point was that the 10D would be wider than 9.5D. You're right, I'm sure it will be, but possibly not by a whole centimetre.

              Is it any difference between MP59 and MP1339?

              p.s.
              i have checked some manuals and it looks like:
              the increment of the width for full sizes is 1/4 inch ~0.63 cm. for half size ~0.3cm
              the increment of the width if you choose bigger(like E instead of D) width should be 1/4 inch ~0.63 cm

              summarizing:
              10D will be 0.3cm wider that 9.5D, and also 1/6 inch ~0.43cm longer
              9.5E will be 0.6cm wider that 9.5D

              this is not wesco info, but a general rule for US sizing… might be interesting for someone... (like me)

                Based on my investigation, looks like I need 10D.
                But there is only 10E in stock…

                To risk or not to risk?

                Also I have heard that MP1339 Last E width fits like D width for most of boot brands...
                Don't know how MP59 compared to MP1339

                  Excellent info and fits more or less with my rough physical comparison.

                  There is a difference between the MP59 and the MP1339, but I can never remember what it is. One is slimmer than the other, I think.

                                            Beckmans have kind of the same thick leather, but they have other differences.
                                            They have lighter sole, outsole is lighter, and they have corc filling under footbed, because they are Goodyear welted.
                                            Wescos have heavy outsole, no corc filling, just solid leather midsole… and they have stichdown construction.
                                            Wesco also have double leather on toebox and heel.

                                            I believe this makes the difference.
