    I’m a 9.5D by the Brannock, a D width in most shoes, and have two pair of Mr. Lou’s in 9E that are a perfect fit and one pair of Wesco Boss in 9D that are still slightly tight after extensive break in. Would probably also go with a 9E in the Boss if ordering again.

    No one’s happiness but my own is in my power to achieve or to destroy.

      Same here, 10D brannock and 9.5E in Lou’s if I don’t have them customized. My IR are a 9 if I am not mistaken but the IR just doesn’t fit my feet (too narrow and too long).

        Thank you very much @John-Galt and @Dmart ! I have to check my Brannock size (provided that I can find a device here in Switzerland) but it seems like a 7.5E is the way to go for me.

          @AtariHunter where are you in Switzerland? I live in Lucerne. I measured my brannock with an online print form but had it confirmed at a shop.

            What a coincidence! I live in Bern (lucky me, there is a shop – called Feinfracht – with IH products, or should I rather say „poor me!“?💰😅). Good point, I will look for an online print, thanks for the hint!

                        @Ross Any other flavors of the Mr. Lou horsehides (I.e. brown, natural, etc) forthcoming or only the black? Thanks! John

                          @John-Galt ...few other flavours in the oven as well...

                          Although please don't ask me for an ETA yet! we're a little too early in the game for that - as soon as I have anything concrete I'll make sure all the relevant forum pages are updated with whatever info I've got

                            BTW - Anyone trying to decide between a D and E width in these - the Brannock chart indicates the difference to be 3/16”. Not sure how this plays out with the Lou’s, but my experience with the couple pair I have is that they run a little narrow to begin with.

                                    I feel almost embarrassed for asking this but…

                                    I am a 555 man. Like a narrow hem. I assume that a 555 would allow for the Mister Lou’s to be taken on and off?

                                      I would say it depends on the size you wear in the 555 and thus the hem. If you have a small waist I think it won’t work. I wear mainly 634 due to this and my waist is around 31/32. 555/777 doesn’t work over Engineers in my size. A hem of 7.5 would be the minimum for me to fit over the boots.

                                        @Crispy-Heron i have a UHR and a XHSbb in 555. Both size 34 and fit over my Lofgren engineers. Mr. Lou had a even smaller shaft.

                                          @Dmart - tag 30, waist around 31 inches. I can’t think my SBGs are going to work as they are narrow.

                                          @Heavy_blue - I have a pair of UHR as well and reckon they will work as the hem isn’t quite so narrow.

                                          Thanks for your views - may have to consider a pair of 634s or 666 SBGs!
