@SourPower Mine are supposed to arrive Friday. How do they fit compared to other Wesco boots you have?
-
@bluemantra I went with the same size as my Mr. Lou (11.5 E), they are roomier in the toe with a bit of heel slip but extremely comfortable.
The boss last is more casual in profile and doesn't hug the top of the foot quite as much as the Mr. Lou.
I see these becoming my go-to boots to slip on by the door on my way out of the house.Excess In Moderation

@SourPower they looks very comfortable especially with the wedge sole and boss toe. I went a 1/2 size down from my mister lou. Should work out. Did you wait long after placing the order.
-
@SourPower So I just got mine as well and noticed a bit more heel slip and not as snug at the instep compared to the mister lou. Could've probably gotten away with 1/2 size down, but hoping with wear they'll break in nicely.

Wesco custom last measuring question. I’ve decided to get a custom last for Wesco made. I couldn’t find any topic about this so thought I would add it in this section. I’d love to be able to get there and have them measure me, but that’s not possible. Anyone here do the measurements at home and have it work out well? I’ve done it for Viberg and it wasn’t a great experience. For some reason I don’t think I get the outline of my foot right. With the pencil straight up and down there seems to be quite a bit of space between the outline and my foot if that makes sense. My shins are pretty skinny so this custom way seems like the best way to go. Any tips would be welcome. I’ve looked at the Wesco video and I’m sure that will be a big help. I guess the hardest part will be waiting the 2 years for the boots to be made

@deanclean I had my wife help me do mine. In my experience, you need the help of another person to do the measurements and drawings successfully.
Stand up during the process to make the process easier for the person assisting you.

Thanks @goosehd I will definitely have my wife help. It would be nice if they had reps or something someplace that would measure you and send them to the factory. Maybe I’m just overthinking it a little.
-
@deanclean I think anyone who sells Wesco should be able to help you, but for us in the Toronto area, it is a bit of a problem.
-
@goosehd ya I’m in Waterloo so no luck here either I’m sure.
-
Great advice @pechelman I’ll take that into account. I think I also read to do the measurements in the evening because swelling of feet will be at their most then.
