      @Crit_Obs:

      As these come with removable insoles, would it tell me anything of worth if I asked the good folks of Gosport to measure the insoles of the remaining pair, and go from there? As I haven't worn pull-on boots before I'm not savvy to all the aspects to factor in.

      Part of the explanation for the variety of solutions people have to fitting boots is of course variations in foot shape. But as Chris  has said earlier, a lot of it is in the head.
      This is especially true with pull-on boots as people often dislike heel slip and mistake it for poor fit.

      My wife uses the insole measurement trick and I think it is fine for ballpark accuracy but you can get that from general comparison and these threads. RW has become a sort of benchmark because they are somewhat ubiquitous amongst people who like our thing. My experience is that Wesco and RW sizing is similar and that my «standard» shoe size in EU/UK sizing translates into Wesco sizing too. I go a full size down compared to Adidas Originals.

            @kaacy1721 this a cool idea. Nothing in the works at the moment but we'll discuss the potential

            The devil is in the detail..

                        Really like the idea, we are refreshing what we carry from Wesco at the moment, and a similar style could be a nice addition.

                        We have a custom Morrison, Warren, and My 'Snake Eaters' coming hopefully soon to freshen things up, so keep an eye out for those.
