Just got these bad boys back from Brian. Engineers with russet brown CXL horsehide, 1945 Last, woodsman 1.87 inch heel, unstructured toe box, dark brown edges, brown cork halfsole, storm welt and toe track. I am a happy camper.

These look amazing! I’m currentlywaiting on a pair of NAVY CXL, which should be here in march. Very excited!

[Nittpics]

Awesome thank you. Well with the wait @Tyler-Durden

Thanks brother! It was 3 months.

[Tyler Durden]

Anyone own underdogs? Thinking of pulling the trigger on a pair. Would love to hear some feedback.

[SourPower]

My first time using a boot jack! One of the better purchases I’ve made in a while.

[Luijim78]

@SourPower I totally agree my friend, it's the best invention since air conditioning , I couldn't do without it

[Tyler Durden]

Came home to these bad boys.

Sizing = Based on measurements I ordered a full size down from my brannock. Fit is perfect.

Engineer boot questions:

1: Do you undo instep strap before putting on?

2: Do you use plastic bags to slip on?

3: If no to question #2, Do you have issues removing boots do to moisture inside boot and socks?

I am a yes to 1 & 2.

[goosehd]

@Tyler-Durden I don't have Engineers from Role Club, but do have quite a few engineers from Wesco.

My answer to all of your questions is no and it sounds like your boots may be too small. From my understanding, engineers are supposed to fit slightly big from the start and form to your foot with wear. Heel slippage in the beginning is good and disappears when the sole flexes and the heel cup forms to your foot.

I may have this wrong though...

@Ross thoughts on Engineer boots and fit.

[pechelman]

I'm a yes, no, no. Mine fit better if I cinch the strap one position further from the neutral position. Heel slip is a good thing but I like a snug fit over the top of my foot

[mclaincausey]

Speaking generically about engineers, I definitely undo and redo vamp buckles putting boots on and off. Heel slip is fine but dissipates as mentioned.

Sometimes it may make sense to size up and insert an insole.
