      I have never worn engineer boots before and now looking to get a pair of this.
      Currently, My foot is about 25.5cmL and 10cmW. I'm wearing Redwing Beckman Flatbox in 8D but I still have a little bit tight in width (my pinkie) that makes me feel not really comfortable when using it in a long time.
      Is it ok for me to get Mr.Lou in 8E? or should I go with 8.5E?

                  @Oaktavia so the video was pretty boring. They popped right on, for the most part. The right one is a little tight on the top of the instep, but the left one goes right on, in a Good way. Still plenty of tightness with minimal slippage.

                            Sorry for the low quality photo. I was walking through the woods with my dogs the other day and when we got back I noticed a pretty big scratch as you can see in the photo. Do I need to do anything to protect the boot from tearing further? Or is this a normal occurrence form wear and tear?

                                  Does anyone out there have a photo(s) of a super broken in pair? And does the black wear away to reveal brown underneath?

                                    I've seen a couple, that will eventually be some great patina. The brown will show through in areas all over the boots after a good amount of time. IMHO, I would definitely condition that spot, if not both boots entirely. Mine came super thirsty, but I wore them for a few weeks before conditioning with Saphir renovateur.
