You missed one point
You can ring +44 (0)2392 521541. -
Package secured! Super pumped to get this one. There was only 5 in my size too, I imagine this will go quick.

I am a size 10 in Red Wing, and I also take a 10 in Wesco, Wesco generally equal to Red Wing, do you know your brannock size? Wesco Boots will be often be 1 to 1.5 sizes down from from your branock device measurement or your US sneaker size.
Hope that helps

They arrived! You know what, I think the black with the warm weft looks good.
Feels softer, definitely easier to get on too.
Time to beat up a new pair.
The brown behind it officially have a year of wear this month.

Ordered... Very, very excited. Cheers..

I'm here to admit to some serious FOMO. I've long lusted after the Mr. Lou, especially in CXL. Alas, my feet simply do not fit into the boots as constructed. I even made a trip to Wesco HQ to try on a few sizes. No dice. Actually, that's not true. I swore. A lot. And managed to break a sweat. I did get one pair one but I think it was way too long.
In any case, these are absolutely killer boots, and the pictures posted are excellent. Enjoy, please (because I can't)!

@Bobcat-Sig get measured and go custom. I did 17 years ago and haven’t regretted it at all…
-
@goosehd You totally stole my thunder.
I ended up doing just that. I couldn't get the same midsole as what's part of the Mr Lou, which meant a different heel stack, but everything else was as close as it could be. And despite being custom-measured, the boots just don't fit all that well. They are almost too wide, and the heel slip has never abated. They do look great, though. I'll go dig out a picture...
-
While they’re coming along, the heel creases give me an indication that the boot is too big. I think. Wesco enlarged the shaft and added a bit to the instep to accommodate my wide forefoot and high instep.
Similar details to the Mr Lou, save for the heel stack and height, which I was told wasn’t possible in the build.
Otherwise, I do like them.

@Bobcat-Sig Their custom program does (at least used to) allow for twerks to get the fit right. Did you go back and work with them?
Also used to be able to update your measurements once in a while to allow for growth, fallen arches, widening of feet, etc.
I don’t know if they still do, but it may be worth taking them back and seeing what they can do. If I was in their backyard, I would be there enough that my wife would file divorce papers…
-
@goosehd lol! A man after my own heart.
During the build, there was a fit with the upper. And admittedly, I wasn’t sure what to check for with respect to fit. Mainly, as newbie, I wanted to be sure it wasn’t too tight. And this was all during the pandemic, so lots of variables.
I’m a little ashamed to even admit that I was mostly clueless. Chris at Wesco helped me through out the process, so maybe an email is in order.
Great suggestion. Thank you.
