I just snagged a large at Dutil Denim in Toronto. They have M, L, XL and XXL in stock. Not on their website yet so give Scott a call.

Western style CPO shirt in 17oz cotton duck canvas that is heavyweight, hardwearing and functional, it will age nicely to reflect the extensive amount of wear it attests to. The CPO style cut offers a little more length in the body than our standard western cut, with additional side pockets.

Thanks fellas. This boot game is savage.

Follow-up question for the boot stretch vets…..have you had any experience with vertically stretching to increase the volume of the toe box? I find that the top of my big toe nail is rubbing against the bottom of the toe cap in my Wesco Guildsman. Thanks!

These are phenomenal boots. Total quality and now sold out in 9D. They have been worn sparingly but do have a few scuffs. Or patina, depending on your perspective! I’m only selling as I have finally (mostly) figured out my proper boot size.

@jkrogsgaard The IHSH-440 looks pretty close. Apparently dropping soon. Only available in Japan though and they don’t ship.

These are beautiful boots. Only worn once or twice but I still managed to scuff them in a couple of places (pictured). My foot is too wide so I’ve made the difficult decision to sell them.

Standard sizing recommendation is one half size smaller than your Brannock measurement.

Thanks very much for all the helpful feedback. I’m a Brannock 9.5. I think if I had gone down a half size to a 9 the fit would be fine. Unfortunately, I went down a full size to an 8.5. I wish I could blame an online retailer but I tried them on in store. They felt snug but I thought that was part of the deal with these boots, ie. that you need to break them in.

Thanks fellas!

Red indicates where I’m feeling the pinch.

@northsouthdenimguy thanks very much for your response. I think you are right given how structured the combat boot is in the toe box.

Gentleman! I was wondering if anyone could offer their experience with getting boots stretched.

My conundrum is that I bought a pair of John Lofgren Combat Boots but the width in the toe box is a little more snug than I’d like. I’ve worn them about a dozen times and I’m on the fence between gambling on getting them stretched vs selling them.

Any thoughts from boot stretch veterans would be most appreciated. Thanks!

I bought the wrong size so this has sat in my closet. Medium (38). Bought new and has never been worn.

P2P - 20.25”
