If a 9.5D in Red Wing fits snug a 9.5E might work…

Thanks dude - maybe I'll go ahead and get "measured" up!

I think they may work with a thick insole….

Thanks!  Decisions decisions…

What pair are you eyeballing @Appfaff?

There has been this sample pair of burlap morrisons on the bootery site that have been tempting me for months lol

[Finkster]

^ nice steal … and damn fine RO burlap leather! 

[Appfaff]

@Finkster - I agree on all accounts… now I'm just trying to convince myself these are "Spring/Summer" boots and will forgo grabbing any other warm weather footwear purchases...

[Appfaff]

And…........

Copped

Since my wife was beyond generous and purchased my Road Champs for me for Easter, I finally saw the light when it comes to well made boots.

I'll post pics once they arrive!

Hidden in a quiet place with your name on them....

Good work! They look great. I've got a custom order in but they won't be ready 'til June. I'm impatient to say the least

[Appfaff]

Thanks @madmonday and @neph93 - Im excited about them to say the least. I  have been wanting a tan pecos style boot for ages, so these fit the bill nicely.

Now I gotta run and get some insoles and weather proofer haha

@Appfaff FWIW, I'm an 8.5D in Red Wings (Iron Ranger & Beckman) with thin socks, and I'm a 9E or 9.5D in Wescos with medium-weight or thick socks.  On the brannock, I'm a 9.5D (L) and 9E (R).  Hope this helps/reassures, even though they're already en route!

[Appfaff]

Thanks dude!  Sounds like it should work out just fine!

Congrats! … The Bootery for the win

Top notch construction - super heavy. Just what I would expect!

Foot fits nice and snug, but have some major heel slip.. Maybe I'm an E midfoot and a D heel… Anyways, I'll probably get an insole for them once they break in a bit!

@Appfaff  Those look great!  How do they feel length-wise?  I imagine heel-slip will subside over time, as things loosen up and the sole becomes more pliable.

[Appfaff]

@Engineer - the length and feel around the arch and toes is 100% perfect. Snug with just enough room to accommodate some stretch.  I'm sure the heel will tighten up as the heel cup molds to me foot.  Really beautiful boots. Glad I was able to snag these!

[Giles]

The heel slip will subside with time.  You can try heating the heel cup with a hair dryer and squeezing it. It will deform with heat…..
