…@Paul9221 how long did your build take? I've been thinking about a pair of Lou's ever since I received my last boots.
Always fun to have something to look forward to. -
Wow
Would like to see you wearing them Giles ! -

Found a pair of Wesco 7500's to try in in 9.5D that I can try on for sizing, then return and use toward a deposit on the mister lou's. Should have those beginning of August and can report back for a point of reference for anyone who might find useful.
Well, that didn't go very well. The 9.5D is too long and too wide and also somehow too small in the toe box as it's pressing down on my toe nails. Never had any boots or shoes fit so weird. I emailed wesco for what to do next but open to any input from the collective wisdom here as well. But damn are these things beautiful. Hope I can find the right size.

It’s going to cost you bigly, but you can get your boots rebuilt by Wesco to go down in a width or up in width. I had a MP toe boss in D width once that was too narrow later rebuilt in E width. You can find them posted in this thread. It’s the Horween Horsehide one.

@pechelman what's your Brannock size? Also, do you have any other boots in the sort of Wesco realm? By that I mean just sort of big-running, similar level of quality boot/shoemakers.
