I think there’s a 6 too, and a 6C in their MP boots, if you want to go full LOTR / CHiPS crossover?
A little Frodo Estrada?
(Sorry @Madame Buttonfly )

@Giles if you go to surplus there’s the same pair for for $95 in a men’s 6.5B
As far as I remember it was mostly Boss's and Morrisons and mostly in particularly small sizes (7 and 8's)
I don’t think I’ve ever hit an ‘add to cart’ button faster
They have a few pairs of women’s size Morrison’s for $95 still but all the real steals are gone.
The Boss’s have some loose grain on one vamp and a few water stains but for $120 I couldn’t say no so I’ve been using them as my beaters to get a real patina going - I’ll be sure to post when they’re good and battered
(first real post so mods feel free to move if I'm in the wrong place)
WESCO seemed to be having a sale on their factory seconds the last few weeks, and I picked up a pair of veg tan Boss's with a Vibram 700 sole for $140 delivered and these beauties for $95 delivered. :o
According to the seconds label, the 'uppers lean back slightly' but nothing at all noticeable.

From a small amount of digging and this stamp, I think they may have been samples for the Japanese market?
I had a pair arrive today and after hand washing and hot soaking, I got 1.5" exactly shrink in the inseam and less than a quarter inch in the waist.
I bought true to size, so the shrink and stretch should cancel each other out.
Hey all, thought I would take a minute to do this.
I've been wearing raws for the last 10+ years, A.P.C's, Diors, Nudie, Strike Gold, etc.
Right now I'm rotating some Studio D'Artisan SD-307, Skulls 5010xx's and some LVC 1947 501's and just ordered some IH-634-DD after buying a few IH pocket shirts in Australia and getting hooked on the quality.
Thanks all for being a great help with sizing and fit already, I look forward to plenty more fun to come!
