I'm happy to say these are all I hoped for.  My fourth pair of Wesco's, so I know build quality is top notch.  I was a bit concerned about the width, as there was conflicting information about the last, but I went with my normal D and all is good.  If on the fence, just get a pair.  You won't regret it.  Even my wife is impressed.

Looking Good! Mine just shipped, should be in next week. I like the laces, did they come with the boots? I was thinking raw hide laces, but digging the look of yours.

Beautiful boots. I'm thinking about replacing a pair of worn out Red Wing Iron Rangers.  Wonder how these would compare to Red Wings and John Lofgren boots. Also clueless on how to size these boots. I'm a size 10 D in Red Wing Heritage boots, 10 D in Lofgren Engineers boots and 9.5 in Lofgren Combat boots. Any and all advise would be greatly appreciated.

Question on sizing. I wear 10 D in all my Red Wing boots which include Iron Ranger, Moc Toe, Round Toe, Engineer and Beckman. Would you suggest going with a 10 D on these boots as well. Thanks

Recieved a email from Iron Heart the other day. Informed me that when I ordered my boots the details on the boots read 1339 last but that was incorrect and they will be using a MP95. From what I've read on other blogs the 1339 last runs narrow and the MP95 last runs wide. I'm wondering if I should switch to a 10 D instead of my original order which is a 10 E. All my Red Wings boots are a 10 D and my Lofgren Combat boots are a 9.5 D. Any one have thoughts and comments between the widths on the 1339 last and MP95 last. Thanks in advance.

@AdamC:

After building myself up a few hours at a time the boots are now nicely broken in and super comfy 

Looks great. Thanks for the pics. My order is in.  Now if only we can all get ours early. 

@wdw:

Ordered.  I tried to resist, but it was futile.

@Alex, as a matter of interest, what length are the laces?  I find laces generally come in shorter than I like, so usually buy longer ones.

I ordered last week. Right there with you brother, I couldn't resist. Now the waiting game begins.

Really digging these boots. Never owned a pair of Wesco boots before so I feel like I'm going in blind on a preorder. I'm a 10D-US on most of my Red Wing Hertitage boots,  9.5 US on Lofgren Combats and 10.5-US on most sneaker and hiking boots. Any coments or comparisons from Wesco owners would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I would go for a 10E.

Thanks for the sizing tip. After doing some internet sizing reviews on Wesco, the 10-E seems to be the right fit for me. I missed out on the JL Black Cats from SS which I really liked, but think these Wesos will fit the bill as the look is similar.
