Q&A

Why did you choose this item?

Availability: Limited Edition
Style

Chose this pair due to the leather from Horween. I expect them to patina like crazy and be completely different in 6 months. I typically prefer to wear slip on boots so I chose this pair to ensure I get the most use out of them although I do have at least a half dozen pair of unworn Wesco boots to choose from (too many boots and not enough feet).

How did you determine your size?

I’m 13B/C on Brannock and I have several pair of 12D Wesco engineer style boots that fit well off the shelf with a leather insert. For this pair (and a few others) I submitted a custom fit form and asked Chris at Wesco to modify my custom last based on the 12D as that seems to be my ideal size for slip on boots to really lock my foot in.
