US Men's Brannock: 12D
HNW Moderate Arch Standard Toe Last: 11.5D
Purchased half a size down from my brannock as recommended (not in width though) and I think that’s pretty accurate in this last. A C width in the thurman hnw last might have been better though.

Why did you choose this item?
Personally wanted something 100% constructed in the US with 100% US-sourced materials. Job requirements were that the boots had to be black in color, have a polishable toe, provide good ankle support, be made of a predominantly leather upper, and be EH rated.
How did you determine your size?
Followed online sizing guide. Half a size down from brannock.
What was the ordering process?
Once I watched a few videos and read the buying guide, I understood all the store options well enough to make the order.
