MTO

Why I own this

Custom

I wanted to try a waxed flesh and the black waxed flesh was fresh on the rocker so I picked it, and I wanted the Thurman last because I love the extra toe room I got in my iron rangers but wanted a higher arch so went with the 55 last. I am not the biggest fan if logger heels but the packer heel is right up my alley I grew up wearing western style boots. And the 8inch I wanted so they weren't as hot and were more convenient to lace up. I didn't need the height for extra protection. Still probably go 8" on every boot I get next.

How I sized

Compared to Other Lasts
Brannock Measurements

I had a pair of 10.5 D builder pro in the 55 last so just changed it to Thurman and it fit great. Would just go up in width next time.

Customer Service

I ordered the boots online when they put the MTO for the horween black waxed flesh. I originally had the V-100 sole but emailed customer service and switched it to the 430 mini lug because I didn't need the aggressive sole and thought it would look ugly in a dogger heel. They were great and timely and the boots came as requested with the mini lug sole.
