More about this item

Purchased from “Discounted Items” section of Wesco’s website. The left vamp is pretty wrinkly, and the inside left shaft has some irregular leather (gouges/deep striations). No pull strap. Otherwise, they’re pretty clean. Looking forward to wearing the heck outta these boots!

Why I own this

Style

Always wanted to try engineer boots! Love the style and wanted to see if I could pull them off on a daily basis. I’d say they’re quite handsome, comfortable enough, and have held up amazingly in the snowy, salty, Canadian winter

How I sized

Online Guide

Brannock Measurements

Took a chance based off S&S recommendations and /r/GYW’s last sizing guides. Used my own Brannock measurements and experience with other common lasts.

Online Store

Ordered from Wesco’s discounted section. Got them for a pretty good price and they came super quick. Duties were a bit more than I’d hoped/expected - I’ll avoid UPS in the future for sure. USPS is always cheaper, if not free from fees altogether!
