    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    They are starting to feel better! Took some wearing through gritted teeth / different sock / insole combos, but they've started to give in to my feet a bit. So much so that I managed to wear the last two days in a row haha. Here's some pics of how they're looking after a few weeks on and off wear.

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    That's interesting @Blackadder , on other forums I've seen that people find them relatively comfortable with little heel slip but I guess everyone's experience is different. I'm on my second day of wearing them and they do feel a bit more comfortable but I don't feel that they're broken in yet...

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    @Carlos840 thanks for the fit guide. Is there any indicator as to whether my heel is escaping the heel cup / going above the stitching?

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Thanks @Carlos840 that's really helpful info. I don't think I'm experiencing more than 3cm of heel lift but it's quite hard to tell / measure what with my foot being inside the boots. I have a think insole and am wearing 2 pairs of socks, but that's giving me the problem of creating too much...

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Thanks guys, you're making me feel like / wanna feel like they fit! Hopefully with some insoles / heel pads they'll work. The foot is fine really, I'm just not sure how much heel lift ones meant to have and if these have too much!

    The toe feels okay, just the back part of my foot and heel there's quite a bit of movement.. Is this something you experienced?

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    So I went and picked up my engineers from the depot (I paid the fine and got a complaint form - hopefully I will get some £ back but not much by the looks of things). The attractions are beautiful but I'm unsure about the sizing! They feel quite snug on the toes / foot but very roomy in the...

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    I too am having to pay some kind of admin fee / express delivery fee, even though the item was meant to arrive in 3 days and due to the customs hold up its still lost in the system somewhere. Very frustrating and doesn't seem like there's much I can do about it apart from not order expensive...

    Not sure if it makes a difference but the order was made directly through email and PayPal so I didn't actually tick or see any t&c

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Thanks @wdw I'll find the form and give that ago. I've been in touch with hms and it looks like it is a legit charge - 30% of the items cost etc. Frustrating as had I known I might have ordered differently

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Yes, vat/import duty. I wrote to attractions asking why I wasn't informed of this and they said they hadn't experienced it before. Really frustrating!

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    Still in engineer boot hell - my attractions have arrived in the UK but I am having to pay an unexpected import / vat tax of £250! Seriously hope they fit.. Has anyone else experienced these extortionate charges?

    @Justhandguns what size did you get? Hope the extra hole in the strap helps! J

    @Gav, what's the difference? Really hope they fit!

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    I believe so too. I'll be interested to see responses from others when they receive theirs. I actually saw a pair of the SJC acorn engineers up for sale on here today, so guessing there's a few unhappy folk. I'm just glad to know that their is actually a problem with them and it wasn't just in...

    Engineer Boots Crisis!

    @wdw I didn't get a time line from SJC. He'll get my boots back by tomorrow / Monday and well go from there. We haven't discussed refunds yet, he just asked me to send the boots back which is a start. Ordered the attractions straight from the site. They were pricey, £600 inc delivery. I believe...
