I just got these from a recent MTO they had, but alas they are a bit too tight for me. Brand new, only tried on for sizing indoors. These boots represent Truman at their best I think: an amazing horsehide leather from Maryam tannery in Italy, tight and well built throughout, and back to their original (Viberg style) stitched-down construction. The latter has become rare for them.
Marked size is 10EE, but they don't feel esp wide to me, so I would say more like a 10D/E.
The horsehide, stitchdown, cap toe, and half sole were all add-ons, so the boots were expensive. Total cost was $640 (ouch). But I will immediately knock off $120, if anyone is interested. So, asking $520 to me (Paypal F&F), plus $15 shipping CONUS. It hurts to take a hit like that, but I've learned from experience that there's no sense in keeping boots that don't fit..
