I agree. I had wesco boss in 10d, the same size as my attractions and as I said earlier, they were painfully tight across the instep. Attractions are like slippers in comparison.

My experience with Attractions is that they fit .5 larger than Brannock size. Aka size down. For reference, I'm 10 Brannock, 10 Converse All Stars, 10 WESCO, 9.5 White's, 9.5 Alden Barrie/Truebalance, 9.5 Attractions

Best fit once on, and sleekest looking last on the market IMO, but damn near impossible to get on and off, and the heel balance feels a bit off to me

Just scored a pair of 70's soft-toe Work America engineer boots on the Bay, and these awesome 50s Sears engineer boots:

My Red Wing 2268s re-worked by Role Club. Brian replaced steel toe with celastic, woodsman heel a hair shorter than normal, relasted, resoled, new footbed, and brass roller buckles. They fit great and I think look pretty snappy for old dogs. :)

Very nice!

Looking back at page 56...See what happened there, Bret? Boyo got his Road Champs and I forgot what we were talking about ;)
Plus that was 3 years ago...How am I supposed to remember that far back?
Where did those keys go?
