Footwear to go with our jackets

[Tom71]

I was lucky, i went into the shop Vancouver, and he had my size in, true to size seems to work for me, but ive seen lots of people say they size down half a size, like anything, if you can try them on thats the best way.

I am the same. I size the MrLou just like any RedWing. I have minimal heel slip but overall a great fit without having to fiddle to get them on/off.

Of all the Engineers I have tried, the MrLou is the best value for money for my feet.

My USGI surplus ICW boots with kilties added, recently I beat the snot out of them doing a bunch of trail hopping on my hot rodded minibike and decided to see how they'd look with some brown color added to the heavy wear areas.

My Wesco Mr Lou's have broken in a treat, nice and comfortable, the midsoling took the most to soften up, but now theyre great, im an 8, and so are the boots, I love em.

Good grief I wish I'd kept all my vinyl.

Good grief I wish I'd kept all my vinyl.

I just came back from Japan, and brought a few more back with me, not too bad, seeing as this all fits in my only carry on bag, and I never check luggage, fair to say, it ends up being on the heavy side.

One of my fave bands, i also saw em in 86, played for 15 mins, Willam had his back to the crowd the entire time, so much feedback and noise, 15 year old me was blown away.

Didn’t think there’d be another budget rock fan on here… some great records there.

I sometimes think I may be less sensitive to fitment than some I've met. I bought Wesco Morrison boots in 10.5D which is a size I'm comfortable in with a few other brands of boots. When they're a little roomy I yank the insole out and put a nicer one in for ten bucks. Did the same to the Chippewa harness boots I have on ATM. Works great and the fit is perfect. The Wesco's just have a leather insole that works fine but it's not like they're magic. Stuff a new and thicker version in if you like and all is well.

I’m in love with my Mr Lou! Like you, same size as my Red Wings worked like a charm. Easy on, easy off

Here are my John Lofgren Steadfast boots I’ve worn since 2019. A few years ago Unsung House resoled them with a chunkier Dr. Sole outsole, I like how they look much more than before.

I just got the message that my Sagara boots are finished and will ship soon!

I’m not a boot guy and these are bottom tier but I love these doc marten Chelsea boots. They are wide enough for my platypus foot and super easy to walk in.

I still have my brown model 8908 Docs that I bought in 1998. I picked up the same model in several other colors over the years and still wear them occasionally. Lots of memories made in those shoes.

 

[Pandemic]

Maybe someday someone will do some GYW docs in nice leathers, half and wide sizes
