all leather stretches, regardless. CXL does not stretch excessively, but it will stretch. I would not in any shape or form, try to size down with the inevitable stretch in mind.
^ Ummm Shell, Kangaroo, pig, bison, elephant, ostrich, shark, lizard and about a million others are all tougher... I can testify personally to the durability boot-wise, but in all honesty you arent gonna be touring on a bike for a few years or discovering ruins in the Amazon or anything so they should be a damn fine boot for normal wear.
^ did you add the vibram on top of a single leather? afaik height on lowered (vibram + single leather) = single leather standard heel height
For anyone that this might benefit - I called Bakers and they confirmed that they are able to make boots up to size 16. During the Build-a-Boot order process you just need to put in a note that you want/need a size 16.
Again - I appreciate all of the feedback in this thread. There are so many choices for these boots and this thread has been a terrific resource.
