Finally joined the GS club, with some of the new tan suede diesels on wedge. Incredibly comfortable and great, great fit.

that is interesting, do you have a side by side comparison, i thought 1757 last would be a touch shorter in length

It might be. But I find even the HM in D to be pretty voluminous. For me, easily as wide as the Leo E.

Sounds right. I can squeeze (uncomfortably mind you) into a 9D HM and there’s no way I could do that on the Leo last (too narrow, especially the instep).

I dont think there is much difference. One thing i can say is higgins mill’s sole is s littel curvy and diesel boots sole is littel flat may be thats the reason few people feel its littel longer

Thank you for the picture comparison!
Higgins mill comes close but the pictures also make me want a dune diesel, tho I have too many boots for barely any reason to go out

My Dune Travelers are my most frequently worn shoe. I put them on at some point just about everyday.
