If you are serious about that feel free to shoot me a note... I have a pair that have been worn briefly twice that I have been debating putting up for sale at some point to make room for some new purchases. They are 9.5D and are a fairly generous fit.

Man oh man I want a pair of these. It's the perfect casual shell.

Absolutely would but really feel I need a10D. Otherwise, my wallet would already be lighter.

Agree! I was going to leave well enough alone since I'm a bit ambivalent about selling them anyway (but would). I'm a 10D/E with a higher instep and they seem to fit pretty well. Just reaching for less casual options and not getting much use...

They are a roomy boot and it is possible that a 9.5D would work, unless your know you need 10 based on other Wolverine products.

I bannock a 9.5D but find these in 9D to be about perfect. Thing is, I can wear some Alden and Grant Stone at 8.5D and fit the fit as close to spot on as anything I've ever worn. I sometimes think Brannock is full of it.......

Huh didn’t know that. How do you like them?
A very nice boot, well made, fit is good and I am partial to a leather sole. They are certainly worth more than I paid, and wold have paid retail much earlier if I had known how much I would like them. The only thing I don't like about them is they bloom like crazy, but that isn't a major deal, just have to brush, brush, brush before wear as they bloom just sitting in their bags :)

I have the 744 and really like them. My only complaint is the lack of a heel counter. Does the 135 have one?
