I'm looking at a pair of Wesco Boss 7400s but I'm not familiar with Wescos sizing. Can anyone translate a Viberg 2030 11 1/2 to this Wesco. Mucho thanks

aight so i inquired both wesco and baker about packer/jobmaster sizing. wesco recommended 10 and baker recommended 11. do I split the difference and try a 10.5? That's my nicks 55 size and its working well so far. I've definitely seen comparisons/reviews state 1/2 size longer for wesco.

My brothers, I come here to lament:

I ordered a pair of Brown HH Hendriks via email through Bakers on June 22. While I’ve placed 2 previous orders through Baker’s, both times were through the website. I pay the paypal invoice and email Baker’s, as requested, to confirm my payment. Fast forward to August 31st and I’m placing another order for some Wesco’s via email through Bakers. I paid the paypal invoice, as with the previous order but this time, the order is added to my Baker’s account and I receive a confirmation email, not just from paypal but Baker’s too which didn’t happen with the previous order. I ask Kyle about it, and he kindly adds the order to my account so I can see it.

Two weeks ago was the 12 week mark for my Hendriks so I email to ask for a status update and Kyle said he’d get back with me ASAP once he contacted Wesco. Today, after 13 days of radio silence, I emailed again asking for an update and was told that Kyle was out of the office but that they’d reach out to Wesco. Then a few hours ago, I’m told that they only just placed the order earlier this month and that I have at least another 2 month wait ahead of me. With the holidays approaching, I imagine it might take longer, especially since Kyle said as much as I was placing the 2nd order. I was looking forward to having them in hand this month but, alas, I must wait longer.

The west coast is going through a crisis with the fires right now and it’s fire season so it’s going to be a long wait. Following Baker’s on Instagram right now is insightful and enlightening at times as they’ve been updating on what’s been happening on their end with the store, etc.

Can anyone compare the fit of Wescos 1339 last to Whites MP boots? I wearr 7.5ee in the Whites MP and can't decide if I should go with a 8E or 8EE in Wescos 1339.

I had the White's MP in an 8.5D and have the 1339 in a 9E. The 1339 is wider in the toe box but with less volume, and is similarly snug through the instep and heel relative to the MP.

Scored these this week in their Discount section. Nothing wrong with them that I can see, they told me that they weren't 2nds but overstock. They are beautiful and the stitching is simply spectacular. Wesco Johannes in burlap roughout, sterling stitching on uppers, white on the sole, brass hardware.

My Wesco Romeos “Anti Roller Mag” came in today!

Exact same copy of the Roller Magazine collaboration except without the Roller Mag stamp on the insole. Navy Insole too. Burgundy leather.

Did the original run of the Wesco x ship John tombstone boots have the tall heel (1.75”)? I think the standard on most of their boots is 1.5” and trying to figure out how much a difference it makes aesthetically.
