That is a good quesiton! I know the "E" range is narrower than the "F" but I am usually a "C" to "D" and had a pair of White's a while back that were a 12 "FF" and I could wear them, but double-socking helped. Could try asking the folsk at Baker's Boots or call White's direct. We are taking...
I should try that Barrel test. I have a perfect "test" jacket for it just now in fact...
Where is my gravel & sand mixture? Home Depot is 5 minuites away... :)
So right back into the jackets -- here is a really nice, thick Steerhide 30's Premier Half Belt, from around 2014. Original owner, 22 - 22.5" Pit to Pit. Looks like it needs breaking in. At $400 now:

Pretty well stated here Guppy. Names, and "brands" do indeed have a lot of meaning.
Very close to where I grew up in East Central Illinois, there were two car dealerships that chose to use thier famiy name. Given the name, it might have been advisable to choose otherwise:

You all might find this detailed article helpful and insightful into Horween. I still have the "Gear Patrol" issue this came out in print. It is the only issue of Gear Patrol I have.

Not a jacket - but a pair of Burgundy Semi-Dress White's in 9.5 F so maybe up to a size 10 would fit well, on the wide side with these.
Staring bid of $250 - or offer. Look very nice!

Late to this too! Sure sorry to have missed this JMax and very glad you are ok and starting to heal up there.
More reason than ever to keep my LW J23 around!
A lot of good information on here. I learned a lot reading back overall this. It would take a while to process it all.
Thanks "Hide & Seek" for chiming in as well, it must have been some interesting conversations with Horween in the '80's, but golly has that ever helped out thier business...
Wish I could, but would really like to keep this whole package together. Yes there are options for Collars. I think Carrie at TB also has a lead on them too...
Back with me - and it's back up for sale again. $1700 Shipped CONUS. Please reach out to me via DM to arrange, I would prefer we do this as a Normal Pay Pal transaction. Really has not seen much if any additional wear. This is some of the grainiest 4 oz FQHH I have seen on Lost Worlds...
I would recommend calling them directly during business hours next week. I know they offer different types of leathers, etc but I have not heard of Langlitz making much for modifications on this jackets themselves.
Sounds like you are on a good track - good but not perfect fit, durable (cotton drill lining is my preffered) and simple, straightforward styling. That FQHH in Brown will look amazing after some wear in as well.
