Very sad to part with these. I wore them for 3 days before taking feedback from the Goodyear welt community and Kyle @ Bakers that they are a size too big. One of a kind boot.

More pics by request.

$500 OBO

If bought through Bakers' boots you should be able to return them. Even direct through White's if you call them.

Nice boots -- what matters is how do YOU think they fit?

I bought them as “final few” (no returns). I was a bit overwhelmed by custom boot process and I saw a pair I fell in love with and I am brannock 11.5 so I knew it was a gamble. I had sent my measurements into Bakers after purchase.
I feel like they fit fine but they look a bit long to me. Kyle sized me at 10.5E. I figured if I’m spending this much on boots I should really nail the sizing. As many suggested to me.

Ok cool - I just bought a Final Few pair as well -- but 11.5 D. I like working with Baker's a lot, and yes, Kyle has been great to help out.

Those look very nice and sure sorry they are not working out for you fit-wise. That's the most important part, for sure. My foot is slightly narrow - more like (ideally) 11C so your 11.5 E would likely be a bit wide for me overall. Strangely, I can fit White's & Nick's between 10.5C - 12D, but socks make a differance. The "ideal" for me is right at 11.0 C

Thanks for the welcome. I am new here but I have been around Reddit and eBay for years.
I’m a bit new to the high quality boot arena. I’ve been a red wing purist for many years but with age my feet need some more care. I hate the guessing game with footwear and how all sizes and brands fit differently. But for my first pair of high quality I wanna make sure I do it right. I do love these boots though.

^^ I hear you on this. I have a 9 year old pair of Red Wing Iron Rangers, which have been great boots (and was also my intro into better quality boots overall). Then I tried a pair of White's and it was all over from there. The construction, the arch support, the quality, the fit, it is well -- habit forming.
