Wesco Boss Black Tie Domain Boots 12D

[AeroFan_07]

For sale is a Brand-New Pair of Wesco Boss Engineer Boots, the highly special Black Tie Domain model in a popular size of 12D (Medium width). I picked these off the Wesco Sale page about 3 weeks back, and they are wonderful boots, however they are too small for me. These boots were only carried outside to take photos of them. They have never been worn outside my house. There is a small mark in the rear of both boots noticeable in the photos due to the shoe trees I put into them to maintain the shape. I have tried them on several times, but for the reasons listed below, they just do not fit me, so letting them go for what I have in them:

(A new pair from Wesco will set you back $632)

Asking $395 + shipping in CONUS

International shipping will be actual shipping cost.

The gritty details of fit:
These Boots have the MP Toe, which is slight lower and narrower than the standard Boss toe. These are not Steel or Composite toe boots. What I find is that my left foot, which is slightly longer than my right, hits Both the top and tip of the toes in these boots. I am typically an 11.5 to 12 in boots and a D width. So it was a big surprise when my toe hit the end of these boots. I suggest if you wear more than 11 or maybe 11.5, these will be too tight for you too.

Also, these had a small flaw with the left side sole which appears to have been cut unevenly (see photos). This causes the left boot to sit a bit unevenly. This does not seem to be an issue and does not affect the fit issue I have.

I am not able to return Sale boots to Wesco due to their company policy, I have discussed it with them already.

Here is what they look like:

What size do you normally wear? I wear 11.5EE and have a little high instep. Would they be a good fit?

 

[AeroFan_07]

MET - these will be too narrow for you. I typically wear 11.5 - 12D and they are short (due to the toe as mentioned) and the boot itself runs a bit narrow.

Also, I meant to say $395 includes shipping for CONUS customers!

These will go to ebay this evening as well

Thanks for the reply. A Wesco is in my buy list. But I have never owned a Wesco and have no experience about the sizing.

Good luck with the sale.

This was my first pair of Wesco's. The standard Boss has a standard toe and probably would fit fine (normally) however this one is quite different. I hope to order a 12.5 D of the same thing if these sell....

Not really a big fan of engineer boots (mostly because it’s usually too warm here to wear them comfortably), but the ones you’re selling are stunning! GLWS.

 

[AeroFan_07]

Thanks! I am indeed a big fan of how they look and, for the most part, how they feel. If only I could stretch them.....

 

[AeroFan_07]

To the Top!

Re-offering these boots up for sale!! Great boots just really do not fit my feet!

Did you ever get the 12.5?

 

[AeroFan_07]

No, never bought another pair.
These are long sold & shipped....

Just curious if you had found a better fit

Well, I did try these Mr Lou's, found the fit to be much more suited to my feet, however the "walk" of the boot was not. I actually have no Engineer boots at all presently:

Comparison - Wesco Mr Lou to John Lofgren Engineer

So this is a really more of an "appreciation for" than a "Who is best" topic & thread. I am not a competitive person, I just simply appreciate products as they are designed & built. I mean no ill will toward any either of these two makers. Both build a high quality, durable and desirable...
