IHWE-MRLOU-BLK - Wesco® - 10" Horsehide Pull-On "Mister Lou" Engineer Boot - Black
-
Thank you very much @John-Galt and @Dmart ! I have to check my Brannock size (provided that I can find a device here in Switzerland) but it seems like a 7.5E is the way to go for me.
-
@AtariHunter where are you in Switzerland? I live in Lucerne. I measured my brannock with an online print form but had it confirmed at a shop.

What a coincidence! I live in Bern (lucky me, there is a shop – called Feinfracht – with IH products, or should I rather say „poor me!“?
). Good point, I will look for an online print, thanks for the hint! -

@Ross thanks man!
-
Can’t wait until these come back into stock.
-
@Ross Any other flavors of the Mr. Lou horsehides (I.e. brown, natural, etc) forthcoming or only the black? Thanks! John
-
@John-Galt ...few other flavours in the oven as well...
Although please don't ask me for an ETA yet! we're a little too early in the game for that - as soon as I have anything concrete I'll make sure all the relevant forum pages are updated with whatever info I've got
-
BTW - Anyone trying to decide between a D and E width in these - the Brannock chart indicates the difference to be 3/16”. Not sure how this plays out with the Lou’s, but my experience with the couple pair I have is that they run a little narrow to begin with.
-
@Ross Excellent to hear - looking forward to seeing what you’ve got cooking when the time comes - thanks!
-
Great news, thanks for the update!

It is indeed!

I feel almost embarrassed for asking this but…
I am a 555 man. Like a narrow hem. I assume that a 555 would allow for the Mister Lou’s to be taken on and off?
-
I would say it depends on the size you wear in the 555 and thus the hem. If you have a small waist I think it won’t work. I wear mainly 634 due to this and my waist is around 31/32. 555/777 doesn’t work over Engineers in my size. A hem of 7.5 would be the minimum for me to fit over the boots.
-
@Crispy-Heron i have a UHR and a XHSbb in 555. Both size 34 and fit over my Lofgren engineers. Mr. Lou had a even smaller shaft.
-
@Dmart - tag 30, waist around 31 inches. I can’t think my SBGs are going to work as they are narrow.
@Heavy_blue - I have a pair of UHR as well and reckon they will work as the hem isn’t quite so narrow.
Thanks for your views - may have to consider a pair of 634s or 666 SBGs!
-
@Crispy-Heron 666 fits perfectly! Although my 555’s hemm fits a 666 or 888 is much easier. And it’s alwayd a good excuse to buy a new denim
