Review

First boot I encountered that fit my feet perfectly. Zero discomfort during initial wear as the tumbled leather is supple and the footbed quickly molded to my feet. Like many here I have "combination" feet - wider, flatter left foot that flares a bit at the ball and a relatively normal right foot. The 1757 last from AE handles them well - If only all my boots could fit this well! The tumbled leather creases readily, giving a "loose grain" look which some might not like. And the unlined tongue is a bit of a nuisance as it tends to wander about while wearing. But none of that matters when I put them on because they fit so well.

Red Wing suggested an 11 EE based on their fit but I opted for an 11.5 EE as this model includes an additional leather insole. Glad I did, as the toe box on this boot is a bit tight width-wise on my left pinky toe. Also, the backstay and counter are nearly vertical, while I prefer a more protruding heel area so I'm having to work a bit to stretch the counter to fit better. Conditioned them with Bick 4 a couple of times to loosen things up and I continue to stretch the heels daily. CRT leather is nice, with great pullup.

WAY too narrow in the toe box for me, even after using a stretcher for two weeks! Good quality for the money, but a poor fit for my flipper feet.
