I’ve been pretty obsessed with engineer boots for the last year or so, but always worried that it would look to try hard or costumey, but my gf finally talked me into giving them a shot. But sometimes  you just can’t make a decision on color. Ironhheart natural Essex 8.5d and standard & strange natural cxl 8.5e. In al honesty I didn’t even realize the ironhearts were d width when I ordered them. But I measure closer to C width so it seemed to work out for the intended use. Essex for work and going out, cxl for rain, snow, yard work. I’ll have to stretch the instep on the Essex a bit but with now soft the leather is I don’t think it’ll be an issue.

Edit. Instep is an issue I’ll be exchanging for a 8.5e.

Thanks y’all. Ha yep had to through the birks on. @Joberwocky  If you pick up a pair I’d recommend the soft foot bed for sure. Super comfortable out the box.

On the money. Hopefully they’ll help get some of this yard work done this weekend.

Been 90+ During the day all week with high humidity. Just spent an hour reading over sizing advice for overalls  ???  Sent Chesson and email to confirm. See you’ll next week!

Thanks! Feels even better after wearing it around tonight. It’s a medium I’m 5’8-9 168lbs.

Got delivered yesterday along with blanket lined CPO ( IHSH-252-IND ) both in medium. I’ve put on about 15lbs in the last few months and went up a pant size so my other jackets were pretty tight. Thinking this fits pretty well for now, and should fit even better once i lose some of the weight. The 14.7oz is pretty breathable was 60 heat today and felt great over a tshirt.  Excited to see how this ends up looking in a couple months.

Yes shirting sorry. Glad to hear there will be plenty to choose from, looking forward to grabbing a few.

Some lightweight options < 6 oz would be awesome for layering and summertime.
