How’s the fit?

How’s the fit?

Probably my best fitting pair, half down from heel to ball brannock is spot on. Toebox is tall and with good volume, arch support is a little less than white's arch ease, but is shaped better and not just a ledge when new, heel counter/pocket is the deepest of any boot I own and the last has a built in pocket for the ball of the foot which hits just right.

They look great! Looks like it’s identical or similar to Goto-sans round last. I definitely want to try that for my next pair when I can see him again.

I really want a full on pair of WKs now

Finally received my RDT Casper’s from tempo last week. I sized down 0.5 and got size 11 as recommended by RDT, probably could have went 10.5 but it’s pretty comfortable. All in all pretty happy with the boots, just wouldn’t order from tempo again.

Damn, yours took a little longer to get to you. What a shitshow, dealing with that store.

Anyway, they look great — my first thought was that mine were maybe a bit too big, but I've actually been really enjoying the extra room.

Also dig those sashiko jeans! Great fit and fabric.

Snagged these the other day, thought someone here would be interested. $800 shipped.

What a great find! I wish they fit me. They will certainly make someone’s week.

Got these RDT Caspers a few weeks ago and they’re one of my favorite things I own now. Very comfortable, funky but kinda sexy. Only issue is I have some weird grain on one, and I wish I could get these in something other than CXL for that reason

Does anyone know how much the clinch monkey boots were when they came out? Not the new Gary's but the older, short model.

Any pics of that?

How did you size these? Sizing seems to vary quite a bit amongst different vendors.
