Thinking about pulling the trigger on a pair of Trench Boots. If I wear a US 10 in Redwing Iron Rangers, which size should I get for the OSB Trench Boot? Any advice greatly appreciated!

Hi All,
Greetings from Singapore.
First time.poster on this thread. Got myself a pair of plain toe Trench Boots in Natural CXL, US13 from the recent sale. The Elston last is quite roomy and fit nicely for the few mins that i had them on. The boots are packed back in the box though as I am debating whether tomparticipate in the Patina Thunderdome with this pair.
Some pictures...

Interesting tidbit of info. I called Oak Street today to check up on when they'd be restocking the Trench Boot in a particular makeup. She told me it would be a few months out, because they are overhauling some things with the Trench Boot -- in particular, switching over to hand stitching. Thought that was pretty noteworthy (and exciting) info.

What does hand stitching mean?

I've owned many pairs of OSB over the years. The prices now are quite nice. The quality and value for the price is excellent IMO. These aren't Viberg, no, but then again these aren't $700
2 years later and Viberg is now $800 and OSB is about $460-$508 depending on the boot.

Alright, I'm thinking of getting a pair of two of the Trench boot, with the Dainite sole.

Options: Natural CXL Cap toe with storm welt (this makes their puckering "issues" invisible) and I have to wait for it to return in late October/early November.

Natural Roughout CXL - really neat looking..... Pray the welt wasn't pulled too tight

Natural CXL, plain toe - looks great, similar issue to the roughout.

Note, if my first Oak Street boot isn't the NATURAL Roughout, my second probably will be.

Thoughts?

I have still not worn my Natural CXL Trench Boots but just got these Huckberry x Oakstreet Bootmakers Trench Boots in Natural Horse Rump, first wear. They were on sale for $300 which I think is a steal, especially for US13 size which is hard to come by anyway.
Elston Last is great! Next best after the Trubalance for me.

Anyone know when the next OSB general sale is?

I've seen they usually have one in the late Fall or early winter and maybe one in late Spring/early summer.

Is that still Accurate?
