I have fallen in love with this pair of boots and need a final sanity check before copping.
All right. This is propably the pinnacle of me overthinking. I have been looking at this pair of boots for like 2 months now (Heritage Boot Co, Mesquite) and feel like it is time to either pull the trigger or to not do it at all. Kinda need a final sanity check. I already called them and talked about sizing and they seemed quite competent in their sizing recommendation.
Why I like them:
I find black boots easiest to style. I have a pair of black cowboy side-zips that has featured in plenty of my WAYW Posts. I occasionally feel myself thinking "I wish I had a second pair (of black cowboy boots) so that I had the option to wear them every day."
I think them being rough-out leather gives them a different feel compared to smooth skin boots so there is still a certain amount of variance to it.
I really like the stitching, to me it feels like just the right amount to be visually interesting without being too much.
I like the riding heel, I think higher heels just create an interesting silhouette and add a bit of dramatic flair.
I like the pointy toe. I think it goes quite well with flared pants, which I really like as well.
Arguments against them:
Do I really need a second pair of black cowboy boot thingies?
Its stupid buying something that expensive online?
Returning them would be a monumental pain. I am afraid that we might have sized wrongly.

These are hot, just make sure you know your size
I had a long chat with one of their folx via the phone.
Also this was what the brannock device was ordered for lol
Knowing your brannock helps so much honestly
I say go for it then, they’re super cool

sendies?
What did they reccomend?
Size wise
US 11. They told me the boot runs slightly larger and has a wide toe box. and that should propably work relatively well with me having a long foot but short toes
I think I saw you wearing one of their pairs recently?
Ok just curious. I bought a pair in store and i think i went a full size down from my usual shoe size
thats reassurring to hear
bc 11 sounds small to me
but if they run that large it makes sense
How do you like yours?
i bought a pair with same heel and toe shape, here are a few pics of how they look on foot with different types of pants. I really like them, best boots ive ever worn
the JP jones, right?
The toe upturns a little and is a tad longer then you are probably used to so its a bit more of a unique look but i feel like they have worked super well with basically any outfit ive worn them with
Yes the jp jones
They are pretty hot
The heel is a little taller than im used to so it required some adjusting to but the leather is super supple and comfortable and they break in very quickly
The sticker shock is certainly big but honestly i think they are 100% worth the money
Also given your more classic styling i think they will fit well into your wardrobe
What is your foot width?
My Brannock is 11,5D based on the foot lenght and 13C based on the ball length. Basically my foot is actually not that wide, its just that the widest part is quite far out front. So basically I have short toes
I usually wear EU 45
Ok i think you should be fine at an 11
Mine are a bit narrow but fit fine on my feet, if my feet were wider i would be worried about comfort. So at an 11.5d i think you should be fine. Remember there should be a bit of heel slip in boots so dont let that worry you
I am usually a 10.5D and i went down to a 9.5 D but based on your description of your foot shape i think the 11 is more appropriate based on where the widest point of your foot is
All right
thank you so much!
Hope you enjoy them! You picked out a pretty pair!
Allright
see ya later, gotta cop now
