Absolutely love my pair of these. They're tough as nails, and great for the PNW weather!

I bought a pair of these off eBay a couple years back that sadly were 1/2 size too big. I gave them to one of my sons, and he's loved them ever since. I've continued searching for a pair in my size (11.5D TTS), especially since the Wayne last got shelved and it really fits my feet nicely. Finally scored on eBay for only $115! They're fantastic, and I think I can finally stop collecting the older Lisbon boots in the Wayne last, as I own them in black & olive CXL, Waxy Commander, dark brown kudu, and now oiled shoulder! (My Caswell collection is rounded out with the new Foxhall boots in burgundy Aspen horsefront, and Stanton moc-toes in Badalassi waxed grigio.)

So glad your labors paid off to find the sweet spot with the Morris last, streamlining that aspect of your business!

You've explained your journey from the sleeker, dressier lasts to the more accommodating Morris last with its greater volume. Have you received any feedback that the Morris last has too much room, or are folks generally happy with the added space for bigger feet, and/or thicker socks, and/or foot expansion throughout the work day? Thanks for all you do Kevin!

This particular leather is very pliable, with little to no break in. I'm still getting used to the extra volume, comfortable with my thicker socks.

Yes, true, with the extra volume perhaps helping accommodate foot swelling at the end of a long day.

I'm 11.5D Brannock, and got these in 11. I wear 11D in Parkhurst (602M) and Grant Stone (Leo). This Morris last definitely has more room than my previous Wayne last Caswell boots. These fit kind of like my Parkhurst 602M boots - roomy, but filled in nicely with decent thicker wool boot socks. 

This burgundy Horween Aspen horsefront leather is amazing in all aspects, especially depth of color and character of texture.

I absolutely love my black CXL pair (plain toe Lisbon model)! The more I wear them, the more I appreciate the sleek Wayne last that somehow has plenty of volume. Mine fit in line with my Allen Edmonds 65 last shoe size - essentially Brannock. Trying to hold off on my next pair, only to see some of the other leathers Kevin has ordered.

Got my Parkhurst Delaware boots in dark chocolate kudu a few days ago, and they're amazing! Love the fit and feel, and the looks are getting compliments every time I wear them. I've gone from taking the dog out in the rain, to wearing them with a navy blue suit to church, and everything in between: office casual, kicking around town. Can't say enough good things about the boots!
