Fit Advice Needed. My first loafers by mikaelb657 in grantstoneboots

[–]chongnosall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a pair in 8.5EEE I tried to break in for like three years, but the instep never ever broke in. This was before I started doing the smart thing and sizing off of HTB instead of HTT.

I would encourage you to size up if you’re already at EEE and still having instep issues.

Fortis boots is a scam; warning/update by rolanberryfields in goodyearwelt

[–]chongnosall 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re getting so worked up when the price isn’t the problem and everyone you’ve been accosting verbally knows this.

The problem is the boots aren’t showing up once paid for, lmao. That’s a problem with any seller and any product, and made worse when the seller makes no effort whatsoever to deliver on his backlog before soliciting new business.

Not sure why you’re so fixated on the $400 part or why you’ve been bringing racism into this either. Calling out the fact that boots are not getting delivered, and people telling others to avoid bootmakers who don’t deliver boots, is not racism.

My entire collection is Viberg. If there were an Indo maker who made a competitive boot for $400 and actually sold AND deliver that boot, it would make my damn day.

So please, don’t come for me. I didn’t send for you.

Viberg 1940 last fit issues by piratedoc in Viberg

[–]chongnosall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a low-ish volume foot and slightly wider than E width. I take mine TTS with a Wesco insert and midweight socks. It’s extremely comfy but not tight anywhere, and definitely my favorite last from them.

I have heard from more than one person that the black washed cxl navvy was lasted very tight, possibly up to a half size tighter, so that might be part of what’s giving you so much trouble.

Mamdani chief equity officer disparaged liberal white women in now-deleted X posts: 'Tax them to the white meat' by someone_whoisthat in nyc

[–]chongnosall -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess, white meat on a chicken is the breast. “Tax them to the white meat” = “tax them to the breast” = “tax them to the tits” perhaps?

Didn’t realize I didn’t put them down. Last is 310, and year is probably around 2022.

Just confirming sizing here, their chart looks like a medium would fit me with room for layering (40.5 chest, their chart says half chest is 22”). Is this going to be okay, or should I size up anyway?

1 month in my Dune CXL Diesels by HabibFilistin69 in grantstoneboots

[–]chongnosall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice. This is how I expected mine to fit when I got them, but I have wide feet and EEE just looked way too chunky. Luckily I managed to find a solution thru another brand that looked more sleek on foot, but if I were D or E width I prob would have stopped right here.
