Very good but small
(2023-06-21)
It says these are in UK sizes, but I don't think they are. I take a UK 10 1/2, so I ordered size 11. The boots I received are nowhere near a UK 11, and are just a bit short on me, so I believe these are actually in US sizes. The leather is soft and will give enough for me to be able to wear them I hope comfortably, but ideally, I need the next size up. So buyer beware! On the plus side, they are strong, well made and should break in without any trouble. For the price, they are unbeatable!

Can not beat the best.
Narrow
(2023-02-20)
I wear a US 9.5W shoe/boot. As this size is not available, I ordered the UK size 9 (supposedly US 10 equal) but it is rather narrow and not at all like the roomy BRIT Ammo boots, BRIT Officers Ammo boots and French Mle 16's all of which are US 10's.
With these, however, a thin insole and thin socks still results in "Big toe" pressure both on the side and on the top of the toe. Barefoot and no insoles relieves the top pressure but not the side constriction.
It's almost like they are size 9 US instead of UK 9.
Construction is first rate though and they appear to be really well made.
I'm hesitant on ordering UK 10's as replacements if they are just as narrow.
Gave them a 4 for size issues but if you have "normal" feet, you should be ok.

Quality good.
New this crape rubber on a leather sole should make them last even longer.
Previous pair lasted 20 years.
Delivery fast.

The boots are amazingly comfortably right from the start, and look great. They came very quickly, with no hassles. Thanks!

I wear a US size 10, so I ordered the UK size 9, and they fit just fine. Nice construction, and they are comfortable right out of the box.

really comfy boots, good firm sole with soft suede leather. only hassle was I'm a size UK 8 and the boots delivered were too tight, Sent them back and replacement size 9 arrived and they are spot on. great service and the communication is excellent. only dropped from 5 to 4 star due to the size issue.
Great look, durable - industrial chukka boots
(2020-04-24)
So good I bought two pairs.
I waited a few months before posting a review to see how durable these boots were. They did not disappoint!
I've dyed both pairs. Tan and sandy beige respectively and they turned out great.
My usual UK size 9 (would be US 10) fits really well.
They have a unique look. Complimentary Comments from various people too.

Toe cap is a bit soft, but the sole is superb.

I wear a size 13 and these boots fit perfectly. my only complaint is that most of the metal eye holes are popping out of the leather. But I think the leather is thick enough that it should not be a problem.

These boots arrived in a very quick time-frame and they are of a much improved quality. Very happy
Terrific
(2017-10-06)
These boots are well constructed and made of quality materials. The soles and heels are extremely thick and tough, should last for years. Very well satisfied with these and all other purchases from WPG.

Tricky Sizing
(2016-12-02)
I'm not a reenactor or a collector of military gear. I'm just an office worker who injured his ankle last year and has had to switch over to boots.
These boots caught my eye because of their retro look. At $65.00 they are a steal and I highly recommend.
Pluses:
A) They look great - I got a lot of compliments at work. The grey color is very distinctive and attractive when combined with dockers or jeans.
B) No break in period due to the supple leather. Right out of the box they feel like a pair of boots you've owned for a year.
Cons:
A) The UK sizing combined with the fact that you need to leave room for inserts (the boots have no padding or arch support at all) can make ordering the right size a bit tricky.
In the end (after having to return the first pair) I bought a pair 1/2 size larger than my US size shoes - this left room for both my feet and the inserts. (I wear an 11 1/2 in US shoes and bought these boots in 12 UK).
Very happy with my purchase!

great boots, but...

The lace hole grommets are pulling out.
I'll likely take them to a cobbler though.

I have been wearing the boots for a week now and they are great and comfortable. Only issue has been an eylet that popped out but thats no big deal.

I have never been disappointed with product received from WPG & these boots were no exception...they are very comfortable with about 30 minutes break-in, very nice reproduction & lightning fast shipping...but then again what do you expect from the best!
Excellent Quality at a Bargain!

I was able to still get these amazing boots at the reduced price before they were all gone & am VERY pleased. I take a 11.5 in a Wide with so went with a simple 12 & there was basically no breaking in aside from some initial chafing on the right heel that was gone after a couple of wearings. The quality is simply amazing and I highly recommend them. Hopefully they will be restocked in the future.

Very quick shipment with these desert boots. I wear a US size 13 and the fit is right on the money. Supple suede uppers and a substantial sole enhance the appearance and comfort of this boot.

They are slightly too large, but a size 9 would be too small. My vast experience with the Quartermaster is he has two sizes of everything, too big and too small. I can work with big, but there is nothing to do with small. I will custom fit them like I have done with every boot I've ever owned. Wet 'em down and wear 'em until they dry. They will, in their life get wet, might as well get it over with. Overall, I really like them. The souls are the best part. The speed of shipping just boggles my mind, UAE to my little village in less than a week. This is the second product I've purchased from your company and I'm very satisfied with both.

Wet ''em down and wear them till they dry for a custom fit. The Quartermaster has two sizes for everything, too big & too small, I can work with too big. I really like the soles. Very hard core pair of shoes.

great boots, great price. sized a bit large. I added some very heavy insoles and they are still a bit loose. If you have wide feet these are the boots for you
Another top job

Also super fast delivery. It took about 3 days from the UAE. Thanks again!

Very pleased with price, quality and delivery time. But, a little too short - no sweat, I sold them to a friend at cost! I've always been pleased with WPG, and have referred a lot of people to them!
Nice boots but I returned them for size issues
(2011-03-27)
These are very well made boots, and soft, but overall they didn't fit. I wear a 9.5 and got 10s, but the ankle area was so big and I had a lot of room in my toe area. I sent them back and am expecting the new size shortly.

Another great product from WPG. When they first arrived thought they were too tight, as I have a 13 EEE foot. Stupidly, I did not pull out the light foam inserts! They now fit great. The light grey color was a little unsual, however, after I sealed them with a quality suede sealer they toned down just fine. So thanks to WPG, I now have a very nice set of very soft, excellent fitting, slightly darker (my preference) boots that Wajeed really went out of the way to ensure I was fitted well and happy. I am very happy to recommend, be sure to clarify your size carefully. These boots appear to be handmade, and have replaceable soles and heels if you still have a cobbler or shoe maker. Worth every penny of purchase and shipping. Very courteous and fast response. THANK YOU Wajeed! Dean
