Wesco Boss Engineer Boots

Big Black Boots has been selling boots since 1985 and online since 1995. We were the first boot store on the internet! But after 34 years we are retiring.

We've closed our web store. Boot orders still in process will be attended to, and we'll be busy getting those orders out to customers as they're completed. We're still here to support our loyal customers.

We're keeping the website up along with the order forms. These contain a lot of information which can help when you order directly from Wesco or Dehner. But the order forms no longer accept orders or payment info.

Our email address at

will be kept active so customers can contact us in the future.

Our customer lists and records will NOT be for sale.

Thanks for being such great customers over the years. It's been a pleasure helping you get into great boots that fit well.

Order Details for Stock Wesco Boss Engineer Boots

If you need more options or size choices, click here to go to the order form for custom boss engineer boots .

Before ordering these boots, please check your calf and heel measurements to ensure that you can get your legs into the boots. This check is required for the 16" boots. Although the top of the 11" boots have the same size as the calf on the 16" boot shafts, your calf circumference at the 11" height is normally not an issue but your heel could be.

Checking Your Calf & Heel Measurements:

Your calf is the large muscle in the lower leg below your knee. Wear the socks and jeans or breeches that you plan to wear tucked into the boots. Find the widest point on your lower leg and measure the circumference (distance around the leg with jeans or breeches) at that point.

Wesco Boot Size	Max Calf Size Inches	Max Calf Size Cm
7	14.75	37.5
8	15.00	38.1
9	15.25	38.7
10	15.60	39.7
11	15.90	40.3
12	16.10	41.0
13	16.75	42.5

You will need a measuring tape or you can use a piece of string then measure the length of the string with a ruler. Wrap the tape around the calf. The tape should be comfortably snug but not tight. If this calf measurement exceeds the measurement in the table for your size, the standard boot shafts will be too tight for your leg to fit into the boots. In that case, the stock boots will not fit and you will require custom Wesco boots. Go back to the Wesco Boss boot page. The custom boot info is just below the stock boots and there is a different order form for the custom boots.

The shafts of these boots will NOT stretch as they break in... so if the boots are too tight in the legs, your calf muscles will be cramped. However, competent boot repair shops can stretch these boot shafts if necessary. The point is that the shafts are stronger than your calf muscle so mechanical help is needed to stretch them.

The table below shows the maximum calf measurement for each size of stock Wesco boots in Inches and Centimeters. This is largest size calf which will comfortably fit in this size boot.

You should also check your heel measurement referring to the chart on the right below to see where to measure. If your heel measurement is larger than the max calf size for your boot size, your foot will be too large to fit into the boot.

Specially built for Big Black Boots on Wesco's traditional
#9109 last with the "bump" toe

The boot you chose:

Size:

U.S. Men's Sizes

( Larger range of sizes, widths and options available in the custom Boss Engineer boots )

Width:

Note: Wesco boots, like many boots, are designed to be worn with heavy boot socks. They are made slightly large to allow for this. So, if your feet measure US Men's size 9 ½ and you wear size 9 ½ dress shoes, then size 9 ½ Wesco boots, worn with heavy boot socks, will fit you correctly.

If your feet are size 12 or longer, the extra room built into the Wesco boots is proportionally less generous than it is in smaller sizes. You might consider ordering your boots a half size large to allow room for expansion of your feet.

About the Height of these boots

To determine where the top of the boot will be on your leg, measure 11" / 28 cm or 16" / 41 cm up from the heel of your stockinged feet along the back of your leg. This should be done while in a seated position with the knee bent at a 90 degree angle.

The initial height of Boss Engineer boots will be exactly as measured. e.g. if you order a 16" boot, it will come up 16" from your heel. They may even be slightly higher when new.

The 16" Boss boots will drop about 1" as they break in because of the flex in the ankle area. The 11" Boss boots will drop very little as they break in.

To convert from Centimeters to inches, divide the height in Centimeters by 2.54

Note: When ordering the 16" boots, please check your calf size to ensure that your legs will fit comfortably in the shaft of the boots. See the instructions on the Boss Engineer Boot page.

Big Black Boots is no longer taking orders. We have left most of our site up, including these order forms, because there is a lot of valuable information for customers who are interested in ordering boots direct from Wesco or Dehner. For instance, we have more detailed information about options than the manufacturer's website.

However, we have removed the ability to enter personal or payment information.
