Hello,

I just bought my 2nd pair of Whites boots. They are the Kato x Whites Chelsea C350 in 55 ArchEase Last.

I have one other pair of Whites with the 55 last. I ended up in a size 11. I normally wear a size 12 vans/nike sneaker.

For these Chelsea’s, I’m finding the 11 is very snug. Mainly in width, noticeable pressure on the side of my foot where my pinky toe is. I cannot really move or lift my pinky toes around.

I also ordered an 11.5 to try. On the 11.5, I can move my toes around better. It’s snug on the top of my foot and such but no pressure around my toes. To me that feels better, but I get more heel slip when I try walking. On the 11, I get pretty much zero heel slip.

I am wearing my thickest boot socks for all this (Darn Tough heaviest boot sock, like 4022 I think). I am leaning towards the 11.5 due to feet swelling with walking, but I keep hearing that with Chelsea’s you want them more snug than a typical new boot. I appreciate if anyone can chime in. Included photos of where my big toe and pinky toe is on the size 11.

Thanks for any help

Hello, I was getting ready for work this morning and found this roach. It had gotten its leg stuck in the seam of the vinyl flooring and flipped himself upside down. I flipped him over to take the pictures. He was moving pretty slow.

I live in the 2nd floor/top floor of a small condo building. He was right in my front entrance area by the front door. I have no kids, pets and do not leave food out, windows open or have any moisture issues. He was far from my bathroom.

Thinking he must’ve hitched a ride inside somehow, maybe in a grocery or gym bag or something.

Anyways, trying not to panic. I had to leave for work but planning to get some sticky traps at least on the way home to see if any others get caught overnight. I squished this one in a paper towel and threw it away outside in a garbage can on the sidewalk.
