NBD Shackleton Cognac T55 Last, 10FF

These are a thing of beauty. The leather looks clean and has a surprising amount of pullup.

It's my first pair of engineer style boot, so I was kind of unsure on sizing as I often hear to size down compare to lace-ups. The toes feel perfectly comfortable, so I'm kind of glad I didn't size down in that regard.

There is some heel slip going on. I've read that this is typical for pull-ons and will break-in within a few months. In the meanwhile, should I get something like heel fillers since I definitely won't be able to run in these as of right now? Any other advice for those who went through the break-in process with these?

Munson or Fight last Sizing Help

My Brannock length is at 10.5, but widths have always been a issue for me. I've tried out Redwing Moctoes in 11E at the store, and they still felt cramped and painful to me. The boot that actually fit me well among the PNW brands is a Nicks with a munson last at 10FF.

With that in mind, it's still a bit hard to tell whether to go for a 10E or 10.5E in LJ boots for the Munson/Fight boots.

Any advice would be appreciated.
