I have Globes and found they sized like my shoes. Only had 'em about seven months, but I'm loving them. More support than my Rangers, better on ice, and WAY warmer."I've met lots of volunteer firefighters, but I've never seen a volunteer fire!"

A few guys on the dept picked these up and had nothing but good things to say about them, so I went ahead and ordered some myself with the 10%/free S&H deal.
Just got them in and really like the fit, but they're my first pair of leathers and i'm not really sure if I should send them back and get a wide instead of a medium, whcih is what I typically wear. They fit a bit snug (on the sides) and don't slide around like my rubbers (which are a wide), but i'm not sure how much wider the wide's are (concerning leathers). $300 is alot for a pair of boots.
Do leathers stretch a bit when they begin to break in like traditional shoes/boots?

I have a pair of Thorogoods, and a pair of Lion Boots. I love them both. Great fit, great durability. No issues with either boot.
I don't have any experience with Globe other than trying them on, but they did fit damn nice."A fire department that writes off civilians faster than an express line of 6 reasons or less is not progressive, it's dangerous, because it's run by fear.

for all of you out there that are having issues with the pro warringtons on ice. my vollie house that i run at is in the middle of the mountains and usually anywhere from 3-6 feet of snow 6 months out of the year alot of us are using the pro warringtons and went down to the army navy store and bought a pair of yak traks for 10 bucks slip them on your boots and they are cheap enough that if you catch a fire call no biggy if you forget to take them off the rubber that holds them on is fairly thin and just a little heat will snap it so it wont burn on your boots. ( and yes we did experiment with this) just an ideaWe walk where the devil dances... FIR NA TINE
