Thursday Boot Company: Diplomat Wide Fit vs Standard
The Boots: www.thursdayboots.com
I have had a tough time sizing the Diplomats from Thursday Boot Company. I have a wider foot, 9E/EE Brannock, and the 9 standard width seems to be the best fit for me. The 8.5 Wide is still too snug with pressure on my pinky toe and inside ball of my foot. Let me know if you've got any questions!

Beautiful jacket mate
Looks cheaply made
I’d like to see an update on this jacket. How has it held up. What’s it look like now?
Looks pretty much the same but has held up super well!
It looks like the big difference is in height, giving it more leather on the side to be able to push out once it breaks in. Try stepping on the toe box of the boot to flatten it out, making it wider. I do that sometimes just to hurry up the process.
I couldn't get the Diplomats with the Wedge sole to work for me, they're too narrow for me. However the Lug Sole Diplomats work grat for me in my sneaker size. I feel like my feet are similarly sized to yours. I may try the Heros.
@@Mr_Ja3 that’s good to know, thanks!
@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch The Lug sole Diplomat uses a different last, the release notes say it called the "Challenger Moc toe." The Hero uses the Challenger last... Maybe this is why it fits better... 😅
@ oh man that would be perfect!
I made the mistake o' follow their Half Size DOWN and regretted e'er since. Shoulda gone AT LEAST Half Size UP, as w' most their models, apparently.
I have yet t' figure out what these boots are perfect for exactly, too. I mean, they're neigh really dressy, but e'en the correct size ones [if any] are still neigh quite the price or style for WORK boots, and the outsole is meh for hiking, so...
@@Highland_Paddy I think they’re just a casual boot. I like the look of them but I’ve never had much luck hiking with a wedge sole
When making love to the jacket's sleeve, is the leather soft and supple or firm and harsh?
When it’s inside out or right side out?
@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch both
The used shorts w short arms is probably from being washed in warm water or dried using heat
Look great! I may be in the minority, but I actually prefer it when the indigo bleeds off my denim and onto my shoes (as long as they arent dress shoes!). Gives them extra character! lol
I’m with you on that!
Really wish Thursday would have a warehouse in EU so I could buy one and not pay 1.5x the price for shipping. At that point I can buy a higher end boot.
@@Plague_Doc22 that would be great!
Hey thanks, I believe I would have even more reason to stay away from the Diplomat : )
@@88sstraight glad it helped! I’m bummed I can’t find a great fit in these because I love the overall look and design but that’s the way it goes sometimes
Heel stack is great. But once they have a gusseted tongue... then I shall get a pair
@hella.psychedelic6579 that’d be amazing
I can barely see any difference.
Hey buddy, I'm the guy who asked you about this very subject a week or two ago. I remember you said you might look into it further. Thanks for making this video 👍. So, a true-to-size standard width Diplomat is a bit snug on your pinky toe, but it basically works OK for you and is wearable. Going a half size down in a wide fit is (perhaps surprisingly?) a bit too snug on your forefoot. So, with all this in mind, you prefer the true-to-size standard width. And you thought about a true-to-size wide fit, but wonder if it would end up being too large all around the boot. I think I've got all that correct. Based on all your great info, it sounds like I should probably go with a true-to-size in standard width. I did exchange a few emails with Thursday, and they said that the Diplomat's last is a bit more narrow than some of their other boots, which might help to explain why the 8.5W was too snug on you. Thursday also said that the instep and heel of a wide size should be comparable to that of a standard width size. So, I guess I just need to decide whether to go with a standard width true-to-size or a wide TTS. Once I get a Brannock measurement, I'll be able to compare my foot's width to yours, and that will help me decide. Thanks for the great information, dude. Super helpful. 👍👍 Your channel is great. If I could subscribe twice, I would. Have a great day. 🤚
@@kit2770 yep, you’ve got that all right! I’ve been wearing the standard TTS all day and no blisters/discomfort. The half size down wide were way too tight!
I love them too. Beautiful to break in
would you say is ok to wear this in summer?
I wore mine on cooler nights but it is a warm shirt
Do a new v old timex ironman shock V timex ironman vintage
I love them the look the amazing. I got the same ones and it arrived today. I just find it too stiff and don’t know how to soften them. Also obviously to note I am extremely new to this raw denim scene and this is my first experience with a 22oz. I know wear will soften them but how long should I expect the discomfort to last.
@@asrarmerchant5428 it probably depends on how snug they are on you. If they’re looser, they’ll be comfortable sooner. You can also throw them through a cold cycle wash and hang to dry a handful of times to help get some of the stiffness out. Hope they’re feeling good soon!
If you're in the US there are no import fees at all, so this jacket becomes an incredible value.
@@tom23245 nice!
I have racks of Woolrich jackets & 20" is on the smallest end! I've had ones that were 17" which is tiny. I have a great deal of demand for 28, 29, 30" People were just smaller back in the fifties. At 1:20 the registered mark above the H in Woolrich, dates this tag to after 1967.
Thanks for that info!
For some reason that boot looks beautiful with wear on it like this pair
@@michaelgarza256 better with age!
I have been on the hunt for the perfect t-shirt for myself. Right now I'm set on the Dickies heavyweight pocket tshirts, as well as Carhartt. Your videos are super helpful though and I enjoy watching them. I actually just started this channel of my own partially because of your channel, lol. It's too hard to find reference photos of real people wearing their clothing vs models on a website where you dont know their dimensions and the photo is taken in a studio with perfect lighting. So anyways, just wanted to say thanks!
@@FindingFits awesome, just subscribed! Thanks a million for the kind words!
I live in small island name bengkalis, Indonesia.although we have tropical climate,here we have windy season and wool shirt is really usefull.a lot friend of mine didn't like wool because they think it will hot.but i always wear it as long as its not blazing hot.
@@ilmizarnanda I think it’s a great functional fabric 👍👍
Don’t waste your money on anything Thursday. Get you some RW or Truman’s or Parkhurst or really anything else and they will be a much better boot. These aren’t even remotely close to a PNW boot. Anything Thursday makes is something on par with Nordstrom rack, save your money and get something good, you can thank me later.
Can u recommend a moorby that is a good alternative to the new red wing beckman?
@@staydilatedTV I think the pair in this video (2801) is going to be the closest model to it
@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch would you say it's sleek enough for business/office casual, not suited and booted, but more like chino and OCBD
@ the rounded toe makes it a little harder to work for that kind of outfit. I’d look at the single E width boots that are exactly like these but with more of an almond shaped toe like the Moorby 2825 or 2845. They have more of a sleek profile in my opinion. I hope you are able to find something that works!
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatch thank you!!!!
That patina 🤌🏼
Better with age for sure!
What do you do for work? They look brand new
@@TyeWills they were still relatively new in this video. I work as a behaviour therapist during the school year and farm labour through spring/summer. These have seen some days on the farm but I have others that are much better suited for that kind of thing so these are mainly a casual/out and about kind of boot for me. Here’s a more recent update ua-cam.com/video/bRQIZrWswhk/v-deo.htmlsi=9VJC5Vooq2xJZRLJ Thanks for watching the videos!
Gustin recently started making a Vintage Straight fit for the 1968 denim which has a higher rise, so I’ll definitely be checking it out. The problem I’ve always had with Gustin is the lower rise of their fits, but hearing you say that they are still comfortable makes me want to try them out. Great video!
I’ll have to check those out!
Getting ready to pull the trigger on these as they have them marked down to $149. Little nervous though as I typically wear a Wide and since these aren’t offered in one I’m rolling the dice as I’ve never had a pair of Thursdays so I have no idea how they fit.
I usually wear wide in most boots as well. I typically wear an 8.5EE but these size 9 Standard width fit me well. I hope it works out for you cause that’s a great deal!
@ GREAT, thanks for the update on these!. I typically wear an 11EE in boots and a 11.5EE in shoes so I’ll go ahead and get them in the 11.5 then.
Have you noticed if these shrunk in length since you have had these for a year now?
No noticeable shrinkage! I have worn them quite a bit recently for a bunch of different occasions. They’re a super comfortable, versatile option 👍
@@mM-bo4pv here is a recent pic ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxldeK2AZUNqrTQOgWJf7Djr8Bbd6ctKa1?si=Slv4momwKhUGq1NN
@@bootsjeansandtheoddwatchthanks! Have you tried the athletic taper? I tried both the straight and slim but the slim hugged my calves too much. Also do you wear the pants below the waist like a Levi 511? And what is your inseam?
@ sorry I haven’t tried the athletic taper so I can’t help ya there
Any clue how these would size relative to my Redwing Iron Rangers?
It’s a tough call because they fit quite different but I think 1/2 size up from Red Wing, or true to your Brannock size.
I’m curious about the weight like if you are using it all day is it doable
For sure! It’s a hefty bag but still no problem to wear for extended periods.
Is this lamb skin?
Yep 👍
I’m tempted by an Acorn Stow as I have the Bourton in Marron Antique and it is my favorite shoe.
I had a tough time choosing between Acorn and Marron!
Color seems much darker than the website. Have you done any conditioning or added any oils to it?
@@liiontommy nope, and no filters/edits on the photos 👍
Awesome! I have a similar foot to yours. Since trying Altra sneakers, I hate going back to narrow toes. Have you reviewed the Thursday Legemd in Wide?
@@davepacino not yet but hopefully I’ll get a chance. I’m hoping to get Diplomats inside for a video next. I have tried the captains in wide and they were too wide in the heel for me. These Hero boots have been amazing, I love wearing them!
So helpful 👏🏼thank youuuu
Happy to do it!
Worst customer service & overpriced product. Do not buy! Rest is up to you.
Sorry you’ve had a bad experience!
Just a note there prices are in USD not CAN$. I also have lots of N&F jeans but it should be noted that the exchange rate comes into play. 🇨🇦🤘
