R. Watson Men's Size Guide
R. Watson Men's
R. Watson runs about a half size large.
Their own words: “Most people will drop down a half of a size in our brand.” If you normally wear a 10 in another western boot, start with a 9½ here.
Measure your foot from heel to toe and compare to the chart below.

Most R. Watson men's boots are stocked in both D and EE. If you wear a wide in other brands, order the EE.
How a pair should feel
R. Watson's own fitting checks, in their words:
- The pop. “When you pull the boots on for the first time, you give them a little tug. If you don't feel and hear a ‘pop’ noise when putting them on, there's a good chance they may be too big.”
- The ball of your foot “should sit exactly in the widest part of the sole.”
- Across the instep, it should feel like “a firm handshake.”
- At the heel, “your heel should feel lifted in the back of the boot when walking. Up to half an inch of slippage is okay.”
