Third pair of origins. Had the coronados and work boots on the hybrid stitch down. Whatever changes were made with the fit and the Goodyear welt have helped a ton with comfortability. And now the heel is wide enough to fit a powerstep insole into which didn't work well in previous gens. However I'm not a fan of the lining, while comfortable, not an ideal setup for a work boot. Imo should have kept the partial leather lining from previous boots because this boot has zero stiffness or rigidity to it, feels and flexes like a tennis shoe, which for some might be a good thing. But if you kick anything or drop anything on your foot, you're gonna feel it. Also the tongues need work still, they need to be centered in the boot not off to the side, and wider. The tongue stitching(appears just decorative ) has been ripped by the speed hooks and sometimes the laces will dig into my shins since the tongue slides so far off to the side.
I think in the future origin should make a heavier duty version with leather lining and a leather foot bed/insole with a slightly higher arch and still have room for a removable foam insole. That would be a top tier work boot. And obviously I would be happy to pay more for it. Just food for thought.

These are my thrid pair of Origin boots and I would have to say by far the most comfortable Boots I’ve ever worn. Sole is the best ive worn for working on steel ships and on concrete shop floors. Have had both the 6” and 8” and the 6” definitely suits summer better. Highly recommend for anyone that works on their feet all day. ~SY

I normally wear a size 9.5-10 in boots. I ordered a size 10.5 using their measuring chart as it should be the perfect length.
I chose regular width as the description said it had a wide toe box, I found this to be untrue on these particular boots.
The stitching on these boots was also uneven on the toe.
Nothing in this order came true to size, will be sending them back for an exchange to a larger size and
width. The only size shoe I have ever worn an 11 in is a Nike.
With all that said I do believe these to be good quality boots and I am willing to try again.

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback regarding our THE WILTON 6" GOODYEAR WELTED BOOT - ALPHA SOLE.
While we're pleased that you recognize the quality of our boots and are willing to give them another try, we are truly disappointed to learn about the sizing challenges you encountered. The discrepancy between our size chart recommendations and your actual experience, particularly regarding the toe box width and overall fit, clearly fell short of providing the comfort you rightfully expected.
Your detailed observations about the sizing inconsistencies and uneven toe stitching provide invaluable insight that will help us review both our sizing guide accuracy and quality control processes. We especially appreciate your balanced approach in sharing these concerns while maintaining confidence in our product quality.

They are comfortable boots, but I have not wore them for a long time. When I put my foot in it seems that the boot is thinner at the toe, so the corner of the toe hits the side. Other than that, I will wear them for a while and see how it goes. I think the construction is solid and very well made.
