    ALLEN EDMONDS APPRECIATION THREAD EDITION 2O22

    Thanks to all on the response to my AE Leeds sizing questions. I have a pair of Pembrokes so that is a useful reference. My guess of UK9E = US 9.5D seems slightly off. A US9.5E or even a US10D both seem like a better bet. I am going to have to bite the bullet and buy a pair.

    ALLEN EDMONDS APPRECIATION THREAD EDITION 2O22

    Thanks for taking the time. Was worried that D my be a little narrow and you confirm that. Your experience suggests that the US D fitting is a bit narrower than the UK E. Maybe I should go for a US E, given that shell isn't very stretchy or forgiving.

    ALLEN EDMONDS APPRECIATION THREAD EDITION 2O22

    Hi all Sorry for the rather dull request...sizing advice. I have read what I can but there is nothing better that getting the opinion of someone who might have some shoes in common with me. Firstly I am in the UK and nearly all my shoes and boots come from Northampton. I am looking to buy US...

    MTO just back. Glad I didn't go for the commando soles. Get your name down for these [size 9].

    Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

    I often think the same thing myself. My daughter may suit a 34mm or 36mm watch, but she would look daft in dad's old size 9 bovver boots. Anyway, hopefully be a good while yet. Especially as I am getting jabbed on Saturday!

    You are so right. It is more down to whether I suit the shoes, rather than whether they suit me.

    Size 9 cordo. Thumb still horizontal. I like them a lot but don't really get much wear.

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    Uniqlo! Was not expecting that. Very wise for sidestepping a denim obsession. I gave up on Levi's a few years back as they didn't seem to last 5 minutes (especially the pockets) any more. Heavyweight Edwin was a big upgrade but I could do with some that cost £35. Good stuff.

    Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

    So many boots. Surely one lifetime is not enough time to break them all in. I have had a huge cull over lockdown to force me to think what I really like. Limited myself to 12 pairs of shoes/boots and 6 watches. Problem is, it has filled up a Paypal account with wonga, which I now want to spend...

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    Very nice boots. But may I ask, what's the denim? It's selling the boots well. I'm stuck in a rut with my Edwin selvedge, which is nice, but I could do with a change.

    Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

    Now I don't normally send pictures of old shoes (unless they are new for the 'show & tell'), but I have given the new Allans a day off and the subject has shifted to C-shade. I love C-shade. It is fairly agricultural but I think it is quintessentially Trickers. It is thick and quality, and as...

    Thanks Crafty. On the strength of your recent colour help I went and bought myself some Gold MC Allans. Have not bought Trickers for a while as I had some QC issues from the outlet. These, however, are amazing. The leather is full thickness, soft and a very nicely finished. Been wearing everyday...

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    Your picture inspired me to buy some. But... No size 9 in stock for Rosewood 64! Looked elsewhere but no luck. Found some in Europe but the new VAT rules kill that. EG is quite expensive enough already thank you.

    Edward Green Appreciation: Pictures, Info, and Where to Buy

    These look phenom. Just perfect. Seriously considering a pair. I think the lightening on the wear points absolutely make the boot. The only thing I don't like is the burnishing EG do to the toe. If I would be seeking to lessen it or remove it (presume that can be done). Can I ask if these are...

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    Hi Crat. No intention to go wading in them, it's just when there is a stream or run-off crossing my path and I need to dash through it. Happens often and was always fine in the old boots until the toecap stitching starting to leak. The welt was fine. (Ironically, I have Gore-tex and Gore-tex...

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    Morning all. May I garner some opinion. I recently got rid of some very old Snowdon's and now need a new a new pair. As I have seen here before, I am not as impressed with the current wax hide as compared to the leather on my old boots (much looser grain, wrinkly and lighter colour). It changed...

    I agree. But I do thing grey is an awesome colour for suede, rough out or even pull up leathers. But not working for me on these. Then again, I dare say someone could find some killer strides to pair them with.

    I have decided there are too many pictures of pristine boots. Here are the MC I am wearing this morning. Mainly just mud but with a bit of chicken sh*t thrown in.
