I just picked up a pair of tan suede sperry topsider chukkas for $38 (which i thought was a good deal)
they have a few other unusual styles and all are fairly cheap.
they're also selling a bunch of mosley tribes including the Enforcers people often mention.

I posted in the gilt thread, but these fit atleast a half to a full size small. I am a 12, have 12s, and they are tight. I bought 13s.

I sized up a half size in these, but regular sperry's are TTS. Good point, Teger.

not at all.. pretty generous actually. My true foot size is more of an 11.5 semi E and the 12Ds fit very well (after breaking in)

Teger thanks!..IC, my true size is 8.5 E. Would you suggest a 9 (regular sperry's)? And in the Chukka's I'll definately get a 9.5.

I think a 9 would be fine. They stretch a lot too and you shouldn't really be wearing them with socks. Breaking in period wasn't that hard... now my Quoddy canoe mocs.. those are laying on the pain
