Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

[seer]

I wear a size 10E in Yuketens and these boots fit me, but you seem to know more about Tricker sizing than I do, so I'll accept your decision.

Better safe than sorry.

Perhaps, you already have a lot of interest in the boots anyway.

I bought the STP Not-Stows in the same size as Stows.

They fit okay but I did think about exchanging them.

With the Stows I can wear a thick boot sock. With the STP Not-Stows, I can wear dress socks but the boots socks are uncomfortable.


 

Do you think if I take a UK9.5 in the Stows I should get a UK10 in the STP boot? Especially if I need to wear a heavier sock?

Definitely get a uk10.

Do you know anything more about the origin of the "Not-Stow"? What I mean is how is it that STP sells a version of Tricker's that doesn't exist elsewhere - or does it? Since they're an outlet store surely they wouldn't have some special make-up commissioned.

Richard posted a little info about them a while ago.
Doesn't explain the seemingly endless supply of something discontinued years ago though.

This Boot is the usual Stow 'pattern' but is made on the more regular fitting W2298 Last.
The W2298 Last was used for the long discontinued (3 years ago) Tricker's 'Corniche' collection. These models were 'Country Style', but regular fitting and Lighter weight. Most of them had Storm Welts, but Single Leather Soles. There were a couple of Commando Soled models that had a Leather Mid-Sole fitted.
You would also note that the boot is fiitted with a Flat Welt but the Sole Edge is kept to a fairly Wide Trim.
I personally wouldn't consider the bot to be 'sleek', but it definitely has a little more 'shape' in the Toe than the regular 4497s Last of the Stock Stow.
I like it ;-)

Thanks for the info, very interesting.

Definitely get a uk10.

Thanks zippyh

Can these boots be saved? Or are the scuffs on the toes to bad to get out?

I wouldn't bother, for that price...

That is what I was thinking.

Fantastic looking boots. Tempted to have a shoe version of this.

Thanks, guys. I ordered them MTO through The Shoe Healer after seeing rkusmant's pair of Stows in the same shell. If you look back through the thread you can see his; they're gorgeous.
