Thanks for the help. Looking over Alan See's tumblr, it does appear to be Ring Jacket.

My sizing as follows: Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Alden Barrie: 10.5D or 10E, 10D on non boots is a little tight but could be doable, 10D on boots is too tight
Alden Grant: 10D on lwb, a bit tight by toes but good snug fit otherwise
Alden Modified: 10.5D a bit long but good fit otherwise
Alden Trubalance: 10.5D, good fit with slightly thicker socks
Allen Edmonds (5 and 7 lasts): 11D, never tried on wide but decent fit here
C&J 325 (RL Marlows): 10.5D ok fit
Grenson: 10E UK a bit long
Mark McNairy / Sanders: 9.5E UK
Meermin: Hiro last 10UK
Quoddy: 10D, super tight / painful for first few wears but after a while great sockless fit, pinky toes do poke out a bit though
To Boot NY: 11D kinda long
Trickers: 9.5 Fitting 5 UK
Yuketen 10E or 10.5D

Also how about sizing on the simpson for these:

I am a 9.5G in Church, and have a 9.5 F1/2 in St. Crispin's. Would a 10 in the Carmina Simpson last fit, or is that too big a jump wisth wise? Any advice would be appreciated!

tbh, if you can afford it, buy more St. Crispin's. they are from my country and it would make me proud.

fwiw & afaik the armoury carries St. Crispin's & Carmina, so they would be my first contact person instead of some strangers on the interwebz.

good luck

Thanks Fritzi. One thing I like to do is get information from as many sources, and get as many viewpoints as possible. Makes sense, n'est pas?

I did check the Armoury's site just now. Unless I totally missed it, they didn't have SCs.....

Besides, I think I've exceeded the budget for the year already!

alright, shoe fit is a very individual thing. much more like preferences in your clothing. two many cooks spoil the food, n'est pas?

St. Crispin's is posting on f.cebook and they're referencing several numbers of their special make ups to the armoury. anyway. btw, they are really special.

glad to hear your budget negotiation was successful.
