Chanel has a very limited and quite confidential Chanel homme mini-line. It is some of the ugliest shit known to man and should only be worn to terrify the enemy in times of total war. Not sure what is meant by "heritage", is it stuff like Atelier d'Artisan or YSL?

Orcival. Very similar to Saint James, have seen their stuff in some Japanese stores.

I was so close to getting those this winter, but got Trickers instead, figured they´d be more versatile... How did you size them btw?
Weird thing with Paraboot sizing is that the Michael comes in EU sizes (e.g 42,43), but the other models seems to come in uk-ish sizes (10,11). So far I havent figured out how to convert between them..

Bruno St. Hilaire does French country clothing. Probably a bit old-mannish for this forum though...

Based on recommendations I got my normal UK size, 8½. I had my doubts, as the measurements of the sole were both shorter and slimmer than the C&J shoes I was comparing them with. As it turned out they fit perfectly - as you can see in the pics the sole is very trim - and they are both lighter and more comfortable than I expected. Great boots, IMHO.
