I'm near SF. Last time I went to the archive they didn't have Guidis in my size. Going there again this weekend, fingers crossed. They have a few 45s, and this - http://archivesf.com/archivesf_item/guidi-994-ankle-boot/ - in 46 (although looking at the pics its not exactly what I'm looking for). Hopefully I'll find one that fits.

And yes, I've noticed that these Japanese brands aren't very friendly to people with bigger feet, unfortunately. I absolutely love the look of the Attachment boots, but it wasn't meant to be. Anyway, thanks for the help, I'll check out the brands you and the others mentioned.


i fear a 46 may be too snug for you, i am an exact 11 and fit into either 45.5/46 in guide, lmk how it goes. I also feel your pain on the japanese brands :censored:

Those are really nice I actually saw them in store and I really liked them and look to be versatile in brown/grey color. For those Guidi you'd need a 47 probably a 46 might be possible.

fml. Hopefully the 46s work..

Attachment goes up to size 44 and runs big ... but you'd have to pre-order it probably, since no Japanese store is going to buy a 44.

Do you know where I can pre-order them?

Thing is Guidi has hundreds of color codes and also in a variety of leathers so just make sure your certain of what leather/color code you want.

Hmm I didn't know that. I'm not too knowledgeable about the different leathers. The ones I'm looking at are labelled Donkey Full Grain. Do you have any tips about leathers?

He said he's willing to go up more and wants really high quality ... so I think it's worth exploring.

IS == Individual Sentiments? I'll check them out.

yea so hide-m has their stuff and so does sartorialoft la but its pricey. I highly recommend exploring a1923, attachment, ma+. I liked the attachment work boot and IS lace ups the most this season.

CCP definitely makes your size but i thought you want a lace up boot which i havent seen from them and Obscur but again no lace up.
