My DBs and Wolverines are both 11.5, with the Wolverines starting out a tad more snug then the DBs and eventually stretched out to be a perfect fit. 

I got my beeswax DBs on the way. Do you think they will pass for business casual shoes? Im really broke and cant afford another pair of shoes

chocolate (dark drown) suede  is the smartest & most versatile. My DBs are chocolate suede, they go with ligh and dark cords, slacks and jeans. However, sand ando ther light coloured DBs do not look at all good with khaki chinos or light coloured cords, it ends up looking too much like a uniform and too coordinated. Also the lighter ones in my opinion look too casual with dark slacks and suits.

Yes, in Europe, no problem, as long as they're dark Can't speak for the US.

I went a full size down from my normal size and they fit snug. After a little stretching they should be perfect.

Hey if anyone could help me with my dilemma, it would be much appreciated. I ordered 2 pairs of Clarks DBs from Eastbay, both size 9.5, in taupe and brown suede. However, upon receiving them, the brown suedes were noticeably bigger (by about a size) than the taupe (the taupe fitting me well). Is it normal for different colours/styles to be different sizes? Or have I been sent a faulty product? Note that both pairs are labelled as 9.5 on the shoes.
