I'd be in for a chelsea on the Soller last in snuff or dark brown suede for sure.

Nice makeup, gents. It'll be a stunner.

I'm telling you, navy or purple elastic color with the grey suede! (I am really digging that grey NST that keeps getting posted, too)

PSA:

If anyone bought the last size 7.5UK Austerity brogue in tobacco and changes his mind, please PM me.

Thanks. I think it is going to get a lot of use (although I always say that to myself to justify another shoe purchase)

I think navy given the blueish tone to the suede would look great or charcoal. Purple is probably a bit too bright for my tastes.

Do you feel this is a makeup that can be worn with denim?

Also, does the MTO require full payment upfront?

I'm getting intrigued...

Any sizing advice available for the Chelsea's? Does anybody already own a pair?

I have purchased a chelsea before in black calf on the Simpson last and I found taking my regular oxford size (9.5) was a mistake. The shoe felt way too roomy in the instep and I couldn't wear them comfortably without my foot sliding all over the place inside.

Anybody else go through this? I'm wondering if a 9 would have been the correct order. Which also makes me curious as to the accommodation with other lasts such as rain and Soller. I imagine these would fit even larger and I would definitely need to go down a half size from my regular.

Call me crazy, but has anybody else experienced this?

MTO requires 50% payment upon order and the remaining 50% when it's ready to be dispatched.

I've never owned a Chelsea boot. Would I size the same 7.5UK I wear in Oscar? Or go half size down and expect the boot to expand due to the elastic?

I think we're the same size. (8D Barrie)
