Boots made by Russell Moccasin Company -- experiences - Page 10

Catchh, really nice! Looks like standard chukkas in brown suede?

My RM boots (pics a couple pages back) have proven to be the most comfortable and all around versatile boots I've ever had. Built like a tank, with a good application of Obenauf's they're about as waterproof as I could have imagined, they stand up to rain and snow, feet don't overheat in them and the interior leather has just molded to the shape of my foot.

These are magnificent looking.  How did you size relative to other shoes?  Did you do the measurements or just specify a size?  Most people advise to size a half size down from TTS, right?

The 9 C inside isn't the sizing?  I was curious whether you provided them the measurements on the order sheet or just ordered a specified size.  I am trolling some ebay auctions for RMs and trying to hypothesize whether 8E sized RM boots will fit my 8.5E TTS feet.

Thanks for the clarification.  I'm going to request a copy your boots sometime soon :)
