Siiigh, well I impulse bought this on EBay because the deal was too good to pass up

7.5 E, should fit size 8ers comfortably. I'm between an 8 and 8.5 so this just fits ok. But not as well as I'd like. I have wiiiide feet though. I like things to click as soon as I put them on, and these just didn't do it for me. Wish I didn't have to this, but I wanna put the cash towards something else. They're new and I just tried them on. They've only been worn for these pictures.

Anyhow, what I paid for. 360 shipped.

First off the one barely noticeable flaw with the boots (pic taken by original ebay seller):

Nice boots.

Do you think these would fit a narrow 8.5 foot?

Well an 8.5 D in Alden's Aberdeen last fits me perfectly, just a bit snug, but i like it. This 7.5 E fits me snugly as well, I think the Aberdeen is a pretty narrow last so I think it should fit.

I'm really selling this because I think I just like 4060's or something in the plaza last more pretty much. The style just isn't for me.

Are these black or the #8, hard to tell on my monitor. Also, would you mind posting some measurements please? I'm about a 8.5 narrow. Can you also describe the flaw in more detail? Thanks much.
