So what boot tree brand do you guys use for your PS boots? Anywhere I can find them on discount?

I usually just use the Woodlore ones that can be found at your local Nordstrom rack. It costs around $14 each I believe? Or you can purchase them online.

Are you talking about just a regular split-toe shoe tree? Anyone use the ones specifically made for boot tree?

Wow, haha. It's weird because the Barrie last actually fits tighter on me. How can this be?

Just the regular split ones. I did a search for boot shoe trees and they don't look too different from the regular split ones.

I'm absolutely in love with the Cesar boot but because I want to order from overseas i'm nervous that they won't fit. I'm a 9 in Vans/Nike shoes but in dress shoes i'm roughly an 8. I was thinking about getting the 7UK in the Cesars and hoping for the best. Also, how do they age? I'm looking at the grey leather (not suede) and i'm hoping they age well as I want them to last a long time.

7 UK should fit you well if you're 8 US in dress shoes

Bought this brogue 'Chuck' this morning for $125.

Seems sturdy and well-made enough.

Shipping is $10 to the US, but expect sales tax if they have a store in your state.. CA gets dinged for a big 9.25%.

so if i am a US11, what size would i be in these Paul smith, i am still unclear... anyone?
