nephew,
#8 nst are on the aberdeen last, highly recommend as long as the aberdeen last works for you feet

Aberdeen works well for me. However, I wanted to ask you what you thought of the Aberdeen NST boot. I am inches away from pulling the trigger on this boot, but I seem to remember someone on this thread a while back mentioning that the NST boot on aberdeen is very narrow and pointy. If I wear D width on aberdeen shoes, will I be ok with D width in the boot as well? Thoughts anyone? Thanks in advance...

Haven't seen a boot on Aberdeen. Have Aberdeen NST Shoes and find that if I size up 1/2 size in same width I am good and they are very comfortable. The Plaza NST Boot is the same 1/2 size up for me.

In regards to MrDv's question on jeans you may want to check out Gustin Denim they are crowd sourced and therefore very reasonable. They offer a large selection of denim. There is a thread here on them.

What are those wingtips? RL Darlton/Marlow? Man, they look great. The new ones I just got are more cigar with a greenish tint and I'm a little disappointed.
