Cool Shoes, Paraphernalia & Desiderata - Page 286  

These will fit a 9D normally, though they do run a little big; so a 9.5D may fit them as well. I own these and wear my true US size.

I find those to be very clunky, unappealing shoes (although I don't doubt dkzzzz's evaluation of their quality). I'm very surprised to see the 360 degree welt on them (actually a storm welt), as I wouldn't have thought that an Italian cordwainer would produce something like that, leaving it instead for the clunkmeisters like Allen-Edmonds.

ah, wrong c&j 337 shoe.

i would the polos on that particular last fit true to size.

I'm 9.5D US, but I comfortably wear 8.5E UK in the 337. Because these are made for Polo and only sized for the US, I'm not sure exactly how they run. I probably should go to the Polo store in BH and try some shoes on (EG too) so I know my size.

i wear a 9.5E UK in the 337, and a 10.5D in the polo chawner (which should be the same last as the tellman) and a 10/10.5D in the RLPL shoes by EG in the 89 last (95% on the EG last). All "fit" roughly the same, although I find the EG's more comfortable.

I posted a question on this a couple of days ago. But it seems to be relevant here. Can anyone tell me whether the RLPL shoes have the same kind of size designation as EGs? What I mean is this: On EGs, there is an oval in the inside that (with mine) says 9/9 1/2, which means 9 UK, 9 1/2 US. Now, do the RLPL shoes made by EG have this same oval and double size designation, or do they have only one size indicated, the US size?

my rlpl's have the a 10/10.5D on them. UK and US sizes.

They are the same on both EG branded shoes and RLPL branded shoes.

Edging ever closer to my siZe.

Several pairs of casual Kiton loafers on ebay right now, they appear new.

There goes the shoe budget!

Nice deal for a size 13:

The shoes might look a bit "˜Plain Jane', but they are actually Lattanzi and they might be shell cordovan as well.
That design with leather soles was in shell, color "˜Ravello'; don't know about the rubber soled ones.

Anyhow, I pointed the item out to one of the august members of this forum here, and he snapped them up with his buying account. Watch out for "˜Very Rare Lattanzi' in a cinema near you.
