Those Trickers are pretty nice....I'll have to see what kind of deals I can find. Only problem is I don't know what the fit is like.

As long as you got the width right you should be fine. The AE 5 last runs TTS length-wise IMO, but some people find it to run a little narrow.

Personally, with their 5 last I've found it runs true to size in the width and I actually have to size down 1/2 size in length .

Great, thanks to you I'm about to pull the trigger on my own pair... Thanks

Nice. I got mine in dark brown, but I've tried on the Strand in Walnut. They had me at hello . . .
