I have a pair of the Buttero work boots that I picked up from Barney's awhile back.
Should I do anything to sole? If so any recommendations of places or can my local cobbler do the work?

gaahhhh love boots, do not know if i want vaz, ann, or focus on making my own for a few months and not think about it. I've been leaning towards the latter for a while, but...sales.... :(

Quick fit pic of the Guidi 995 reversed horse(?) boots from Farfetch. Been wearing them constantly the past 3 days and they are starting to stretch out to fit perfectly. Love em.

The length will not stretch, but the width should. At first I thought I went a size too small, but after wearing them every waking hour since I got them, they have started to mold nicely to my feet.

I am a 42 in sneakers (RO, MMM), and even a 41 in some boots (buttero, shoto). Got a 43 in Guidi and definitely could not have gone any smaller.....

Yeah I've read people say size up 2, but I think it really depends on the shoe/leather.

My thought on Guidi sizing is to size up one if you want a "leather-sock, toes near the end of the boot" feel and to size up two if you want a bit more room. I sized up one on my 995s and like the fit but I'd probably size up two on my next pair.
