    Herring Shoes made in Portugal?

    I'm looking to get a pair of chukkas and I'm considering the Herring Cannock in chestnut grain. It's Blake-stitched and made in Portugal. Anyone know who might be making them or can speak to their quality? I am comparing them against a pair of Meermin chukkas in dark brown country calf. Based on...

    Boots Boots Boots - For Boot Guys Only

    I'm looking to pick up a pair of chukkas and came across a pair by Rhodes on Huckberry. The shoes are blake stitched and made in Portugal. I can't find any information on the company so I'm guessing that it's a Huckberry in-house brand. Reviews on a few sites look positive but I'm hoping to hear...

    Velasca Shoes

    I went through this thread and I'm wondering if you guys still think Velasca is a good value. I'm considering the Velasca Artista ankle boots and the price is on par with Meermin's offerings. Based on the photos, I like the styling of the Velasca more but what concerns me is that the quality...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Thanks! I checked it out and based on my feet measurement, I should be able to fit into a 7.5UK. What!? Have people found this this tool to be accurate?

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Thanks for the response! That's a good question but unfortunately I don't have an answer. When I purchased it from an online retailer, there were no width options. I also just checked the invoice, box and shoes and I didn't see anything about the width. Am I missing something? If I had to...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Sorry in advance if I missed it in this enormous thread but I'm hoping to get some sizing help. I currently wear the following: Allen Edmonds 65: 9.5D US - Fits well. Allen Edmonds 511: 9.5D US - Fits very well. Carmina Rain: 8.5 UK - Too big. I bought it online and couldn't return it. I was...

    Semi-beater boots for under 250?

    Hey all, I'm looking to get a pair of semi-beater boots. By "semi-beater," I mean I plan to wear them regularly but perhaps more importantly, they will be my go-to pair of boots for clubs and bars, where they might get trampled on by drunk people. I am leaning toward chukkas or dress boots. I...

    The Official Carmina Sizing Thread

    Update on this. I ordered a pair in UK size 8.5. They feel good except that the heels seem a bit loose. I can fit my finger in the heels of the shoes with no resistance and my heels slightly lift when walking. For reference, there is also zero lace gap. Do you think moving down to a UK size 8...

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Holy cow. I've been debating Meermin versus Carmina wholecuts for my wedding shoes but stepping into this thread and reading all the complaints, I think I'm going to spend the extra money for Carmina.

    The Official Carmina Sizing Thread

    Hello! I'm considering ordering a pair of the wholecut oxfords. My other dress shoes are all Allen Edmonds (Park Ave, Strand, Mora 2.0, Dalton) in 9.5D. Can anyone please help with sizing recommendations? If you also know and can share sizing for the Meermin wholecuts and the C&J Alex, that...
