    After some Saphir advice for anyone who’s got Russian grain I managed to pick up a pair of Radnor 4 over the summer and wondering what’s the best Saphir colour for it - any recommendations gratefully received

    Disclaimer - I have 6 boots with Dainite plus a few shoes, it’s my favourite sole I personally think the reasoning is to do with aesthetics- I think the profile of a Dainite soled boot is aesthetically more pleasing than that of a Commando, Vibram or Ridgeway. In the photos on the C&J site, I...

    Agree not hugely inspiring, but interesting approach with the lighter boots. I do like the look of the Kelso from a first review, looks a little bit different to usual C&J fare. I think the roughout could look interesting after some decent wear (although if it got too light, I agree it could be...

    I passed, the boot would just not work for me either at my usual size or half a size down. My heel is marginally on the narrow side, but it’s never been an issue on other 348 shoes I have. It is a great looking boot, but it doesn’t fit like a typical 348

    A previous response from me…. I would strongly recommend trying the Camberley on before buying, it doesn’t fit like any other 348 in my experience (& I’ve got 5 different styles on the 348, it’s the best fitting last for me). FYI i take the same size in 348, 341 and 325 I tried the Camberley...

    If this isn’t a joke & you actually do this I will report both you & the cobbler to The Hague. You should only be permitted to wear Crocs for the rest of your days.

    And consider the Highbury as well if you want a Derby on 348 (the comfiest shoe I own)

    i have the Norwich in black, I really like it (but I’m a big fan of the 348 last so somewhat biased). i use dark brown saphir for my brown Hallam

    I can’t speak for their international shipping costs, but the Tannery in the UK are good value & have occasional sales (I’ve picked up a few pairs from them over the years). Always get fast free delivery (buying in the UK) and very good service from them

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    I have the Chiltern and it is a bit heavy for a suit. Would also recommend you try before buying, as you will see numerous times if you search, it is an odd fit & not for everyone. I haven’t tried the Upton, but it does look more suited to a more casual style suit by having the city sole &...

    Kinda torn on these. I feel like they’re wearing perfectly for what I do, but at the same time part of me wants them to i think there is a psychological hurdle to get over with rough out suede. I’ve got numerous C&J shoes & boot in calf leather which look as good after 5 or 6 years of wear...

    just to add to the confusion I do have the same issue with my C&J Skye 3 - there is more leather around the ankle so it does overlap compared to the Islay and Coniston

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    if one pair or jeans can make £2.5k+ worth of C&J boots look bad, I think the problem is the jeans. Unless you’re starring in a remake of Shawshank Redemption, maybe C&J aren’t the best match for the workwear look

    What type of shoe are you looking for? For me personally (& just based on my foot shape) I found the 348 most similar to the capital - have had an Oxford and monk shoe on both lasts, taking the same size for C&J and loake

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    they are relatively close to the Coniston for my foot (I take the same size in both), both good roomy lasts for me personally, although I should add that I find the 325 doesn’t work for me in shoe or loafer (too big in my usual size, and sizing down a half is too small)

    ** Quintessential Crockett & Jones Thread ** (reviews, quality, etc...)

    It’s been over 2 years since my last C&J purchase (my wife thought 13 pairs was more than enough) but I’ve finally gone back in with the Molton and I love these! I’m a big fan of C&J chukkas (& owner of a few) and had toyed with the Brecon, but for a more casual but still stylish looking boot...

    That looks a bit like the 325
