Cool, thanks. I'm a solid US 11, and while my CPs at 44 aren't snug, they don't seem too big either. Going down to a 43 would definitely be the wrong size. I'm an 11.5 in Nikes, so my foot seems to be slightly bigger than yours. Perhaps a better fit would come with a half size down in the CPs, which aren't available. Given all that, I'll try the Butteros in a 44 - should offer a nice snugger fit. Thanks for the point of comparison bro.


No problem. I feel that a shoe to shoe comparison is best, since different people have different preferences in fit. For example, you like a snug fit, whereas I get slightly foot claustrophobic if I don't have a bit of room in the toe for me to move them around comfortably.

Funny you say that. Seems like most of SF prefer snug shoes. I'll see pictures in shoe threads where someone gets lambasted for a shoe that is "too big" because there is a slight gap between the heel and the cup of the shoe. I'm more like you and prefer the fit to be looser, but I'm cool with snug so long as its the right size. Not all shoes fit the same, even in the same style. I got some Vintage Low CPs in suede that feel stiffer than the regular leather, and therefore tighter. I imagine that's what the Butteros will feel like.

What he said. And I see plenty of pictures of balmorals with the laces splayed w-i-d-e open that pass without comment. A bit loose works a lot better than a bit snug for me - particularly since my feet don't shrink over the course of the day, they swell slighty.

I really like that collar, it's a nice cross between a button neck and polo style collar.
