Found these on ebay. Seller states they are a UK 8 but since it says 8 D on the inside it looks like US sizing to me.
Can anyone confirm? I have never seen a UK D width before, which must be very narrow?

I have bought all of my AS in UK sizes through AFPOS. But, I did buy a pair of Brooks Brothers Peal and Co., made by AS. It still had the hand written sizing/last and model information. Honestly that's how I knew they were AS and not C&J, Church's, or Loake - I think all of them used to make for BB Peal and Co. Only EG used to be separately listed as the original brand and not rebranded as Peal and Co. I have never seen a pair of AS without hand written information.
I'm pretty sure this will be US 8D, which should translate to UK 7.5F.I don't doubt these are AS (last 87 is printed also), it's just that I'm not sure if this pair is US or UK sized.
They used to print the model information like this by the way, before the exclusive and handgrade range. I have a few older pairs which have that also.
Have you considered crepe? I have a pair (AS for BB chukkas) and they're supper comfortable. Almost the same as running shoes.
So pleased to hear this news. I was v. upset at the possibility that Sargent was going. They must modernize the business strategy, with web sales, and communicate more as the Sargent name, as has been said previously. But I always found that Sargent shoes are really nicely made, at a middling price.Good news from Pediwear: https://www.pediwear.co.uk/newsitem/paul-sargent-shoes.php
