Though I'm not sure if it's from the "Ankle Boot" category.

Like you my boots are a half size smaller than my normal shoes, I tried my normal size and they were definitely too big. I am wearing them at the moment and at that size they are very comfortable.

Although I can almost guarantee that you'd dislike my new style less, and I really need to stop coming to this forum since I realize I'm not going to find much acceptance here (and that's fine, we all have different tastes).

I used to find the B555 a bit pointy but I am beginning to like it more and more.

So drop down half a size or one measure of width from Craftsman?

I'd say definitely not. I have both in 10.5G and if anything the 555 is a slightly snugger fit.

It's marked as a 9D, so I guess it might be US sizing.

Tried on it feels like a UK 8E. Certainly narrower and carries less volume than a standard UK 8.5 E

I'm liking the 341 last more and more. Those are sleek and refined though not dainty.

Those are nice. I saw some at Saks which allows you to special order Weston now. Very tempting.

Why not? Those were one of the greatest scores of all time. I am still jealous, and it has been what, five years?

what are the major differences between the RM Williams Craftsman french veal calf vs. yearling?
is it just quality of leather?
the yearling seems to offer more color choices.
