Are Polo RL soes sized like C&J

[jtoddaz]

I just read that a portion of the RL shoes are made by C&J. So for the ones that are, for the sizing, are they rebranded with US sizing, or is that British C&J sizing?
Thanks

They are sold in US sizes which are generally labeled one larger than their british counterpart (i.e. 9.5E UK = 10.5 D US)

It's a half size difference.

Maybe it's somewhere in between? I have the audley UK 8E and ordered the PRL Benton aka Belgrave US 8.5D. I would say the audley was 2 mm longer length wise than the Benton. The Benton fits tighter than the audley. On the other hand, I believe a US 9D Benton might be too large.

It obviously can't be "something in between" 1/2 and 1 size. It's either one or the other.

I used to think it was 1/2. Lately I've been thinking it is 1. Not sure either way.

I agree.

I wear a UK 9.5

And buy a 10 in RL or in BB Peals.

The RL EG definitely follow EG 9.5/10 UK/US sizing.

My Polo Herend/Aintree is labeled 8.5E UK and 9D US.

RLPL EGs aren't in doubt really. From what they are labeled and from my own experience, they fit true to US size, and EG has always done the 1/2 size thing.

The CJs are the unknown...

 

[Baron]

The Herend/Aintree is C&J

 

[Tarmac]

Ah... interesting.

I did notice the Polo Bentons were labeled half size difference. Since I always convert 1 full size UK/US, I ordered my regular US size in these and ignored their half size conversion. I seem to recall that in older threads/posts, members had reported that C&J made Polo shoes fit true to their labeled US size.

I got the Herends in 9D/8.5E. All of my other C&J are 8.5E UK or 9E and the Herends fit very much like my 348 lasted shoes in 8.5E.

then again, EU43 usually equals a US10

I'm going to lob a grenade into this thread and postulate that not only is C&J for RL marked up one full size, it is actually a narrower width.

So a RL 10D = C&J 9D, not 9E, as you would otherwise assume.

Just my theory.
