My experience has been that C&J is a full size off. Thus, a 7.5UK should equate to a 8.5US. On my feet, this holds true for the 337, 348, 341 and 200.

I have 4 pair of C&J, and all are a full size down from US sizing. 2 pairs are just a touch large, but a half size larger would have been too much.

I don't disagree. The question is how do American sellers mark the conversion. For example, Peals at BB consider the 9.5 UK should be marked a 10 US. So, even though I am a 10.5 in made in the US Aldens and Allen Edmonds, I wear a US 10 in Peals.

The same holds true for C&J. I wear a 9.5 UK. The real question is what is the UK sizing of a C&J that Ben Silver calls a US 10? I have never bought a C&J marketed with an American size unless you count C&J made Peals. Then I went with the US 10 which was the same as the UK 9.5. The exact logic holds true with EG made RLPL.
