I'm intrigued by the new Carrera models in "printed" suede. Is anyone familiar with sizing?

Does anybody have a pair of Quentin’s and Floyd’s?
Did you take same size in both?
I’m trying to figure out what size to get in the Quentin, I’m a 44 in the Floyd, 44 in CP, 12 in Nike etc

Anyone know if this is legit? They messed up the product names, but the price is right

Yep, legit, thanks for the heads up! Ordered the black floyd boots (mislabelled as Quentin, go by the pics and not the names) on Monday and they arrived today (Italy to UK), pretty pleased. Worth reading their fine print though, non EU peeps might get store credit rather than money if needing a refund on an order, think it’s based on discount. Great prices though, especially when taking off VAT for non EU customers.

If anyone has sizing questions for the Floyds, ask away (but think quite a few people here have a pair)

What was your sizing experience?

I had ordered a pair of Floyds in my Tanino size (one size down from brannock) and felt the boots were snug. They may have been the right size, but without having the benefit of trying a half size up, I could not be certain so I sent them back. Maybe they would have broken it, but I have a rule of thumb that if a pair of boots/shoes do not fit properly straight away, they will not get any better.

Yeah snug is what I’d say. Ordered my normal size for boots (Eu 43, take Eu 44 in Nike). I think if I had gone up a size they would have been fine for width but too long. They wouldn’t need to stretch much to be spot on, so I’ll keep them, but definitely thin socks only when wearing them

i have a pair of tanino lows in 41 and took a 41 in the side zips. agree with bry that the Floyds fit a bit snug at first but haven't had a real issue.

a quick note though, the floyds listed on the singalore site are the newer fully lined version, so fit could be a bit different.
