C&J sizing question....337 vs. 348

[balaskonis]

Hey guys,

I sold a pair of Hallams here a couple of weeks ago b/c they were too big. I bought a 7E, and I guess I needed a 6.5E, as pathetic as that sounds.

Anyways, I think I'm going to go with the Audleys instead, but wanted to know if the 337 last is the same thing...should I go with 7E, or will it be big again and go with the 6.5E as they'll open up...

Lastly, does plal ship to the US anymore? If not, where's the best place for C&J nowadays?


Thanks
Paul

I'd like to piggyback on that question, if I may.

Do C&Js ever go on sale? I'm longing for a pair of Mertons, and they're exactly the same price on every retail site. Is one retailer worth watching more closely for C&J bargains than the others, or is watchful waiting just a waste of time?

Go with the 6.5 for the 337. The 337 is a more generously cut last than the 348, and if a sz7 348 is loose, you will be swimming in the sz7 337.

No, they do not sell C&J over the internet any more. Try pediwear.

+1. Also no point waiting for sales - buy what you want at pediwear and get used to it - you like good shoes and it's an expensive habit.
