The Baker's russian calf is amazing. I finally started breaking mine in (the work boots on Oscar) and I get compliments every time.

Do you own any Roberts or Forrest and how is fit compared to Oscar? Also if not much ask Do you have toe shots? ( Reason I ask is you probably have boots of those )

Robert fits pretty similar to Oscar, imo

I would say that, compared to Oscar, Robert is a bit narrower in the toe, a bit higher instep, and maaaaaybe a slightly bigger heel. Robert has a slightly sculpted / pointed almond toe, while Oscar is a bit more rounded.
Forest is in between the two in most things, but a bit higher volume than Robert.

Robert on left, Oscar on right.

Forrest didn't fit that well for me. I'm in a 7.5UK on Oscar. To get my instep to fit I needed the 7.5EEE in Forrest. Forrest definitely felt narrower with a lower instep.
