Hi everyone, I am newbie to the forum and was looking for help. I am thinking about ordering the G&G deco cooper. Now I don't know my size in G&G and you can't find them where I live. My options is to contact them and try and figure it out or wait until June when I am back in Toronto and order through Leatherfoot?
Considering that is a significant investment does any one have opinion on that? Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers

They are very true to UK size, if you are consistent through the manufacturers or know some size differences between lasts. I`d contact Nick, and order through him. He gives fine advice. Bespoke England is the way to go...

Kopped the 9.5 Canterburys! Thanks for the heads up!

Are Leatherfoot's G&G sizing in UK or US?

Edit: Nevermind, I can't read.

St. James II in Vintage Cherry from Skoaktiebolaget. Also got Red Burgol polish and travel shoe trees which are really light and pretty solid fit

Grail shoe alert!

That shoe looks good even in the MH71 last (which is think is the one Skaoktiebolaget carries)...

congrats stevent. i agree i like the mh71 over tg73. makes for a better balanced and proportioned looking shoe imo

You know, i use to think that it was an angular model that complimented the TG73. Looking at it again, it has some nice curves in the broguing that lend themselves well to the slightly rounded MH71. I would love either version though...
