I have a pair of GATS in size 270, brand new. Got them from Zeemon, but they're too small. They're up for grabs - $80 shipped CONUS.

Clark's DB
Nike Runners (specify Model plz)

LLBean Blucher Mocs

Got my GATs from Zeemon as well. I wear a US13 Sperry's and I got a 295. Fits perfect. Put the chucks natural 45" laces on them and they look fantastic!! Thanks Zeemon!

Shipping took 8 days to get to FL. Perfect!

Wore my GATs around Munich Germany. Was getting many weird looks... not sure if they thought I was a soldier or just liked the shoes..

I'm a US 9 in JP chucks, 9 in all my running shoes (sorry no Nikes), 9 in basically all my shoes. I have a wide foot however, and although 270 should be my GAT size I found the shoes too constricting (basically too narrow).

I wear a 275 in these and the fit is perfect and am a 9-9.5 in chuck taylors.
I wear a size 43 eu normally


I think we can conclude

9-9.5 in chucks perfectly equals to a 275 in these
