Good Evening Sirs,

I am looking for a dress boot and had originally the AE Fifth Street in mind, but saw a lot of complaints about the uppers
pushing on the toes right where the cap ends.

Than I found this attractive "Holmes" and was wondering if anyone here owns it.
I couldn't find more info on here, but would like to know more about construction quality, wearing comfort and
sizing.

Thanks in advance, Gordon

How bizarre - I was just looking at that less than five minutes ago...

Dunno about how the boot will wear or sizing info, but it's made by Cheaney so should be well-built and sturdy enough for that kind of boot.

I was wondering what size and shoe trees I should order.
Or buy shoe trees here in US?

I usually wear a 10.5 D in AE Fairfax and Westgates.

Thanks.
