Doesn't state what the Last is on the website and of course there is ZERO customer service during the weekend. And you wonder why Tricker's are struggling.
Yes, this really irks me as well. You look for something by size, then you dont know what last its on. (Eg. If it's a 4444 then you need to size down)

This is kind of stupid, but if you do a view source on the shoe in question it looks like there's a tag with the last.
"tags":["5402R","back_in_stock","boots","classic","country","Dainite","Dainite Rubber Sole-10.5","Dainite Rubber Sole-11","Dainite Rubber Sole-6","discontinued","ethan","men","monkey","sale","YCRF_footwear","YGroup_ethan"]

You can also just type the last id into the search bar then down select for your size.

Search for 5402R and all the Ethans are in the results.
I'm referring to the Outlet. This is what I get when I search 5402R:

No results for “5402R”​

On Trickers.com it's the usual Tricker's can't organise a p*ss up in a Brewery.
Do a search for 5402R and you get 4 x Ethans in Kudu – very nice looking Monkeys BTW.
But click on any one of them and under THE FIT it states they are made on 4497.

This worked. Thanks.

So how does the 5402R fit. My impression is it's a shallow toe-box?

Forgot to mention when it says “no results found for 5402r” click view results anyway because there are in fact results found.

Haven't bought any Tricker's in quite some time but was hoping to grab a pair. The Stow is now $800? Wild

Decided to pass on the Monkeys - just couldn't face having to pay for another return because of sizing or other issue. It appears that the ones on the Outlet are probably 5402R but you wouldn't know that without using Zippyh's View Source method. Do they stock Monkeys at Jermyn St.?

I don't think it's reasonable to expect a shoemaker to provide person-to-person customer service over the weekend. It's not like it's an urgent and emergency care unit.

Not sure also why Ike is so upset with the brand. Just don't buy them if you don't like it. Not sure how ranting on a forum helps.

Yes, I'm a fan and yes they can improve their online presence, but inform them or let your wallet speak for you. Otherwise things like which lasts are used are quite easy to figure out. It's weird they don't include it on their factory shop site, but most models were previously on the main site where the last is listed.

Are they struggling?
Maybe?

£700k loss in 2023 on £6m sales and £7m assets, and £1m in debt to pay in 2024 calendar year.

Grenson was similar sized sales.

Crockett on the other hand had £34m in sales and over £39m in assets. James Bond, and a serious retail push has been good to them?

Did C&J grow that much?

Ash made a video on Northampton brands. Indeed Tricker's aren't in a great spot, so I've been buying as much as I can. I doubt the 40-50% sales are helping them much though.
