Offical TRICKERS shoes and boots thread

British Shoe Company has them in size 7, 8 and 11 at £180.

And Alvin 7,8,9 and 11 at £150.

And a few other models on sale.

I think we both did the same Google search. I found a few kudu suede Woodstock on crepe sole for £170 on my travels. I must say, I am enjoying the pair I have.

You're up late

It’ll teach me to drink that red bull so late in the day. Fortunately I don’t have to be up early. :-/

Just found them too. Unfortunately no half sizes.

The suede kudu shoes are quite loose fitting. A size 8 suede Woodstock is a slightly looser fit than a size 8 calf Woodstock. Might be worth a punt on half size down.

That 11 is tempting but so is a Burberry scarf. If that boot was anything but blue I’d think I’d get it (unless someone has one to display here). Just personally like a heavy contrast between blue jeans and boots. Although, for £180 it’s a great price

I was also briefly tempted by them. I think they would look ok with cuffed dark denim but not otherwise. I don’t cuff my denim personally.

Great price though!

Burberry scarves must be pricey! Not surprising I suppose.

Yeah I agree and black jeans. Scarfs basically the price of a full price Trickers boot unfortunately. I’ll keep an eye on those boots though, might go cheaper if it’s not popular, I doubt it but there’s a chance. The colour wouldn’t be an issue then haha

They should have considered half sizes. Many people are looking for better fitting.

They should have considered half sizes.

In 2009, a team of Swedish epidemiologists conducted a study into the relationship between men's shoe size and length of life.

Here are the results:

Size 5 – a life expectancy of 63-66
Size 6 – 64-69
Size 7 – 66-69
Size 8 – 67-72
Size 9 – 72-75
Size 10 – 73-77
Size 11 – 75-82
Size 12 – 74-79
Size 13 – 67-72
Size 14 – 66-69

So at what age will you be popping your clogs?

if i'm a US 12 in most sneakers, would a UK 10 suffice in the ilkley as i understand the last is generous? if it makes a difference i live in australia so will be mostly wearing thinner cotton socks as opposed to thick wool.

unfortunately i don't really own anything comparable: the closet thing would be some red wing postmans which collect dust because they're too narrow.

Generally speaking Goodyear welted shoes are a full size smaller than your sneaker size.. some times one and a half size as well. But full 2 sizes less is less common

Hello I am planning buying a pair of James loafers in the last W2298 fit 5; I own a pair of Stow in the 4497S last, fit 5 in UK 10.5 size. Since I live in Peru is impossible to return them, so I will apprecite if some fellow member could help me with sizing. I use Loake 10.5 in Capital last and Church's 10.5 in 173 last, should I size down? Thank you on advance.

Probably. I wear 11US in New Balance and Nike. I take a 9UK in 4444 and can still wear thick socks.

UK 9 in Trickers is US 9.5 .. so that’s roughly 1.5 size down from ur sneaker size ..
