Anyone have or have heard of this leather? Seems almost like a pin grain.

Acorn York Cloud Museum Caviar

It’s is a pin grain. Church’s once used “Caviar” leather too.

And if anyone has any informartion about what leather is 'Cuero Boa Ventura Ansiao Hidro'? And 'Walnut Mountain Bear '?
Tricker's been using some wild funky leather that I wasn't aware of...
The waxy grainy finishing looks cool, it'd be great to know more, thanks in advance!

Both from their outlet website.

I don’t think the Mountain Bear leather is Mufflone. It looks waxy and Mufflone isn’t waxy. It’d be fun to write to Trickers and ask them what these leathers are

Trickers doesn’t care as long as they are all brown leathers. 🤣🤦🏽‍♂️

Wet weather here in the east of England. Fortunately I was wearing my Stows when the rain came down.

13187 Last, if it had a touch less taper at the pinky toe and a slightly tighter heel it would be perfect for me. Normally wear 9 or 9.5 EEE U.S. and 9 UK in trickers seems to work pretty well. No instep tightness at all which is a huge issue for me in shoes/boots and great closure; normally have a huge v-gap or separation at the laces. I can actually wear non-dress socks. Most of my GS boots I have to wear the thinnest socks I have.

Didn't get a chance for pics this morning it was raining hard. Fan of the deer skin as well, very soft and compliant.

Chestnut Stows. Wore them after a long stint with my Grant Stones and fell in love with the tank build all over again.

 

[Mr_Spud]

Have a question about the lining in my pair of chukkas. I seem to have worn through the inner lining at the point where my pinky toes rub against the lining. Has happened on both feet. What does this mean for the longevity of the shoe and do I need to consider reinforcing it just yet? I have walked a lot in them but cumulatively it amounts to around 6 - 9 months of wear give or take. For comparison, the suede upper shows no damage or tearing regardless of all the tramping I have done in this pair.

Tricker's James, from AFPOS

I am not a loafer guy (maybe because my left foot is shorter and thicker than the right one, so sizing can be tricky) but this model suits me perfectly.

Juan Manuel could you help me with sizing the James loafer?

I have a few Burton in size 9UK, this is slightly large in the toe and a little heel slip, but I like the "roominess" and can manage by lacing tightly. I also have the Henry Boot in 8,5UK that fits me a little tighter but still good, not too tight.

I hesitate with the loafer, I think I should go with 8,5UK because it cannot be laced tight. I have my eyes on a used pair in 8,5UK in suede, but have not pulled the triger because beeing 2nd hand I cannot return them. Thoughts?

Bourton 6UK fits me well, I have James in 6UK, which is a bit tight but can work out when stretched by use , and 6,5UK which is slightly big but wearable, no heel slip. Brands tend to suggest to not run too large with loafers.

Hello

Al my Tricker's (James, Stow, Leo, Aldo, Robert) are in 10.5UK. I read that the Burton is a tad large so some lads have to size down. In the Tricker's web site you can find a "size guide" that can help. Now, some people suggest having a snugger fit in loafers if you don't have a particularly high instep (which is my case).

I hope this helps.

@JUAN MANUEL and @Angel91 thank you for your help. I think I will wait until I find a nice offer for the loafer in size 9UK.
