it probably will, the toebox is roomy on these boots

^Um... "dress shoe size" is a pretty meaningless phrase. Which dress shoes? I have dress shoes that are sized comparably to my sneakers, and others that... well, aren't. If you want to use the AE 5 last as a standard that would be more useful to people in determining whether to size down 1/2 or 1. Having tried on red wings in the past I would say 1/2 from 5 last, but I've never actually had to break in a pair nor worn them over a prolonged period.

this is wrong, your dress shoe size is the size you get on the measuring device, called a Brannock in the US. Go to nordstrom and get your dress shoe size.

Ok, on a Brannock I am a dead 10, but I wear a 9 in RW GT's. And yes, it is a roomy toe box... but you can't say dress shoe size as an accurate reference. I said 10 in Nike/Vans assuming most people have/do own a pair. That said, it is far more forgiving with a sneaker to be off a half size or so...

Here's cherry with apc...I wear 9.5 in Vans and my brannock measurement is 8.75 and I wear size 8 in GTs and could probably do 7.5, they are long in the toebox and heal. Size down 1 from dress shoes.

And, FWIW, I wear a 10.5 in AE Park Avenues and a 10 in the GT.
