Questions about an Edward Green Stuart's Choice

[Bob01]

Hey All,

Can you help me in Identify the model of these Edward Green Stuart's Choice shoes?

From the pics, I can make out 8102 - maybe indication of which last its based on?

7.5 is printed inside the shoe, the seller thinks its US sized - assuming its 7.5 US - how would these shoes fit? Are they pretty true to size - length & width? I read another post somewhere where it was mentioned that a half size over EU size would be equal to US sizing - if thats the case this would be equiv. to a EU 6.5 size and be closer to a size 7 US? AE Park Avenue size 7D fit me fine (though a little tight on the sides of the arches)

If all looks well - is the asking price (starting bid 165, BIN 195) for this shoe a good buy?

I am currently working on pretty much building my shoe wardrobe - would these be on par with AE Park Avenues for Interview wear?

Thanks in advance!,

Bob

Stuart's Choice are made by Grenson. Edward Green ceased to be Paul Stuart's supplier of English shoes quite a few years ago.

That said, I believe the size as marked is the U.S. size. They are on a par with Park Avenues... actually they're higher quality, but for the degree of wear, and for black shoes, the price strikes me as high.
