Crockett and Jones color #8 boots for Brooks Brothers on the 240 last. I personally take the same size as Barrie on the 240.

Holy Moly! What a nice pair of boots!! What UK size do you wear in the 325Last?
I assume your US Barrie Size is the same size of your Peal 240 US?

Not that person, but I wear U.S. 8.5D in these and UK 7.5D in the Conistons, definitely snug, fit, but half a size up was too roomy for me.

I wear US 12 in the Peal and co 240 last pebble grain cap toes and UK 11 on the 325 last if that helps?

I would say there is very little in it between the two. The 325 is marginally roomier I would say

Thanks! They are very nice, and are my 2nd favorite pair of boots these days.

Not that person, but I wear U.S. 8.5D in these and UK 7.5D in the Conistons, definitely snug, fit, but half a size up was too roomy for me.

In my case, the toe area is the widest part of my feet and I have high insteps. For reference, my Brannock is 8.5 D/E.
I can do Alden Barrie on 8 C/D or 8 C/E (for those folks that might be wondering, the first letter(C) is for the heel). I take the Barrie C/E on boots with thicker socks.

The 240 last is slightly more slick than Barrie when comparing them on the same size and width. The fit is a bit more snug in the toe area on the 240 last when compared to Barrie, but i can manage with thinner socks.

Based on my toes being the widest part of my feet:
240 Last US = Barrie US AND .5 > 325 Last UK
Roughly:
8D on 240 last ~ 8D on Barrie last ~ 7.5E UK on 325

From the above sequence, the 325 is the roomiest for my toes, which i like.
