.5 difference in my experience with C&J for RL and Ben Silver vs UK C&J

That is true for RL. I also remember that the Peals are .5. I should add that although I got the info from the Barney's SA, I did not get any shoes there. All of my C&J are from across the pond so UK sizing. I guess I could just wear a 348 and asked for a .5 & 1 difference to see which is closest

The Barney's C&Js I have are sized in US sizes which are .5 different from UK sizes.
Barney's website however lists their C&J by US sizes with a parenthetical full size difference UK translation.
So the Ghillies I just bought are marked 10.5D US but are actually 10UK and are listed on the website as 10.5D (43.5EU 9.5UK).

pretty confusing! thanks for the explanation. I wish they'd just list the UK size; it'd be so much easier that way.

Hey guys - tried on the 325 last today via RL's Marlow Plain Toe Blucher (PTB). It fits me quite nicely as it is a 9D - I originally started this thread to complain about the UK8 Hallam's not fitting me in a 348 last. Knowing my 325 measurements, how can I apply this to other C&J fits?

Thanks!

Careful. I have Clifton 7D, they are tight. I ordered C&J Audley in 5.5E (UK) after trying at C & J store. FWIW I was fitted for 6E in Hallam but it pinched while walking, so I switched to Audley.

I assume you get your 5.5E from the England? For some reason the 337 on 6E feels roomy to me and thinking about trying a 5.5E to see if it may feel better. Never thought of going down in size that much since the 348 fits generally well after a few wears.

You are correct, I get them from Pediwear. I would not have picked 5.5E myself. I was fitted for Audley at C & J store by the SA, the pair fit great. When I asked what size it was, she told me it was 5.5E. I was shocked at first but the shoes were very comfortable.

348 & 341 fits well -1. I've tried on the 337 in 5.5E in the store and it appeared to fit well. I've had a few 6E in the 337 and it is just a tad loose. Maybe I should just suck it up and try a 5.5E to see how it goes.

For Me, TTS 12D
337 last: 11UK
348: 10.5UK
341: 11UK
325: 10.5UK
314: 11UK
358: 11UK

Thanks guys; just re-read this and it seems if I am a 8.5D in the A&E Clifton I should consider sizing down to a 7E (8D) for the 337 last on the Audley? Since I have wide feet I think 7.5E would be better. Was just wondering when you guys say there was a bit of a room sizing down 1 instead of 1.5, how much room extra are we talking about here?

Heel slip, looseness at the tongue (arc of the shoe)?

Second is the Navy blue suede loafers model Teign, sorry - can't get the right hue on the pic

I've been seriously considering these ready for summer.
Surely they will be very comfortable!

First time posting in this thread. This is my current C&J collection. Probably not what you would expect from a newbie 
You'll have to excuse the the crappy resolution and the even crappier lightning conditions.

Worth a repost!

The Westbourne, especially in Black, is pure win - love this shoe

 

[SuitedDx]

I think the Drummond on black is excellent. One of two black footwear I want. The other being a black bal boot.

 

[furo]

Is this also the Drummond?

C&J Wingtip

Prefer the classic black Drummond though (not mine but pic from web):

Love the idea of the purple chukka - no idea where I'd wear it!

Not for the typical customer of Barney's.

I think they would be great with jeans or khakis/chinos.

They sell them at Upper Shoes, french store. http://www.upper-shoes.com/chaussures-luxe-hommes-crockett-and-jones/70,86-chukka.html

Just got these and the seller said he bought them in Sydney at the famous men's store Richards (RIP) around 1976 and never wore them and stored them away.





They have a sort of spade sole. I am wondering what year this design dates from?
