Break in was no big deal. Very comfortable from the beginning.
Cords are from Marni like 7 years ago.

I am an 8.5E TTS and that is what I take with Alden Grant/Hampton - I was thinking for CJ Coniston I would need 7.5F, but I took 8UK and it its near identical to my 8.5E Grant in length and width. Good fit even though I went down .5 size

Woah. You went .5 size down from Grant/Hampton....I went .5 size down from Barrie & Trubalance and I was close to calling it a sizing mistake. The initial try on was w/ a pair of very thin dress socks, so I tried them on Darn Tough medium/thick socks and it was a good fit. Although, they look slim in profile, on my feet they feel like damn tanks. My Viberg Boondockers on 1035 feel a bit slimmer. I’m a 9.5 Barrie and went w 9UK 325 (Coniston), I was close to believing I needed a 8.5UK. It seems like the toe box is bit tall for my feet and the top of the shaft easily warps my shin to the point their isn’t a gap. I looked at pictures and it seems like this is the case for most Coniston owners.

Here are my UK8 Conistons/325 next to my 8.5E Grant boots. You can see they are about the same length and width.
I am a wide foot, so going UK7.5 would of made them too tight I think. I heard from others that the scotch grain leather CJ uses doesn't stretch much - if at all

Love the 376 last!

Love the 376 last!

As far as C&J loafer lasts go (terrible as they are), the 376 last is mildly acceptable.

Is the Whiskey Galway Double Leather still alive? I initially thought it would fill quickly..

 

[harveyrabbit]

Conistons (3rd wear)

Only 3 spots left on Galway 2 Whiskey double leather.. $750 for those are an absolute deal.. Cordovan boots are a grand mostly now or will soon be. Whiskey Harlech’s are $1200 now. These are different.. very cool design.
