Any idea if they can order narrow widths? I tried calling them but they're currently closed. Don't want to miss this deal!
If you get hold of them I’m sure they can get the narrow widths! You may have to wait though in case they have to order them from aus. I waited a couple of weeks for my chinchillas as they had to order my size from aus

Just shot him a message there.



How do you text with him? I'm in the US so not sure if it has to be int'l texting.
Ah, stick to Instagram then! Im uk based so no cost to text. Just a mobile listed as company number initially texted and randomly that’s how we’ve communicated!

Two questions, one practical the other advice-based:
  • First, can anyone share pictures of the black Vesta or Distressed Cowhide leathers? I'm doing some MTO options but can't decide which of those more textured leathers I'd like to try.
  • Second, I'm getting a pair of in mid-brown, either Tobacco Suede or Nutmeg Yearling. Can anyone who's gotten either color recently comment on the color depth, quality, etc of either of those hides?
Many thanks!

I don’t own either tobacco suede or the nutmeg yearling, but have seen both in person. Personally I would go for the suede. The nutmeg looks very bland and borning to me! Others of course may like it.

If it’s possible I would get the tobacco suede with the comfort sold

Wha
Sorry, I hate to be that guy, but I wanted to jump on this sale while it was still active.

I’m looking for help on my sizing for a pair of the comforts. I measured my foot this morning (~275 mm long, ~260 mm wide), and think I’d fit comfortably in a size 9 according to this chart?

https://www.rmwilliams.com.au/buyer-s-guide:-men-s-boots/mens_boots_buyers_guide.html?lang=en_AU

Does that sound right?

Going by the chart you would need h fitting?

Also size 9 would leave you only 1mm, I would say go 9.5



What size are you normally in shoes? Uk sizing?

Thank you. That seemed big based on my other shoe sizes, so I just measured a few more times and got a little over 270 mm long and 250 mm wide. I feel like my measurement changes every time I retry though. Ugh

I'm usually an 8.5 UK. That's based on 2 different lasts of Meermin shoes, and I also just got a pair of Grant Stone Diesel boots in 9.5 US. I also wear a 42 in Common Projects Achilles.

Based on that I would go size 9, worse case and always exchange them ‍♂️

Message them directly they should be able to get your size at the discount price, even if they have to order it from aus.

On a separate note jsut seen on the rm website they have the gardener in tan/baordeux/black st £250

The discount is definitely still active. Just ordered the Chocolate Suede Comfort craftsman in 10.5 H fitting. They are being ordered from Aus.
