4. I really, really liked the Kangaroo boots in Tan Bark. I was told that only this leather is available in said color. I liked the color enough that I now plan on ordering an additional pair of boots in it.
I'd like to offer a very fine alternative to a chelsea boot from R.M. Williams - Baxter Boots from Goulburn, NSW, Australia. I think you'll find their Henry Baxter Classic boot is the equal--or close to it--to an R.M. Williams Craftsman boot, albeit with far less variety of styles and colours. Still, the quality is excellent, the Henry Baxter Classic is made mostly by hand in their Goulburn factory, it's a whole cut boot, making it very rare indeed, with a welted sole. Check 'em out at their site (pretty bare bones, but some good info on their company and their boots):
Has anyone found the leather quality to be variable?
What is a good belt to go with the Stockman Buckle Kangaroo in Chestnut? Any suggestions? I ordered them from Nungar last week. Hopefully it won't take too long. I should have gotten a belt with my order I guess.
I am having a tough time figuring out my size. I was in NYC last weekend and tried on a pair of Comfort Craftsman in size 9G. The heel felt perfect, and the width from the heel to the ball of my foot was just right. However, my toes were just a little cramped width-wise, and even though I had maybe 0.8 inches of room between my big toe and the end of the boot, my toe kept bumping up against the top of the boot and thus the boot felt slightly short in length. . . From what I've read, the Comfort Turnouts may have some more room in the toes when compared to the Comfort Craftsman, even if they are listed as the same size and width. . . .
I've also read that if I were to move up to a size 9.5G, there would be no increase in the length of the shoe - only the width would increase. Is this true?
Thanks for the information. Would you say that your 9.5G Turnouts are noticeably wider than your 9G's, or is the main difference just a couple centimeters of extra length? How much room should I have between the end of my toes and the end of the boot? And which size seems to fit better for you - the 9G's or the 9.5G's? The reason I ask is because I think I probably have enough room length-wise in the size 9 (I've got about 0.8 inches of room beyond my big toe), so I'm worried that if I order a 9.5G it could end up being both a little too long and a little too wide. If the 9G in the Turnout will fit a little wider than the 9G Craftsman, and the toe box will be a little higher than the Craftsman so that the toenail on my big toe isn't hitting the top/front of the boot, I think the 9G is probably my size. But, like you said, I don't want to get a boot that's too short. I'm just worried that if I jump up a half size the whole thing could end up being too loose.
