Simply spectacular, DJ - what was the original color? Ravello?

Is there anyone here who does not wear the same size in Barrie and Trubalance?

Me too. I wear TTS in Barrie. Half size down for Trubalance.

Interesting. I go a half size down for Barrie. Sounds like I should definitely go a half size down for Trubalance, too. I have several pairs of Aldens, but no Indys yet

Thanks! These are cigar.

I sometimes take TTS in TB. TSM, for example, recommends TTS for TB.

TB is wider than Barrie but it's slightly shorter and has less volume/instep room so it depends how your feet are shaped. I take them both the same size but I get a better fit with Barrie.

I have high arches, so perhaps TTS on TB would be best to try. I can’t afford to lose instep room compared to Barrie.

I go half a size down in TB, but can't fit Barrie in any size/width. Just doesn't work for me.
