I was finally able to try the Aberdeen on not that long ago in what I thought would be my size, 8.5D. I was surprised how big it ended up feeling. They didn't have an 8D to compare, but I feel like that would have been the better size. The Plaza shoe I have fits really well in an 8.5D.

Maiden voyage for my snuff suede loafers.
I ordered these from my local shop at the end of the day on Friday and they arrived Tuesday. I know these are a standard model, but I wish Alden could always be that speedy!

Aberdeen can be a weird one. It is the only last where, unless it is a lace-up, I need to drop to a C width, when I am typically a D width. But, if you wear a 8D in a Barrie, I will bet $5 that your big toe will rub on a 8D in the Aberdeen, as the toe box tapers quickly.

That is a possibility. The shoe just felt huge. Even in the heel.

Food for thought.....I guess I will have to wait to try a pair on before buying. I thought I would just go with my plaza size originally.

It was either the NST or the medallion cap toe blucher. They had both, but I forget which they had in an 8.5.
