I just got some warm grey and the RG x CP in dark grey. Planning on returning one of them. Haven't seen these in person. Opinions on which is better. I paid $230 vs $300.

Edit: Also, I'm normally a 10.5 in most shoes. I bought a size 43 reading they are long and narrow. Does this sound like the right size for me?

It'll be fine size wise. Keep warm grey. RG ones are just average at best

Wow. Thanks for the info. I figured the RG ones would be better based on the high price. Also, I'm a little worried the warm grey ones I ordered were women's boots. The size is right, 43, but when I click on the email confirmation, it takes me to the women's boot. Could have screwed that order up.

If they don't work out, based on size, let me know. I'd love to take them off your hands for more than you paid.

Can't decide if I should pull the trigger on the RGxCP's in dark grey. I have the tobacco suede CPs and Black zip-ups from SeF.

They are on a good sale right now for $480CAD shipped w/ taxes + duties.

Feel like, as nice as they are, it would have to be a decision based mostly on wanting to add that colour to your lineup, as all of them are pretty similar in terms of the type of silhouette they give

I'm similar to you.

10 in Alden Barrie
10.5 in Vans and Adidas and just about everything else. Occasionally an 11.

I ordered 43's because I have a pretty standard width, or slightly narrow and everyone says these run long.

Yeah, and I don't know if it would provide that much more versatility over my straight black leather side-zips, but the price point is really cheap compared to what it has been all season?
