Why would you buy them if you don't want them?
Nothing wrong with AEs but if all you have is 3 pairs of em, that's a pretty dull wardrobe.

send them back ... you can mess up your feet wearing too short ... curled toes ... thickened toenails ... bunions ... etc

Here's some photos of my Gold MC boots. As others have mentioned I found my Alden Barrie size to be the same as these. They are a little bit wider feeling, I would compare it to be the width difference between Barrie and Trubalance lasts. I took a photo of my size 10D Barrie pitt boot next to my 10 Tricker's boot for comparison.

I also tried on a 9.5 which was too snug. If one of my feet wasn't wider than the other it would have been really close.

I'm liking the Gold MC. As far as color name's go it sure sounds cooler than Nut Brown.

excuse the roll on my jeans, i was trying to get the full boot in there. the light is indoor flash/ dirty mirror...

Received the Coffee Derby Brogue Boots and I definitely like the color. I'm a true 11.5 and bought these in a 10.5. Unfortunately they are just a bit tight at the toe. I could probably deal if I wore dress/thin socks, but will return these. If anyone is interested, PM me Excuse the iPhone pic.

If anyone is interested, I ordered a pair of Stow Boots in the color Gold MC size UK 10.5 that are a bit too big for me. I would sell them at my cost plus fees less the $5.75 it would cost me to ship it back to STP.

Paid $296.25 (30% off + $16.95 shipping).

Plus: ~$15 shipping + $10 paypal fee - $5.75 shipping back to STP

$315 shipped to you

If no interest, I will ship them back on Monday.

Thanks.

PM me if you are interested.

"I'm liking the Gold MC. As far as color name's go it sure sounds cooler than Nut Brown."

I actually ordered both colors. To my undiscerning eye, they looked the same. I kept the Gold MC.

They do run wide, which is good for me, and the UK to US conversion seems to be a little bigger than a half size up and a little smaller than whole size up. Eg, UK10 = US10 3/4.

 

[slide13]

I think that sizing is exactly right, about 3/4 size larger then marked. I wear 11 in the Barrie and Trubalance lasts and ordered a 10.5 in these and they are feeling a little too small, currently trying to decide if I can keep them or if they'll need to go back or be sold. I've tried on 10.5 Barrie lasted boots before and those were smaller, so these seem to fit about 1/4 size bigger than Barrie last, or 3/4 sizes bigger then normal. I really want to be able to keep these...but my toes are touching the end when I stand up I'm afraid...not looking good.

Mine were too small. I'm US11.5 and purchased UK10.5. Much as I liked the boots I returned them. They are boots, you may end up walking quite a bit in them and wanting to wear some medium weight socks. If anything they should fit a little loose, more like gym shoes and not like a dress shoe.

Received the nut brown in UK11 and they fit great with medium weight socks. The marking reads 10 "e" 5, which I presume is a Trickers sizing nuance.

Thanks OP.

Are you guys referring to UK or US sizing? I is confused.

I'm a US8D in Alden Indy and typially a US 8-8.5D in dress shoes, and a UK 7 in Grensons. I was almost sure I'd be a UK7 in the 5 fitting Tricker's country last, but now I am not so sure anymore

 

[hefner]

By the way, do you all recommend putting toe and heel taps on the boots? Thanks.

 

[hboogz]

I'm referring to the UK sizing. As others have mentioned these (brogue boots) fit closer to 3/4 bigger than your true size.

I'm a true US11.5 but I'm UK10 in grenson stanley's and with these Trickers I'm a UK11. Although the script inside the boot reads 10 "E" 5

Probably not necessary with the dainite soles.
