I got a pair at the first markdown at 50% off, $400 shipped? I was able to pass to a fellow member at my cost. But I know some have scored 70% or 80% but that's rare. $1000 is nuts, that pairs is on there forever though (I also a size 9)

I bought the black Zabri boots from Mr. Porter on the initial 50% off...price was $312.50 + import costs (I am in Canada). At my door - and on my feet - for a shade over $400USD. Amazing deal! (But I am aware that returned pairs sold from Mr. P in the following weeks for even deeper discounts...!)

This one goes out to the small foot crew.

If you're interested, you'll have to buy a ticket (https://heritage-onlinefes.myshopif...LHDKDY*MTYzOTI0Njg1My44LjEuMTYzOTI0NjkxNS42MA..) to get into the digital festival.

If the bourbon mules were in 2010 or a size up, I'd be all over them but this feels like an inopportune moment to try to 2030 slipper last for the first time.

I saw your post in GYW about this. You said you do a 10.5 AJ1 in thin socks as well. I do a 10.5 AJ1 in typical Nike crew socks and they're just a little loose. I also do 9.5D in Iron Rangers and a 9 in the 2030 last in the same thickness wool socks. If you're buying an older pair of Vibergs, go 10. If you're buying a 2020 or newer model, go 9.5.

I stopped by a red wing store to check my brannock size. Pretty much right at 10.5D. Makes sense given what I wear in Air Jordan 1s.

The heel to ball is the more important measurement and that says you're a 13? Are you sure that slider is right?

The slider is wrong in the picture of the left. It must have moved when the salesman took his hand away. I positioned the right and got a picture.

Oh phew. That was a huge gap. That's got you at an 11. I would remeasure the other foot just to be sure when you get a chance. But you should size off of the heel to ball. Jordans are weird and not a good sizing reference. I wear an 11 in AJ1, 3, 4, 11, 13, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 and dub zero lol but I wear a 10 in most other sneakers and am a 9.5D brannock.

Whoa. That’s wild.

I’m also a 10.5 in Air Max 90’s (another favorite of mine). but they’re a little tighter than the AJ1’s.

The Red Wing 8 last (Iron Ranger/Beckman) fits me great in a 10. I feel like I see quite a few people who wear the same in IR’s as the 2030.

10.5 HTT and an 11 HTB you can definitely fit an IR in an 10. I can fit IR in an 8.5, but prefer the no. 8 last in a 9.

The only interesting thing besides the shell is pigment brown workshoe butt derbys in a few sizes. I grabbed some Jodhs, I think? The whole order process was confusing. Not a great sale, was 550 shipped.
