Uhh probably not, sailor last isn't THAT big. 8.5UK sailor prob best for 9UK EGOy. Is the consensus that 8.5 on their sailor last works for say a 9.5uk EG?
Like @WhyUEarly said, probably not. However, I have a couple pairs in 8.5 and the length is fine just a little tight at the ball. With dress socks they work. All that said, UK9 is probably the way to go for youOy. Is the consensus that 8.5 on their sailor last works for say a 9.5uk EG?

Here are a couple…only have about three wears ea. For me the attraction of the leather is its almost roll instead of crease quality, and the texture.Does anyone have pictures of horside shoes/boots?
Im trying to see how they differ from shell cordovan when "worn"
What leather is this?As it happened, I am in their Jodhpurs today.

Got these from Ron Rider back when he was doing special makeups, and they’re actually burgundy.What leather is this?
Zonkey’s brown calf

Sailor is a pretty easy to fit last tbh. I'd take it half down from Barrie or full down from Plaza assuming you take Plaza tts and Barrie half down from brannock. It will have more arch support and a more sculpted heel than Alden's lasts as it's a much more refined shoe.Does anyone have a comparison between the ZB Sailor last and Allen Edmonds or Alden lasts? They have a super cool pair of elephant leather cap toe boots on Sailor, but I'm not sure I want to take a $1200 risk on sizing.
I am familiar with basically every AE last and Aberdeen, Plaza, and Barrie for Alden.
