How are these supposed to fit? I just bought a pair online and they feel really loose on my feet because of the silly laces. Is that right?

manupod · Apr 27, 2009

Also, should I treat them with anything? I bought the brown suade (and tan suade birkenstock clogs)

Its already been talked about a lot on this thread, you should size down 1/2 or 1 size.

Is there a retail chain that sells the desert boots so I can have them check them out and see if they're fitting right? I'm a 13, so I can't drop down a 1/2 size...grr

anyone use obenaufs LP on their beeswax db's? does it darken the leather?

cr1234 · Apr 27, 2009

Just bought a pair in Sand, and I sized down 1 (to a 9). They seem pretty tight, but my heel moved around a lot in the 9.5s. Can I expect these to stretch out a bit, or should I return them for 9.5s?

Dying blue would be cool.

justchillaxing · Apr 28, 2009

The ebay seller has them in blue and green.

FYI, J Crew added a "salt" (i.e. white) version of its Macalister desert boot

I have them in the dark khaki, these are great shoes. Salt looks great too. If I didn't have a Barneys stonish desert boot I'd buy them.
